00:11Oh, they're gonna hit! They're idiots!
00:14Oh, he's taking off! Oh, f**k!
00:19Oh, my God.
00:22Look at this! Oh, my God.
00:24Oh, f**k! So when you slam on your f**king lights, I'm just supposed to immediately, my car's supposed to stop.
00:29Yeah, because you're in the car. Call out when the f**king rain is raining.
00:33Get the f**king secret because that f**k is on lights, your light bulb!
00:49Call somebody else to f**king that d**k.
00:51Exactly. I don't know you. Exactly.
00:53Do you know why? Because you're an idiot.
00:56Oh, I'm an idiot? I don't know any idiot.
00:57Oh, who would you call a f**k if I got out of this car?
01:02In the last few years, the number of Americans on the road has skyrocketed.
01:08And that means more traffic, more accidents, and also more rage.
01:17Yo, bro, sip out your car!
01:20With violent road rage up nearly 500%.
01:32This is where the rubber meets the road.
01:45Oh, shh!
01:46Oh, they're gonna hit. They're gonna hit. And they hit.
01:49Although sharing the road should be a common agreement among all drivers.
01:53My God, these idiots.
01:54They're idiots, yeah.
01:57Disputes over the right-of-way remain a major cause of road rage.
02:01They broke...
02:02They're idiots. They're mirrors all just screaming at each other.
02:04For these vehicles, what appears to be a contentious merge...
02:08They broke each other's mirrors.
02:09Oh, he got out of the car. This guy's getting out of the car.
02:12...becomes an up-close confrontation as two men emerge from the red car...
02:17We're gonna be going ahead of these guys here real soon.
02:20...and physically express their frustration with the other driver.
02:24Oh, he's taking off. Oh, shh!
02:29Oh, my God.
02:32Look at this.
02:33Oh, my God.
02:34Oh, shh!
02:35Oh, my God.
02:38Oh, my God.
02:41Thankfully, the harrowing ride is short-lived.
02:44Oh, shoot.
02:47Oh, my God.
02:50But despite the dangerous escalation...
02:54You hit my car.
02:57...the blame game rages on.
03:00You're driving in front of me.
03:01Proving that when two determined personalities both think they're in the right...
03:06You can't even make the wrong.
03:08Oh, my God.
03:10I told you.
03:10I told you.
03:11Oh, my God.
03:12Oh, my God.
03:14It could be a tinderbox for trouble.
03:18In Florida...
03:20Shut up!
03:21...a minor rear-end collision has a driver on edge.
03:24What the f*** is this?
03:26I don't f*** me up, man.
03:28And though, as they trade information, he seems to acknowledge fault.
03:32I'm going through the same thing.
03:33No, no, you're not.
03:34Because you're not the one responsible.
03:36Because now I'm responsible.
03:38Because it's a rear-end collision.
03:40He quickly tries to shift the blame.
03:43There was a...
03:44No, no.
03:44That guy started going.
03:46I don't care if you're recording me or not.
03:47There was an ambulance.
03:48That guy started going.
03:49There was an ambulance car turning out of here, and you need a stop for an ambulance.
03:54That guy started going.
03:54So, when you slam on your f***ing brakes, I'm just supposed to immediately...
03:57My car is supposed to stop?
03:59Yeah, because there's a car...
04:00How?
04:00How?
04:00When the f***ing rain is raining?
04:02There was a car in front of me.
04:03Where am I going to go?
04:04This ain't even a f***, man.
04:07You think I want you to f***ing car?
04:08How the f*** am I supposed to stop when the rain is raining?
04:11How am I supposed to stop when you guys automatically started going?
04:14And then f***ing expect me to stop?
04:17But instead of responding in anger, the woman attempts a much lighter tone.
04:22I was in the same boat as you.
04:24There's someone that stopped in front of me.
04:25No, you were obviously not.
04:27Yes, I was, sir.
04:29A wise move given the man's escalating temper.
04:33Oh, f***.
04:34My bad.
04:35I cannot afford a f***ing accident right now, man.
04:39You don't even understand what this is doing.
04:41Stop f***ing recording me.
04:43I'm done it because I feel very unsafe.
04:45I feel threatened from you.
04:47Really?
04:47Because you stopped on the f***ing time and expect me to stop.
04:49There was an ambulance.
04:50No, no.
04:51Yes, there was, sir.
04:51It's not fair for me to have to eat your f***ing ass in.
04:55The woman alerts a passing motorist.
04:58I'll call 911.
05:00He hit the back of my car because there was an ambulance leaving and now he's not at me.
05:06Here, stop for a second.
05:07He don't have to do a f***ing.
05:08It's none of his business.
05:10You need to go.
05:12Go, man.
05:12It's best for you to go.
05:13I'll call 911.
05:14But even the potential of police involvement doesn't fully simmer the man down.
05:19You just f***ed my whole day up, lady.
05:24You ruined my f***ing day and my driving record now.
