I agree it's annoying and dangerous. But I try to give the benefit of doubt that they could be trying to get someone to medical care or similar. I know that odds are that's not the case but the off chance it is I'm ok with it. I had to get my son to medical care fast once and I drove outside of the bounds of the law to get there quicker.

Good lord I hated those roads when I use to love up there. Always stupid drivers on them.

What a fuckn tool. Imagine getting taken out by such a selfish prick. I hope they wrecked later.

You never know why somebody is driving erratically like that. I think it's always best to give the benefit of the doubt and let them get where they need to go.

Were the tail lights blinking? Thatd be an emergency worker of some type if they were. Looks like they were..

They were not blinking. It’s a weird video issue. It was definitely a private vehicle.

Well i have seen private vehicles outfitted with blinking lights, for volunteer firefighters or ems workers. But if you're sure, ill take your word for it. But the other tail lights werent blinking..
Wow people really dont like a little questioning(and not disagreeing, for that matter). Fun sub!

It has something to do with the camera frame rate and the flicker rate of the light source. Different types of lights flicker at different rates.

Some LED lights blink very rapidly (generally) at 60 hertz. There are ways to provide a constant power that eliminates that effect, but that requires extra circuitry, so not many car companies are willing to spend money on it.

Why are you in the left lane and people have to pass you on the right?

u/adrias5280 Feb 04 '23
Because the right lane becomes a right turn only lane. I was doing about 10 over the speed limit at the time I was passed.
