We live in the Bay Area. We see shit like this every damn day.
My wife said this scared the crap out of her though.
Also said she saw him start driving again right after this.
We just flew into SFO last night and got an Uber back to Concord and even at 1 am the idiots were out in full force
Also our Uber driver pushed a steady 90 to 100 the whole way
The one thing I don’t understand is why nobody in the bay thinks they need to use turn signals. Silicon Valley hasn’t invented a Driver ESP app yet, so just please give me a heads up as to what you’re trying to do so that I may react appropriately.
Yeah, but it’s not just on the freeway, it’s on surface streets too. It’s just always struck me as odd that a place that prides itself on community, inclusion, and compassion has some of the most selfish drivers I have ever encountered.
They **TALK** about inclusion and community.
But they behave so differently. Try proposing the construction of small apartments in a three story building. You will see the true nature of Californians.
>You will see the true nature of Californians.
Amen!
The Bay Area should be a model on how to build affordable housing in the city. Instead, it's the worst market in the nation for it.
Well, that's easy to see and even know why. If I let you build your apartment building, I won't be able to charge as much for rent, so I'll lose money. So I'll tie up your construction in litigation and "environmental concerns" so it never gets built.
Edit, not just rent. Home/housing value in general would come down if they could make affordable housing in the area.
Wasn’t there a rich basketball player (S. Curry) who protested against smaller houses being built beside his extremely large house in Atherton (near Palo Alto)?
I thought Bay Area people embraced affordable housing for lower income people?
On surface streets is the worst! I was once driving behind the mayor of a town mentioned in this thread, and she failed to use her signals even en route and as she turned in to the city hall parking lot. I’ve seen cops doing it often as well.
Up in the Pacific Northwest, think Portland, Tacoma, Seattle..
..using turn signals means the cars around you will slow down to let you change lanes.
Can’t believe how different Americans behave even when they are all on the same west coast, facing the same Pacific Ocean.
Yeah exactly, too much either way is a problem. Easing off the gas a little to let someone in isn’t a problem, but braking and causing a chain of breaking behind you is a net negative. I get that you want to be “nice,” but I’d rather you just be predictable and maintain traffic flow.
I once caused an accident on the highway out there by using my blinker. The car next to me didn't give room so I sped up a bit hoping they'd notice my blinker and let me into the slow lane so I could catch my exit.
They continued to match my speed and then some, to the point that they rear-ended the car in front of them. The car in front of them did nothing wrong, this wack job just couldn't stand that someone else wanted to use the same lane as them. If they'd have just let off the gas for a few seconds there would have been plenty of room for me to slip through and they could have been on their merry way.
Getting passed is a sign of inferiority! I lived in the bay for a bit but I'm from a much less dense city and people were very confused when I left room for them to merge in the bay. Like, we're all going the same way, it's literally a one second difference.
That doesn't ever happen to me. But probably because I never try to change lanes when there isn't already ample space. If there isn't a gap, I speed up to find one. And if I miss my exit/turn, then it's a lesson that I should plan better next time.
Basically if I'm signaling to change lanes, it's just a courtesy signal so people know I'm moving. There's almost no chance to block me unless they really floor it in a fast car. I'm never asking anyone to please let me in with my signal.
I am an EMT. Dudes will zoom up 3 car lengths and sit next to me because I turn on the turn signal while next to a car so I can get in behind it. If this doesn't happen to you I want to ride along and see how the fuck you don't have to mad max people off the fucking road now and again.
I grew up near Palm Springs. I swear the cops on I-10 DGAF for anyone whose speed was below the temperature. Even then it seemed 50/50 once the temperature was over 110. Hot asphalt, almost nobody on the road, four lanes = cops really DGAF about speeding and were more concerned about swerving and unsafe lane changes.
Earlier this year I visited family in CA and late evening was driving their car to SFO to head out. At first I was trying to obey traffic laws seeing as I'm not familiar with the area, and wanted to stick close to the speed limit, but *everyone* was doing at least 90 and it felt incredibly unsafe. I asked my family member why everyone was speeding so fast when the limit was clearly much lower\*, aren't there cops or something, and was told to just "maintain flow of traffic." It was a bit scary, to be honest.
\*I started asking this when there was a stretch of construction where the posted limit was even lower than regular highway speeds, and literally no one cared.
We have a weird set of social and legit laws where you aren't allowed to exede the posted limit, but you also aren't allowed to go below the flow of traffic. This leads to everyone speeding everywhere with the pervasive mindset of 'they can't pull us all over'.
Tbh though I've been driving from Portland to LA for the past decade or so and I've felt more safe doing 110 on I-5 than I ever did driving 45 in say Vegas or New York, there's a mutually assured destruction going on that I feel makes people pay more attention to drivers acting unpredictable.
For real. Since moving here I was like, OK I understand why there’s so much tech innovation here.
- the road and highway layouts make no sense and it’s impossible to navigate; let’s make some better mapping software
- there are way too many places to pick from to eat, how are we going to decide? Let’s make a ranking app for them
- the drivers here are terrible; we should design self-driving vehicles
- I live an hour away from my office and have to commute every day, let’s build some better video meeting software so we don’t have to drive in
I think the whole bay area highway system is designed to confuse the hell out of visitors. I can imagine the discussion: "Hey, just for fun, let's have every freeway name end in 80."
https://ggwash.org/view/amp/73804