05:27Thank you for f***ing stopping on.
05:29You ruined my car.
05:30Listen, you drove and you ignited your car.
05:33You stopped pouring out.
05:34You stopped for the ambulance.
05:36There was a car in front of me.
05:39Where was I gonna go, sir?
05:41Can someone come here, please?
05:43Can I have a picture of your ID?
05:44Of course you can.
05:45Okay.
05:46Because now that we're doing this, it's a tit for tat.
05:48Of course.
05:49Can you call the cops, please?
05:51This line hit me and he's being very erratic and he won't call the cops, please.
05:56Okay.
05:57So now you can call the cops.
05:59I would like to keep this on the floor.
06:01You need to stop involving people.
06:02No, you're not.
06:03You need to call the cops, please.
06:06Despite the woman's best efforts to de-escalate, the man's anger boils anew.
06:11I have a camera back here that you hit me, buddy.
06:15You just screwed me, too.
06:16Of course I hit you.
06:16It's a rear-hand hit.
06:17Yeah.
06:18But you stopped in front of me and the car slid into you.
06:21I couldn't control it.
06:22I couldn't control it either.
06:24There was a car in front of me today, too, sir.
06:27And when the woman solicits yet another witness.
06:30Do you mind calling them for me?
06:32I don't want to take this off a record.
06:35He hit my car because there's an ambulance leaving.
06:39The man appears to warn them away.
06:43No, I got this under control.
06:44I'm calling the cops.
06:45You don't need to be involved.
06:47You don't have to be nasty.
06:49This is how people get themselves in trouble.
06:50No.
06:51If you would have just called the cops like I asked.
06:53I'm sorry.
06:53It's not allowing me to.
06:54Finally, the man makes good on his promise to call authorities.
06:58Look it.
06:59I'm going to do it again.
07:00911?
07:01Hello?
07:04Yeah, yes.
07:05Um, I had an accident.
07:09According to the video source, police arrived to resolve the dispute before the heated showdown
07:14gets any worse.
07:16This testy confrontation had the potential for an ugly outcome.
07:21You don't even understand what this is doing.
07:23Stop recording me.
07:24Thankfully, at least one of the parties kept their cool.
07:28I was in the same boat as you.
07:30There's someone that stopped in front of me.
07:32Even if the other was losing theirs.
07:35That you hit me, buddy.
07:37Uh, you just threw me here.
07:38Of course I hit you to rear end head.
07:39Yeah.
07:40Oh!
07:40Oh.
07:45With an estimated 330,000 stop lights in the US, occasionally, there are bound to be some
07:52technical glitches.
07:57Some of which, can be decidedly confusing.
08:06while structural issues
08:12can be life-threatening so in order to prevent situations like these from happening
08:18especially during peak traffic times routine stoplight maintenance is often scheduled during
08:25off-peak hours making it more convenient to commuters and safer for the work crew
08:31of course with so many stoplights and only so much time to work on them sometimes workers
08:37and drivers are unfortunately forced to share the road in louisiana at a busy intersection
08:47a work crew uses a bucket truck to perform midday maintenance on a stoplight though the truck itself
08:54is coned off they've left all lanes open allowing drivers to pass through completely unencumbered
09:01or at least most of them
09:13in louisiana
09:15a bucket truck crew works on a stoplight during midday traffic allowing vehicles to pass underneath
09:23but while the light is more than high enough for most vehicles to clear it easily
09:27the workers bucket beneath it most certainly
09:35is not
09:39despite the presence of a worker in the street a semi makes a wide turn through the intersection
09:47slamming the bucket and upending the workman
09:51who is fortunately wearing a safety harness
09:55he's left dangling head first above the concrete while his crew scrambles to respond
10:02but not wanting to make any sudden movements with the bucket arm one of the workers serves as a spotter
10:11while the hanging crewman
10:15manages to flip himself upright
10:19the semi driver approaches the scene along with a motorcycle officer who happened to be nearby
10:27the officer blocks off the road and a rescue team is alerted
10:32according to news reports the crewman is soon freed
10:36having suffered only minor injuries that don't require a trip to the hospital
10:41good news for him and for the trucker who was clearly shaken by the mishap
10:48it is unknown if any charges are filed in the incident but one thing is clear
10:53no matter what color a stoplight shows when work crews and traffic occupy the same roadway
11:03everyone should proceed with caution
11:12driving in a residential area requires a heightened sense of vigilance where every driver
11:22must constantly watch for kids animals and other foot traffic which can occasionally
11:32lead to some friction what's your name exactly bitch like it has between the driver recording
11:41and this dog walker you are the one that keeps screaming at me every day i'm going slow i couldn't
11:47go around you i could not go around you if there's another car coming and you're in the middle of
11:54the
11:54road then stop then move off the road no it is a passenger it's it's a pedestrian road yeah and
12:03instead of both parties finding a way to peacefully coexist exactly exactly you exactly because you're an
12:10idiot oh i don't know any idiot it turns into a turf war who would you call a fat if
12:16i got out of this
12:17car i am not a fat but you called me one bitch only because you drive like one and sadly
