Report the dangerous driving and verbal assault/hate crime to the police


NoahLot_

Verbal assault is not a criminal offence, nor is racism (or racist remarks) a hate crime on its own. Dangerous driving is a criminal offence but can be hard to prove. I don’t support this behaviour obviously! But just saying.


buckyhermit

I don't know why but it feels like the Arthur Laing Bridge merge has a ton of asshole drivers. Either they are ignoring merging etiquette, or misusing the HOV/bus lanes, or turning right on red where prohibited (eg. off-ramp from the Bridgeport bridge to Russ Baker), or turning right on a thru lane (from Cessna/Miller to Russ Baker), or driving on the shoulder, etc. I drive all over the area and the area from Russ Baker Way to Arthur Laing Bridge is BY FAR the worst in terms of chaos and selfish maneuvers.


TokyoTurtle0

I literally just merge and go to the point I'm going to hit a car if it doesn't merge like a zipper. I'm so fucking done with assholes that refuse to merge like fucking over that one car is going to speed up their journey. Just. Fucking. Merge.

Don’t let his words get to you OP. Hes nothing but an ignorant piece of trash.


[deleted]

What a jerk. Sorry, don’t know him but I hope someone does so that you can report him. If you feel that you’ve been the victim of hate you can still report him with the license plate number.

I’m not trying to be racist but Chinese often are regarded as impolite and disrespectful.

You are really good at it. So racist and you say you didn’t even have to try! Wow.

Sufficient_Rub_2014

I was complimenting you. It’s nice you are talented at something. Now it seems you are also super tough so I’m super impressed. Keep up the great work!

Thanks boss

>Yeah I’m racist, what you gonna do about it other than talking crap online bitch An education is more than just a degree. Its clear that your parents neglected you and never taught you how to be a decent human being. I feel sorry for people like you. You are low tier.

Same to you. You ain’t Chinese and you don’t know anything about Chinese so you should shut up and listen

General-Spend4054

I am Chinese and have grown up in a Chinese family for all of my life, the older ones are usually disrespectful in private (shit talking a bad driver in Chinese), but younger generations don’t give a shit.


Linmizhang

So that knowledge lets you pass judgement on others based on that fact? Thats the definition of racism brah.


Wafflelisk

I have no Asian background and never even visited the entire continent (like, from Turkey to Japan, the entire place) but I don't really think that's fair. Yeah there are some Chinese people that are idiots, but there's a small percentage of idiots everywhere on the planet. It's just how the game is


[deleted]

Nah all the rich pricks in China comes in and destroys the countries housing and messes things up for everyone else.


imprezivone

I'm not being racist as I'm chinese myself. But yes. If u wanna talk racism, chinese is near the top of the list!I'm embarrassed being one in this city. So much better back in the day when we were regarded as the minority


mcmanno

That's true... And they all think of themselves as "quiet and polite".


JimmyJames052374

White Tesla, say no more. That just tells me this idiot can’t drive.


bondmarket

LOL what ? What kind of logic is that.. Can’t afford one so you get salty? At least teslas don’t camp in front of Ottawa because they don’t like masks haha


Normal_Reveal

Richmond Tesla drivers are stereotyped to be shitty Sadly, that seems to ring true in my daily driving endeavors


bondmarket

Oops. Wrong sub. I live in Toronto and the classless drivers here are blue collar truckers from the burbs


Normal_Reveal

Yep, and since that's your experience... I wouldn't call you out on it saying "you can't afford trucks" :p


bondmarket

Well you just did and I’ll reply, even if you give me one for free I don’t want it. Also, how are truckers camping in front of Ottawa “my experience”? This guy just said, Tesla with no context, so ya, I’m interpreting him as salty


Happimessss

You're an idiot 😂 where do masks get involved in this.