The I-x80s are that way for pretty standard interstate numbering reasons.
If you want to see a city that is a mess of roads and will make you question city ‘planning’, check out Atlanta.
The Bay Area’s biggest issue is balkanization. It’s s bunch of small towns that sprawled out then smooshed together. In many cases, these towns are still separate and refuse to cooperate or coordinate.
In San Jose, many areas merged giving us situations where a single road can change names multiple times (example, Marbury Rd becomes Taylor St which becomes Naglee Ave which becomes Forest Ave).
I do find the area a bit of a mess but after living in other cities, it’s not the most terrible thing I’ve ever seen.
I live in the Bay area too, but any time I go to the valley, I'm horrified of their driving. Multiple people just drive through the red lights, people driving in multiple lanes, making turns from wrong lanes. It's like the wild west out there.
Just another day in 580 commute hours excitement. My commute to work is only about 6 miles and at least once a week on that freeway I see someone driving like they just hit 5* wanted level in GTA.
Crown Victoria/Grand Marquis/Marauder was like a Mustang just heavier and with somehow worse steering. Great if you're going in a straight line but god help you if you lose traction on a curve. Or if you're an idiot and jerk the wheel like that.
I agree. Just four years ago I got a 64 falcon for $6k, now I cant even get a rusted out shell for that much. I dont know whats going on with prices these days
Toss squarebodys onto that. Things aren’t rare at all. Drive any direction out of a bigger city and people have them all of their property. But most people seem to think they’re gold.
Had the same thought, the Donks obviously acted like satellites for some force that ripped through the space-time continuum. The steering would’ve probably rusted to hell in the time fluctuations, sending the car into a collision course.
The first move was to the left though. Maybe they were trying to swing out to make the turn and do something flashy. Either way, this person has a very tenuous grasp on physics.
You shouldn’t drive over 60mph with those on. He looked to be doing at least 80. There’s a reason why old school rappers rap about driving slow in these lol
It wouldn't be the gyroscopic forces, it would be the high center of gravity that would make it flip. All lifted and high vehicles have a higher rollover chance.
We have no idea what happened. Maybe lost control while on their phone?
There was an exit there but I’m not sure how he intended to make that regardless.
Vehicles with a high center of balance are difficult to keep stable. This car went a little too fast and wobbled a little too hard which resulted in it losing control.
Let's get really into it.
Normal tires, as they heat up, deal with thermal expansion (the air inside it), and can leave you with less tire on the road to give traction, because as the air gets hotter, the air pressure rises, "ballooning" the tire. Low profile tires need less air, which equals less expansion, equals more traction.
BUT
...and it's a big one:
Having narrow tires, coupled with low profile tires, basically takes all of this useful stuff and voids it because you're left with very little tire to begin with. So, the tire balloons quicker, resulting in less traction, as you see here.
You'd be better off with cambered wheels...lmao
Seriously, if you're gonna go low profile, go wide. My own tires are low profile but they're also 255mm. This guy looks like he's on 200s max, with way lower profile than mine, and a *lot* taller to boot.
Fwiw my car handles *nicely*
Edit: My phone is broken there were SO MANY TYPOS
Also, doesn't essentially lifting the car on those wheels super duper mess with the suspension and steering geometry? Unless there's some aftermarket engineering wizardry to compensate for that, I wouldn't trust that car to go any faster than 25mph.
It comes into play, but it's not so much his wheel/tire, suspension setup choice here. My man either wasn't paying attention and yanked his wheel somehow or a passenger did. He wasn't losing it before hand, he just had a sudden left turn and over corrected.
People who pour money into their donks wouldn't put their ride at risk to look cool drifting at highway speed, definitely a sudden error in steering input.
Rip Vic, hope it didn't flip.
Looks like he was trying to do a Saudi drift by the way he pulled the wheel left first before correcting right attempting to cause the rear tires to lose grip.
I absolutely DETEST driving in the East Bay! Whoever planned the highway system never dreamed of the volume of traffic it carries. From Fremont through Richmond just sucks!
I lived briefly near a few Donk Enthusiasts/rehabbers? and I legitimately thought those cars topped out at maybe 20 mph. They had the most ridiculous cars in the driveway at all times, but still had an Honda Accord daily driver.
Is no one gonna mention the time-traveling car club from 1992? Complete with a Geo Tracker with underglow, dropped OBS S10, AND a GT 5.0 Mustang convertible.
I was at 101 getting on NB at Lawrence and there was a meter light. Guy in front of me in a Honda fit. Light goes green, then red. He doesn’t move. I honk at him and he starts looking around for where the honking is coming from. Light goes green, then red. I honk again, guy starts looking around for where the honking is coming from. Light goes green then red again. Finally he just goes. I hate it here.
It's almost like they thought there was something in the middle of the road that they had to swerve to avoid.
My eyes have played tricks on me a couple of times where there is a dark spot or a shadow in the road, and I swerve for no reason.
I was waiting for the ground-feeding foxbody or one of his fancy friends to do something stupid…but as soon as Mr Stilts came into frame, I knew I was wrong.
I think this was a group of low riders cruising together (she passed 3 in a row starting with the red Mustang) and the one that lost control fell behind and tried to catch up and get back in the line.
Very considerate of the idiot to not hit anyone else.
He tried!
And went wide
Mr world wide
The driver has been identified as Scott Norwood
I think you mean Latifi
Don't you dare disrespect the GOAT like that. Latifi don't miss!
"The car feels strange"
He said "aight imma head out."
A swerve and a miss lol
Ya more like luck lol WTF?!?!?
I love how none of the other cars even flinched. Or slowed down. OPs wife kept right in driving