12:25some of these wars
12:27go far beyond insults in florida a sports car driver with a mounted tail camera cruises through her
12:36neighborhood when she spots a resident ahead whom she apparently
12:43has a problem with
12:47and when the man and his dog start to approach
12:55an apparent near miss is followed by a confrontation with a gun
13:15in florida a sports car driver encounters a neighbor that draws her ire
13:26according to her their family keeps getting in her way while she's driving
13:31and this time
13:35she goes ballistic
13:44with family rushing to the man's defense the driver turns her wrath on them all
14:03the family retreats to call police
14:09who pay the driver a visit at her home soon after
14:12hey good morning let me talk to you for a minute and hear her side of the story i've had
14:17problems
14:17with these people last night i'm driving my car is loud and i'm driving in last night i guess they
14:22had kids out there playing but i i saw the kids i'm not i'm not stupid i have kids so
14:28i'm coming in
14:29and they all jump in front of my car like this now what if i would have hit one of
14:33you guys you're
14:34jumping in front of my car this morning i'm leaving to go get
14:37and breakfast for my kids and they're walking the dog i guess i have it on my um car video
14:43and um there's one standing right there and one standing right there and i i don't know are you
14:48guys gonna jump in front of my car again though the driver paints herself as the aggrieved party
14:53he's like running up on my side of the door and i have i have a gun i carry so
14:58i stand out the car
14:59and i'm like what like what are you trying to do man like you're a guy and i'm a woman
15:03her version
15:04of events stands in stark contrast to the actions captured by her own car camera
15:13and her exiting of the vehicle while wielding a gun
15:19leaving her in a very bad position unfortunately i cannot let you go
15:25you are legally detained okay and you're not free to go okay
15:30okay the driver is arrested and according to court documents is charged with aggravated assault
15:36with a deadly weapon without intent to kill she has pled not guilty and as a production the case is
15:43ongoing but it's a potentially high price to pay for being a very unneighborly driver
15:58when a car breaks down along the road sometimes hazard lights
16:05ah just aren't enough
16:09according to triple a flares or other warning markers should be included in any vehicle safety kit
16:15to increase one's visibility in the case of a roadside emergency an important practice for all civilians to follow
16:28but even more so for any emergency professionals in prada brazil
16:36a tow truck driver attaches a cable to a car preparing to pull it from a garage despite parking in
16:43the middle of
16:43the street the tow truck driver doesn't appear to use cones or warning markers and while there seems to be
16:50very little activity on the road at the time
16:52just down the street a preoccupied motorcyclist is loading up his bike
16:59the motorcyclist goes inside just as another biker turns onto the street
17:09fortunately seeing the tow cable in time and steering safely around it
17:15but the tow truck driver still doesn't appear to warn others of the danger
17:20and when the first motorcyclist returns and mounts up
17:38in brazil
17:40a tow truck driver stretches a steel cable across a road in order to pull a car from a garage
17:46but he doesn't appear to set out any warning markers
17:49and when a motorcyclist saddles up for a ride
18:02the motorcyclist hits the cable at neck height flinging him to the pavement
18:14somehow the biker stands
18:18though he appears to be grimacing in pain
18:25despite the tow truck driver appearing to pass the blame
18:29according to a news source he takes the motorcyclist to the emergency room himself
18:33where the man is treated for his injuries
18:37any charges related to the event are unknown
18:41but the devastating crash serves as an important lesson
18:45always put up warning signs when stopped on or beside a road
18:50and always proceed with caution past any stopped vehicles
18:57so that their emergency
19:02doesn't become your own
19:10three-wheeled atvs were all the rage in the 1970s and 80s
19:15we're going to get a few of these three-wheelers out today and put around for a few minutes and
19:18see what they do
19:20well one reason their popularity faltered
19:32instability
19:34which is why atvs like this
19:37have been banned from being produced and sold in the u.s since 1988
19:44all right
19:47no more of that
19:49modern three-wheelers use a tadpole design
19:52with two wheels in front and one in the back
19:57which is better for stability
19:59better
20:01but not perfect
20:03in hot springs arkansas
20:06a bus's dash cam records traffic which includes a three-wheeled trike
20:10when suddenly
20:18a slow down ahead catches the driver off guard
20:22in a jerk of the handlebars tips the rear of the trike to its left
20:26throwing the passenger head first into a car
20:31then drags her directly into the path of the bus
20:36which thankfully is able to stop just in time
20:40the trike's driver hurries to check on his passenger
20:45quickly joined by a concerned bystander
20:51the injured woman struggles to get off the road as witnesses call for help
20:56she's reportedly taken to the hospital
20:58but thankfully soon released fortunate to have survived
21:05and likely convinced that anything less than four wheels on the road
21:11is a risk
21:12to one's safety
21:14and likely
21:15and
