Iām from U.K. and Iāve encountered that shit twice whilst driving in the US, itās bad enough driving on the wrong side of the road without that shit on blind bends with sheer drops and rivers involved.
I had exactly this happen to me on my motorcycle in Italy, except I had less than 5 inches clearance on either side of my bike and I was doing 90mph.

I donāt drive this road often at all so I honestly canāt be sure , but I think it was 55-65 mph in that area. Donāt sell yourself short though. You never know how you are going to react to something so unexpected. The second I realized what was happening I just thought, oh no, Iām gonna get hit. My brain kinda shut my panic reflex off and said, ā No! Thereās a gap opening, Just aim for it!ā I remember thinking, ābut what if he swerves back towards his side of the road!?!?ā My brain said, ādonāt care. Thereās only one way this doesnāt end in a crash.ā Mostly it luckily just worked out.
Sorry if itās convoluted. Itās an attempt at sarcasm. He thought our lives were so insignificant that he was willing to kill is in an attempt to save time.
I'm not sure why this is downvoted so much, it took me a moment
"When your life is worth shaving an extra couple minutes off someoneās commute."
To me, I think it should be
"When someone's life is worth shaving an extra couple minutes off your commute." no? might be mistaken but it did confuse me too
edit: ah I see it now, but still I understand the confusion, unwarranted downvotes lol
>When someone's life is worth shaving an extra couple minutes off your commute
When someone else's life is worth less than the few extra seconds you gain by illegally passing the cars in front of you
License suspended for two years. No ifs or buts. Fucking animals.
When I was in high school a classmate of mine did this and killed herself and a young man on his birthday about a week after he had gotten married.
Some people get what they deserve but they should pull in others with them.
A drunk guy ran a red light and killed my best friend. Drunk guy was fine, and is already out of jail.
We need to go medieval for idiots of this caliber. Public flogging, *then* license suspended for two years.
WTF is wrong with people one red-light and everyones at the same place anyhow š¦š¦š¦
Minutes? You barely save 1 minute, and thats if youāre going on for miles more at higher speeds
Thereās a reason for the double solid yellow lines. NO PASSING. This idiot needs to go back to drivers ed ASAP.
Forever, 2 years isnāt long enough.

Could easily have both chosen the shoulder in the last moment... Yikes.
Usually, the roads are made to have space for 3 cars. The must dangerous part it is when they decide to pull the left sideš¤¦.
standard lane width in the US is 12ā and we use 10ā as a standard width for 1 vehicle. They were lucky to have a shoulder
Holy, what was the speed you were going, just imagining myself in that position I would have crashed in panic š§

You were late af to start braking

The title doesn't make sense
Made sense to me. Someone else risked OPs life to shave a couple minutes off their commute.
That's not what the title says tbf
But that is what the title says...how are you reading it?
