00:50And I've stopped it.
00:52And it's still pumping.
00:54Oh, no.
00:55Oh, no!
00:56I knew this was going to happen!
00:57I knew this was going to happen!
00:58What's up?
01:01In the last few years, the number of Americans on the road has skyrocketed.
01:06And that means more traffic, more accidents, and also more rage.
01:15rage, with violent road rage up nearly 500 percent, this is where the rubber meets the road.
01:44what's this lady doing knowing basic traffic laws like passing rules or how to handle a four-way stop
01:54is something every driver should have down pat
02:03but according to one survey of licensed drivers 44 percent of them
02:07would fail a written driver's test if they had to take it today
02:16a fact that can prove incredibly frustrating to others who might have to deal with these
02:21drivers confusion i can't believe it lady hi come on what are you doing but be warned
02:30any attempt to confront them directly i don't know what you're doing
02:35might not be appreciated get some help get some help please i don't know what
02:40you need help and in some cases could turn ugly very quickly in minneapolis minnesota
02:56as a bicyclist records a pleasant sunny ride
03:09suddenly his good spirits are infringed upon by a motorcyclist who he believes passed within three
03:15feet of him less than the legally required buffer space so at the next intersection
03:22in the future when passing a cyclist what in the future when you pass a cyclist you have to give
03:28three you have to use a turn signal do you have a do you have a license in the state
03:33of minnesota
03:34you made a promise to the people of this community and you're breaking that promise
03:41yeah so you're gonna threaten me on camera that's assault you said you're gonna hurt me
03:47me how about you obey the wall you agreed to up i don't got one too because you're wrinkly and
03:56and you don't think it looks like it tastes very good all right i will
04:04oh i'm sorry did you just threaten me again sir
04:08well you know what if you give me the three feet you're supposed to get me that wouldn't happen would
04:14it yeah you can sir the unproductive conversation is clearly frustrating to the cyclist
04:22you're gonna get arrested sir and he soon decides
04:33he's not letting it go
04:42and with the biker now ahead of the cyclist again the cyclist moves in behind him appearing to ride
04:51tight on the motorcycle's rear tire for several blocks until
05:09and that's when things get really testy
05:13i have a problem with people in danger
05:18you just assaulted me out of my face that you keep plugging in
05:24you assaulted me
05:31stupid idiot you just got yourself jail time for no reason
05:37that's fine all right i assume you're the sort of person who's done that before
05:44the ugly drawing fortunately ends without any fisticuffs
05:49and the cyclist ultimately decides not to involve authorities
05:55perhaps having learned that when dealing with the driver's perceived transgressions
06:00what in the future when you pass a cyclist you have to give us three
06:04sometimes it's best to just let things go
06:08you sir you're a real piece of human being
06:12and try to enjoy the rest of your day
06:14what's your problem boy i have a problem with people in danger
06:28gun violence on america's roads has become an epidemic
06:33with a recent analysis finding that over the past decade road rage incidents involving a firearm
06:39and nobody play that have more than quintupled
06:51and when there are that many angry drivers for that quick on the trigger
07:00it puts everyone in danger in miami florida a van pulls into a gas station during the morning
07:09rush hour and seconds later a minivan pulls in nearby
07:16which according to the sheriff's press release was just involved in a road altercation with the van
07:23an altercation that it now seems isn't over
07:33the minivan driver's apparent aggression
07:37prompts the van driver to pull out a gun
07:43and though it causes the minivan driver to run back to his vehicle
07:48he re-emerges moments later with according to the sheriff's press release a gun of his own
08:06a road rage incident that reportedly began moments ago
08:11a road rage incident that reportedly began moments ago reignites at a gas station but this time
08:16when one of the men pulls a gun
08:19the other runs back to his vehicle and according to the sheriff's press release gets his own
08:30an apparent shot sends the minivan driver running for cover behind his vehicle
08:36as the van driver continues to keep watch until it appears he shoots again even as an unwitting
08:45commuter pulls into the line of fire the van driver finally seems to realize the smart move is to back
08:52away the minivan driver continues to take cover behind his vehicle and when it finally looks clear
09:01he heads for his driver's door but less than 90 seconds after the first shot was fired
09:08he's ordered back out of his vehicle and onto the ground by an officer who was just at a nearby
09:14intersection when he heard the initial gunfire and with backup units already arriving
09:24both men are swiftly detained
09:27as a production according to court records the case against the van driver has been dismissed
09:33while the minivan driver faces charges of improper exhibition of a firearm or weapon
09:38and attempted battery his case is still ongoing but both are fortunate that neither they nor any
09:46bystanders were harmed in this horrifying and ballistic confrontation
09:59only in the world they do this kind of questionable judgment on the road
10:07bam nothing but horsepower check it out
10:15seems to be an all too common occurrence
10:20and though most drivers should know better perhaps it's best to teach them the ropes
10:27sooner rather than later in oklahoma
10:33an officer has just pulled someone over in a residential neighborhood for a very unique transgression
10:51the officer is friends with the girl's parents
10:57what you did stop did you have both hands on the steering wheel
11:01do you have a driver's license yeah you do and he plays this pretend stop
11:09by the book
11:11what are we doing here
11:16you got insurance
