00:11I have a problem with people endangering us.
00:14Yeah, I have a problem with people.
00:16You just assaulted me out of cameras.
00:18They're not.
00:19You can't get your camera out of my face
00:21that you keep clicking in.
00:25Go!
00:26Go!
00:28Go!
00:33Holy .
00:34I guess you know how fast you're going back there?
00:37What do you do?
00:48All right, this is pumping.
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!
00:58I knew it!
00:58What the ?
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.
01:15You got bombs, step out your car!
01:18With violent road rage up nearly 500%.
01:30This is where the rubber meets the road.
01:44What's this lady doing?
01:48Knowing basic traffic laws, like passing rules, or how to handle a four-way stop, is something
01:55every driver should have down pat.
02:03But according to one survey of licensed drivers, 44% of them would fail a written driver's test if they
02:13had to take it today.
02:16A fact that can prove incredibly frustrating to others, who might have to deal with these drivers' confusion.
02:23I can't believe it, lady.
02:26Hi.
02:27Come on, what are you doing?
02:29But be warned.
02:30Any attempt to confront them directly...
02:33I don't know what you're doing.
02:35...might not be appreciated.
02:37Get some help.
02:38Huh?
02:39Get some help, please.
02:40I don't know what you...
02:40You need help.
02:41You're a .
02:44And in some cases, could turn ugly very quickly.
02:49In Minneapolis, Minnesota.
02:53Never grow old.
02:56As a bicyclist records a pleasant sunny ride.
03:00There's a land where never grow old.
03:09Suddenly, his good spirits are infringed upon by a motorcyclist, who he believes passed within three feet of him.
03:16Less than the legally required buffer space.
03:19So at the next intersection...
03:22In the future when passing a cyclist...
03:25What?
03:26In the future when you pass a cyclist, you have to give three .
03:29You have to use a turn signal.
03:31Do you have a license in the state of Minnesota?
03:34You made a promise to the people of this community.
03:37And you're breaking that promise.
03:38I'm making a promise to you right now.
03:40Yeah?
03:40I'm getting my way.
03:41So you're gonna threaten me on camera?
03:43That's assault.
03:45No, you're gonna threaten me.
03:46You said you were gonna hurt me.
03:47I don't want to play you.
03:48How about you obey the law?
03:50You agreed to go.
03:53I don't want to, because you're wrinkly and and you don't think it looks like your tastes very good.
04:00All right, I will.
04:04Oh, I'm sorry.
04:05Did you just threaten me again, sir?
04:08Well, you know what?
04:09If you give me the three feet you're supposed to give me, that wouldn't happen, would it?
04:14Yeah, you can my , sir.
04:16The unproductive conversation is clearly frustrating to the cyclist.
04:22You're gonna get arrested, sir.
04:24And he soon decides.
04:29Eat, and die.
04:30Eat, and die.
04:33Eat, and die.
04:33.
04:33He's not letting it go.
04:37.
04:38You, sir.
04:40You're a real piece of .
04:41And with the biker now ahead of the cyclist again.
04:46The cyclist moves in behind him.
04:49Appearing to ride tight on the motorcycle's rear tire.
04:53For several blocks.
04:56Until.
05:08And that's when things get really testy.
05:12.
05:24.
05:25.
05:25You better, okay.
05:27.
05:27Here I am.
05:30Stupid idiot.
05:32You just got yourself jail time for no reason.
05:37That's fine.
05:38All right.
05:39I assume you're the sort of person who's done that before.
05:44The ugly jawing 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?
06:01In the future when you pass the cyclist you have to give three .
06:04Sometimes it's best to just let things go.
06:08.
06:08you, sir.
06:09You're a real piece of .
06:11And try to enjoy the rest of your day.
06:14What's your problem, boy?
06:16I have a problem with people in danger of life.
06:18I have a problem with people.
06:19.
06:20.
06:26Go!
06:27Go!