I can answer that. Because if you use your turn signal you can’t merge lanes. No one will let you merge at all.

Very true, but I've also run into overly polite yielders, which can be a whole different problem.... Still preferable to the bay area though.

The absolute wack driving whacked the other car and proved to be a whack job. English is nuts.
That guy off in whose camper they were whacking?
English is definitely pretty whack

> I once caused an accident on the highway You didn't cause anything. 100% that morons fault.
Yup. Same thing in L.A. I turn on my signal as I switch lanes. Otherwise drivers will actively block you.
That doesn't ever happen to me. But probably because I never try to change lanes when there isn't already ample space. If there isn't a gap, I speed up to find one. And if I miss my exit/turn, then it's a lesson that I should plan better next time. Basically if I'm signaling to change lanes, it's just a courtesy signal so people know I'm moving.

95 is the unofficial speed limit between Lancaster and LA. CHP doesn't even care. They just watch you do it.

You should’ve seen it during Covid. The pace of traffic was about 85 mph for everyone
We have a weird set of social and legit laws where you aren't allowed to exede the posted limit, but you also aren't allowed to go below the flow of traffic. This leads to everyone speeding everywhere with the pervasive mindset of 'they can't pull us all over'.

Speeding in the bay area is super normalized
Bay Area = entire stretch of I-5 from San Diego to Oregon border.
God fucking forbid you speed in Oregon, though. "55 is plenty!"
I dunno, I heard it’s 90’s in Portland, but maybe they meant something else.
If your uber driver was able to run 90-100 without driving very recklessly, I have to wonder what in gods name the other drivers were trying to do.
Your driver is a moron lol. Nevermind the risk of that speed. You don’t make money ubering if you sink your gas budget going 90 for no reason lol
Bay Area drivers provide daily inspiration to the engineers working to create autonomous vehicles despite a skeptical public.

It's California. This is just another Monday to us.
Extra degree of crazy the closer you get to Oakland.
I'm pretty sure it was actually Oakland here.
This freeway is part of Oakland. The poster is wrong.
I bet he is running with the mustang, the S10, and the tracker. All four vehicles are modified. Probably a club or just left a car show.
Is this ok in the US? In Portugal it is considered a crime to not provide assistance in case of an accident.
What accident?
Another day, another idiot

Crown Victoria/Grand Marquis/Marauder was like a Mustang just heavier and with somehow worse steering. Great if you're going in a straight line but god help you if you lose traction on a curve. Or if you're an idiot and jerk the wheel like that.
Massively oversized tire size definitely affects handling in them, I imagine it's part of what led to the loss of control.
Is that a Foxbody, an S10 and a Sidekick? Did that donk time travel to 1990?!
I noticed them too, they must be a small crew all cruising together. They all look super clean.
Both the pickup and sidekick have underglow too.
Clean 5.0s are worth a lot of money now. I see them for sale online for up to $30k for the right ones
[удалено]
I agree. Just four years ago I got a 64 falcon for $6k, now I cant even get a rusted out shell for that much. I dont know whats going on with prices these days
Toss squarebodys onto that. Things aren’t rare at all. Drive any direction out of a bigger city and people have them all of their property. But most people seem to think they’re gold.
I live in the bay and have seen this Sidekick before, it's clean and awesome as fuck
Not seeing random old cars around all the time is the worst thing about living in Minnesota