11:19yeah do you spell insurance
11:21though she fails the field spelling test be careful okay he chooses to leave her with a warning
11:29and a valuable life lesson
11:32that even if you're over the cute limit
11:35do you have a driver's license you do
11:38it doesn't mean you're above the law
11:41you got insurance
11:43yeah
11:44do you spell insurance
11:45it doesn't mean you're above the law
11:52you're above the law
11:54despite the persistent myth that being ejected from a vehicle can help someone survive a crash
12:03according to the national highway traffic safety administration ejection greatly increases the risk of death
12:10i need the ambulance
12:12thankfully per a media source this individual survives
12:16and crashes like these are increasingly rare for anyone in a passenger car who's wearing proper safety restraints
12:25but with motorcycles getting ejected
12:33is a much more common and potentially devastating event
12:39when this biker hits an embankment beside a residential driveway
12:44he's flung like a rag doll toward the house
12:47where unbelievably
12:50he skids through a doorway as his bike slams the wall
12:55but incredibly moments later the biker emerges seemingly okay
13:01surely thanks in part to his riding suit and helmet
13:04it but there are some places where even full protective gear might not be enough
13:11in montreal
13:16a truck driver on the interstate heads for an off-ramp connector as he chats on the phone
13:21what i didn't even made it to i thought it was just when suddenly
13:28holy
13:56a motorcyclist swings too wide on the curb
14:00hits the side wall and launches over the rail
14:07holy
14:08the stunned trucker pulls to a stop
14:12as the riderless cycle continues his trek out of sight
14:17hold on i gotta go
14:20the trucker spots the biker below
14:23and immediately looks for help
14:31incredibly just 45 seconds after the crash
14:36a police cruiser happens upon the scene
14:45since the connector is a descending off-ramp
14:48the fall though significant was slightly mitigated
14:53and as such according to news reports police say the motorcyclists suffer serious but non-life-threatening injuries
15:04a frightening reminder to all bikers to ride with great care
15:08because even a small miscalculation
15:24womenstating and as such by the car for the car and then all the cars are moving to the coast
15:27and then all of a sudden it is not a lot of snow to go through the road
15:31and also the on right edge of the road
15:42But every now and then, they do happen.
15:54And while it's a good idea to familiarize oneself
15:57with what actions to take in these situations,
16:04just in case,
16:07there are some hidden dangers that are less obvious than others,
16:10and knowing how to avoid them beforehand
16:13could be critical.
16:18At a gas station in China,
16:20a fuel attendant spots a leak under a vehicle
16:23with a driver and a passenger in back.
16:27And when the driver checks it out...
16:37In China,
16:38a gas attendant sees fuel leaking under a vehicle
16:41with a driver and passenger aboard.
16:44And when the driver gets out...
16:53According to the footage source,
16:55as the driver slides out of his seat to investigate,
16:58there's a buildup of static charge
17:00that sparks an inferno.
17:05The driver tries to move the van
17:07as the attendant grabs an extinguisher.
17:10But when the driver has to bail,
17:14so does his passenger,
17:16who, horrifyingly,
17:18is on fire.
17:23The driver runs in with an extinguisher,
17:26dousing the passenger,
17:28then joining the attendant.
17:30And working together,
17:33they finally quell the flames.
17:36The passenger reportedly suffers burns,
17:39but thankfully,
17:40no lives are lost.
17:42The incident serves as a devastating example
17:45of how,
17:47when it comes to any kind of flammable substance,
17:51one needs to be aware
17:53of every single move.
18:00For many minor accidents...
18:02I'm so sorry!
18:04Police, thankfully,
18:05aren't necessary,
18:06as insurance can handle
18:08most like claims themselves.
18:10Why did you hit my truck?
18:13But for a crash
18:15that could be more significant...
18:19Getting authorities involved
18:21is always a good idea.
18:26Especially if the actions
18:27of someone involved in the crash
18:32become legally questionable.
18:34Stop him!
18:35Stop him!
18:37Get the tag!
18:38Get the tag!
18:40The group of bikers
18:41appear to do the right thing
18:43and document the scene,
18:44while leaving the motorist
18:46who seemed to exit the area
18:47to the police.
18:50Really?
18:51That don't make no sense.
18:54Unfortunately,
18:55not all motorists
18:56are quite as level-headed.
18:59in St. Louis.
19:03For reasons that are unclear...
19:06Oh!
19:08...two vehicles engage
19:10in a bizarre pushing match
19:11in the street.
19:13And it appears,
19:15at least at this point,
19:17police are not yet involved.
19:26The person filming
19:28wisely pulls out of the way.
19:30Don't do it!
19:35And as the odd confrontation continues...
19:41With neither vehicle gaining any ground...
19:48...the pickup appears
19:49to start backing away.
19:51Oh, my God.
19:52But the station wagon
19:54doesn't seem inclined
19:55to let it go.
19:56Oh, my God.
19:58Instead,
19:59forcing the issue
20:00back onto the street...
20:02He is literally
20:03following you.
20:05...and into the flow
20:07of passing traffic.
20:11Seconds later...
20:14...the pickup finds itself
20:16cornered in the driveway...
20:18He is serious about this floor.
20:21...before finally deciding
20:23that enough...
20:24...is enough.
20:32When the pickup tries
20:33to sneak past...
20:37...the wagon circles backward...
20:42...appearing to strike the pickup
20:43on the side...
20:44...which continues on regardless...
20:47...leaving the wagon...
20:48...with a battered bumper.
20:52The unruly showdown ends...
20:55...without the benefit
20:55of police intervention.
20:58Which means...
21:00...instead of a peaceful resolution...
21:03...both drivers...
21:05...in this ill-advised conflict...
21:06...were left...
21:10...with unnecessary...
21:11...and possibly very expensive...
21:13...with battle scars.