06:28Go!
06:28Gun violence on America's roads has become an epidemic.
06:32Go!
06:33Go!
06:34With a recent analysis finding that over the past decade road rage incidents involving
06:39a firearm.
06:40Ain't nobody playing it!
06:41Go!
06:42Go!
06:42Go!
06:43Have more than quintupled.
06:44Go!
06:46Go!
06:51Let's .
06:52And when there are that many angry drivers who are that quick on the trigger.
07:00It puts everyone in danger.
07:04In Miami, Florida, a van pulls into a gas station during the morning rush hour, and seconds later, a minivan
07:14pulls in nearby, which, according to the sheriff's press release, was just involved in a road altercation with the van,
07:22an altercation that, it now seems, isn't over.
07:33The minivan driver's apparent aggression prompts the van driver to pull out a gun.
07:43And though it causes the minivan driver to run back to his vehicle, he reemerges moments later with, according to
07:51the sheriff's press release, a gun of his own.
08:04In Miami, a road rage incident that reportedly began moments ago reignites at a gas station.
08:15But this time, when one of the men pulls a gun, the other runs back to his vehicle, and, according
08:23to the sheriff's press release, gets his own.
08:29An 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 commuter pulls
08:46into the line of fire.
08:48The van driver finally seems to realize the smart move is to back away.
08:53The minivan driver continues to take cover behind his vehicle.
08:57And when it finally looks clear, he heads for his driver's door.
09:03But less than 90 seconds after the first shot was fired, he's ordered back out of his vehicle and onto
09:10the ground
09:11by an officer who was just at a nearby intersection when he heard the initial gunfire.
09:18And with backup units already arriving, both 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 and attempted battery, his case is
09:42still ongoing.
09:43But both are fortunate that neither they nor any bystanders were harmed in this horrifying and ballistic confrontation.
09:59Only in the world can they do this kind of s***.
10:02Questionable judgment on the road.
10:07Bam! Nothing but horsepower. Check it out!
10:13That goes in water!
10:15Seems to be an all-too-common occurrence.
10:17That goes in water!
10:19And though most drivers should know better, perhaps it's best to teach them the ropes.
10:27Sooner rather than later.
10:30In Oklahoma.
10:32Young lady.
10:33An officer has just pulled someone over in a residential neighborhood for a very unique transgression.
10:42Driving while adorable.
10:46You know how fast you're going back there?
10:49You do?
10:50How fast are you going?
10:52The officer is friends with the girl's parents.
10:55Huh?
10:56Stop.
10:56What?
10:58You did stop.
10:59Did you have both hands on the steering wheel?
11:02Do you have a driver's license?
11:04You do?
11:05And he plays this pretend stop...
11:09By the book.
11:10Put your hand right and say, put your hand up in.
11:12Hey.
11:13Yeah, what are we doing here?
11:16You got insurance?
11:18Yeah?
11:19Do you spell insurance?
11:21No.
11:23Though she fails the field spelling test...
11:25Be careful, okay?
11:26...he chooses to leave her with a warning.
11:29And a valuable life lesson.
11:31Young lady.
11:32That even if you're over the cute limit...
11:35Do you have a driver's license?
11:37You do?
11:38It doesn't mean you're above the law.
11:41You got insurance?
11:43Yeah?
11:44Do you spell insurance?
11:46No.
11:53Despite 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 an 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.
12:46Where, unbelievably, he 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.
13:05But there are some places where even full protective gear might not be enough.
13:12In Montreal...
13:14Never said a word to any clue.
13:16A truck driver on the interstate heads for an off-ramp connector as he chats on the phone.
13:21What?
13:22I didn't think we made it to it. I thought it was just...
13:24When suddenly...
13:29Holy...
13:56A motorcyclist swings too wide on the curb.
13:59Hits 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.
14:32Incredibly, just 45 seconds after the crash, a police cruiser happens upon the scene.