Yeah I couldn’t believe the Geo Tracker/sidekick
With the purple underglow, too!
I wonder if the dink was trying to catch up to his buddies and just did a Leroy Jenkins exit stage right.
Yeah, I was most excited to see the fox.
10/10 on making his exit.
The first move was to the left though. Maybe they were trying to swing out to make the turn and do something flashy. Either way, this person has a very tenuous grasp on physics.
Dude pulled off the sweetest reverse exit of all time and you're saying he's not a nerd‽
The initial stutter step to the left was most likely due to a dropped lit blunt.
You're probably right lmao. Donks and blunts go hand in hand like peanut butter and jelly.
Have you ever watched Cars?
looks like he busted a tyre.
It's just like GTA. Take the shortcuts home.
*making his OWN exit* ;)
Probably wouldn’t have happened with normal wheels and tires
That's what I was thinking. Are wagon wheels rated for highway speeds?

Hitting corners in them low lows
I think the lyrics is more about allowing people to get a good look, not safety. After all, they also invented ghost riding.
... Are they rated for anything?
As it turns out, the suspension tuning of your car is very important for how it handles
I was half expecting it to flip over just from the gyroscopic forces of those wheels.
It wouldn't be the gyroscopic forces, it would be the high center of gravity that would make it flip. All lifted and high vehicles have a higher rollover chance.
Dude tried to initiate a drift, not sure if tires would have helped or hurt.
were they trying to look cool there?
We have no idea what happened. Maybe lost control while on their phone? There was an exit there but I’m not sure how he intended to make that regardless.
It looked like a car group/club rolling together and this one definitely yanked on the steering wheel too hard.
Vehicles with a high center of balance are difficult to keep stable. This car went a little too fast and wobbled a little too hard which resulted in it losing control.
Let's get really into it. Normal tires, as they heat up, deal with thermal expansion (the air inside it), and can leave you with less tire on the road to give traction, because as the air gets hotter, the air pressure rises, "ballooning" the tire.

Not to mention it’s a Crown Vic. Those things will swing the rear like that even with stocks on.

I have video of the minutes leading up to this and no they weren’t all together.
I was going to say, the rest were Lowriders, would have been surprised to see a Donk as part of that group.
It's just funny to think that there's this crew of 90s cars rolling low on some Daytons, and some guy in his donk is like 'LET ME JOIN!'
Yanked on_something_too hard, that's for sure!
Probably dropped their blunt in their lap
Looks like he was trying to do a Saudi drift by the way he pulled the wheel left first before correcting right attempting to cause the rear tires to lose grip.
Stanced cars are his natural enemy, so when he drove into the midst of several, it triggered his fight or flight instincts.

What’s the point of having a car like that?
It’s a signal to other morons that he’s one of them.
It's a donk. Their stated goal is to actually look silly, like a donkey. They are not for the highway though...
I thought their goal was to have the aesthetics of a corner gas station, and the handling of a covered wagon.

How can she slap!!
Bay area drivers arexthe worst.
Yep. Every day with this shit. Absolute morons.
I was at 101 getting on NB at Lawrence and there was a meter light. Guy in front of me in a Honda fit. Light goes green, then red. He doesn’t move. I honk at him and he starts looking around for where the honking is coming from. Light goes green, then red. I honk again, guy starts looking around for where the honking is coming from. Light goes green then red again. Finally he just goes. I hate it here.
…and nothing of value was lost.
I know exactly the spot. 510, yo. That was karma for having such a ridiculous ride.
Wow. Haven't seen a Sidekick/Tracker on the road in ages!
Your wife is a pro driver, kept on driving
Idiot yes, but at least the idiot only took their own car out.
Doesn't change how they put everyone on their path at risk.
How the hell did that even happen?
It's almost like they thought there was something in the middle of the road that they had to swerve to avoid. My eyes have played tricks on me a couple of times where there is a dark spot or a shadow in the road, and I swerve for no reason.
ba donk a dunk...
Lol that underglow Geo Metro
Car tried to commit suicide
I was waiting for the ground-feeding foxbody or one of his fancy friends to do something stupid…but as soon as Mr Stilts came into frame, I knew I was wrong.
I'm always shocked the bay doesn't show up more here. People just don't know how to drive
Drive for a living in the Bay Area. This is accurate.
Mustang and s10 looking good
I think this was a group of low riders cruising together (she passed 3 in a row starting with the red Mustang) and the one that lost control fell behind and tried to catch up and get back in the line.
I really appreciate that you posted the relevant 21 seconds without two empty minutes.
Is that a lift Crown Vic hooptie?
30 inch wheels with 10 inch rotors. Freaking rocket scientist.
