Your Thoughts On This Video....BMW or Mazda Driver At Fault?

[slow&rusty]

A friend sent this to me...Your thoughts?

Over reactive BMW driver -or- Mazda driver following too closely..?

YouTube - Mazdaspeed3 (****box) and BMW 335i on Calaveras road

[Gogar]

BMW driver needs swift kick to the nutz. Unless, of course, he's a Pelican.

If some dumazz wants to ricky-racer you, and you're not into it, wave 'em on with a smile. That's all.

[IROC]

Not following too closely for sure. I would have had to make a smart remark to the BMW driver...

[TimT]

I have no idea why the zoom zoom driver bothered to stop...

I would have checked the road ahead for oncoming traffic, and kept going

That BMW driver is a first class *********

the video seems staged though

[Racerbvd]

Lets see, the BMW a-hole pulls out in front of him, then stops and whines that the Mazda was following to closely (he wasn't) If he wants to see someone ride his ass, he should pull out in front of me like that

Where is Speeder when you need him..

[MotoSook]

Even if the BMW driver is a Pelican, he's still an arsehell. The Mazda was never close enough to create a risky situation. Count how many seconds split the two vehicles.

The Mazda driver had way more restrain than I would have. BMW drivers bunch o arsehell....

[nynor]

wow. if you don't like it, pull over and wave them by.

staged, as stated above?

[Oh Haha]

Maybe Mr. BMW was pi$$ed that he couldn't shake the Maaaazda? Or maybe the missus was naggin himabout his driving......again.

What a douche'.

I didn't see a passing zone so what was Mazda guy to do?

[bgyglfr]

The guy in the Bummer was a real jerk. I don't understand why these BMW drivers think their cars are the sh**. Not like us Porsche guys.

you know the difference between a cactus and a beemer?

What a *****! If that's driving too close, I must be a real A-hole.

[masraum]

Well, the dude in the BMW seemed like a jackass. He tried to pull away from the Mazda and couldn't, and that's probably why he reacted like he did.

I've had a guy in a King Ranch do some crazy, CRAZY stuff to me twice (same guy months apart) on my ride home, so it's possible that it was ALL the BMW dude.

Trying to imagine both sides of the story here... The video cam was in a very wide angle mode, that can make things seem much farther away than they are. The Mazda could have seemed/been much closer than he seemed in the video.

It's entirely possible that they were both nuts.

No kidding, that guy would never make it home driving up and down 45 into/out of Houston every day.

[Monza_dh]

what an @ss. please make this go viral so this loser gets exposed.......

[HHI944]

Around here, if you stop your car in the middle of the road, get out and start walking towards the car behind you while yelling...........you're gonna get drawn on.

[ODDJOB UNO]

hmmmmm i think what everyjuans trying to say here is....................




hes damn lucky he didnt get SHOT! that was scary. i was afeared of my life.


guy ripping down road speeding.


stops in middle of highway(thats not dangerous is it?)


gets out yelling and swearing.



yep i would be afeared of my life .

[artplumber]

The BMW driver was just feeling guilty that he pulled out in front of the vid car. He noticed the Mazda speed up, and thought the Mazda guy might get out & scream at him. Therefore, pre-emptive action. Or maybe he's a richard head

[pwd72s]

I also suspect it's staged...

[gtc]

The BMW driver looks like a cop that just took his 'roids.