14:45Since the connector is a descending off-ramp, the fall, though significant, was slightly mitigated.
14:54And 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...
15:13Holy...
15:14...can have huge consequences.
15:19Holy...
15:33Dangerous mishaps at the gas pump are relatively uncommon.
15:36I hope it stops when it's full and doesn't overflow.
15:41But, every now and then...
15:44Still helping.
15:45...they do happen.
15:47Oh, no.
15:48Oh, no!
15:49I knew this was gonna happen!
15:52What the...
15:54And while it's a good idea to familiarize oneself with what actions to take in these situations...
16:03Oh, no.
16:04...just in case...
16:06Oh, no.
16:07...there are some hidden dangers that are less obvious than others...
16:10...and knowing how to avoid them beforehand...
16:13Oh, no!
16:16...could be critical.
16:18At a gas station in China...
16:20...a fuel attendant spots a leak under a vehicle with a driver and a passenger in back.
16:27And when the driver checks it out...
16:37In China, a gas attendant sees fuel leaking under a vehicle with a driver and passenger aboard.
16:44And when the driver gets out...
16:53According to the footage source, as the driver slides out of his seat to investigate...
16:58There's a buildup of static charge...
17:01...that sparks...
17:03...an inferno.
17:05The driver tries to move the van...
17:07...as the attendant grabs an extinguisher.
17:10But when the driver has to bail...
17:14...so does his passenger...
17:16...who, horrifyingly...
17:18...is on fire.
17:23The driver runs in with an extinguisher...
17:26...dousing the passenger...
17:27...then joining the attendant.
17:30And working together...
17:33...they finally quell the flames.
17:36The passenger reportedly suffers burns...
17:39...but thankfully, no lives are lost.
17:42The incident serves as a devastating example...
17:47...of how when it comes to any kind of flammable substance...
17:52...one needs to be aware...
17:53...of every single move.
18:00For many minor accidents...
18:02I'm so sorry!
18:04Police, thankfully, aren't necessary...
18:06...as insurance can handle most like claims themselves.
18:10Why did you hit my truck?
18:13Before a crash that could be more significant...
18:19...getting authorities involved is always a good idea.
18:26Especially if the actions of someone involved in the crash...
18:32...become legally questionable.
18:34Stop him! Stop him!
18:37Get the tag! Get the tag!
18:40The group of bikers appear to do the right thing...
18:43...and document the scene...
18:44...while leaving the motorist...
18:46...who seemed to exit the area...
18:48...to the police.
18:49Really?
18:51That don't make no sense.
18:54Unfortunately, not all motorists...
18:56...are quite as level-headed.
18:59In St. Louis...
19:03...for reasons that are unclear...
19:08...two vehicles engage in a bizarre pushing match...
19:11...in the street.
19:13And it appears, at least at this point...
19:17...police are not yet involved.
19:20Don't do it!
19:25Don't do it!
19:27The person filming wisely pulls out of the way.
19:30Don't do it!
19:35And as the odd confrontation continues...
19:41...with neither vehicle gaining any ground...
19:48...the pickup appears to start backing away...
19:52...but the station wagon doesn't seem inclined to let it go...
19:58...instead, forcing the issue back onto the street...
20:02He is literally following you!
20:05...and into the flow of passing traffic.
20:10Seconds later...
20:14...the pickup finds itself cornered in the driveway...
20:18...he is serious about this floor!
20:21...before finally deciding that enough...
20:24...is enough.
20:32When the pickup tries to sneak past...
20:37...the wagon circles backward...
20:42...appearing to strike the pickup on the side...
20:44...which continues on regardless...
20:47...leaving the wagon with a battered bumper.
20:50Oh!
20:52The unruly showdown ends...
20:54...without the benefit of police intervention.
20:59Which means, instead of a peaceful resolution...
21:03...both drivers in this ill-advised conflict were left...
21:09...with unnecessary and possibly very expensive battle scars.