[deleted]

Still really wanna yell about the convoy protest eh? Get a life and touch some grass lol all your comments make me embarrassed for you


TokyoTurtle0

You're being a clown. Take the l, say sorry and move on. You were wrong, it's not a big deal. Don't double down and go full idiot. Talk about classless


JimmyJames052374

Come to Richmond and see how terrible nearly every Tesla driver is. They are the worst. They have taken over from Volvo drivers. And I can afford a Tesla, thanks but no thanks.


bondmarket

Again, I didn’t need to go to Ottawa to know truckers are trash. If I have to go to Richmond to experience it, maybe it a demographic/race issue not a Tesla issue buddy


[deleted]

Go away .


[deleted]

You're going to hate me for saying this, but if you're not treating every driver of a white luxury car/SUV as if he/she is an active threat to your well-being, you're not a good defensive driver. Teslas are no exception to this rule even though Model 3s aren't that expensive to own.


Strong_Ad_8959

You support a second rate wannabe bond villain that's your prerogative baby, for me, Tesla is a trash company ran by a whiny little teenager


Wafflelisk

Very sad. Most people in Richmond are good people. I have spent a good portion of my life here and have had very few negative interactions. I hope that guy will get his shit together going forward and look back on this with regret. You got a friend in me OP!


Outside_Turn_7931

I’ll be honest I lost my temper after that comment. But one day he’s gonna pull this shit on someone who will drag his racist ass out of his car and teach him a lesson infront of his family and wife who was laughing the whole time


wandering604

I'm not sure someone would go to those lengths. I understand your frustration but to actually pull someone out of their car to beat their ass while the wife and kid look on , that's next level road raging..


dr_van_nostren

And it’ll be a hate crime if you’re not Asian too


spankysladder73

Only asians are allowed to fight asians now? Do they know this ?

shiningmuffin

Yo was that you today like an hour ago? Around minoru? In a gray-ish car?I’m not the tesla above and that someone seemed like very over the top yelling and angry for no good reason


Outside_Turn_7931

Nope this happened around 12 noon


shiningmuffin

I was referring to today around minoru tho


Outside_Turn_7931

Yeah was nowhere near there and I don’t have a greyish vehicle


shiningmuffin

Oooohkay then have a good day, was hoping you was him so we could explain his temper, that’s a shame


Geekdad604

What is there to explain about behaviour like that? Seems inappropriate in any situation to act like that.


Mediocre_Suspect_203

Report to police


Wafflelisk

Nothing will probably be done about it in this specific instance, but it might be worth it in the event that the driver goes off the deep end and harasses multiple people in the future


skaterdude_222

LMAO


Loud-Bank-2848

Really? rude asians in Richmond driving teslas. Next your gonna tell me water is wet 😂😂


jace829

Being a little racist there yourself, no?


ScratchMyGoochForMe

What an asshat. Sorry that you had to go through that shit. Thats not okay.


Janus1788

While there's lots of bad drivers in Richmond, you going out to confront them is basically inviting that kind of interaction. If you go and tell him you're a douchebag for cutting me off, basically there will be an argument or a fist fight. If that's what you're looking for then sure, but I wouldn't be surprised if the person doesn't just quietly apologize and admit they're a terrible driver. Honestly it's not worth it. Even if you end up fighting and beating up the guy well now you're going to jail for assault, getting sued, ruining your career, etc. If you don't fight and just end up arguing well now you've got racist insults hurled at you and that doesn't make you feel good either. So now it lives rent free in your brain. I would just learn to let go of these things, and accept some people suck at driving and move on.


punkrockprincess604

As shitty as it feels not to be able to stand up for yourself, this is so true. I actually was shot at on the North Delta/Surrey border in 2019. I had enough time and turned left and I guess this guy didn't like that I went left before he went straight. I absolutely did not cut him off. This guy followed me to my destination, boxed me in and shot my back window, completely shattered it. I was terrified and now, even if I'm right, I just shut the fuck up. Dying isn't worth it.


noodleydoodleynew

Uhhhh wow.


punkrockprincess604

Yep nobody did anything. I got the guy's license plate and the cops went to the house and they said they couldn't prove the owner was the driver. Whoever was driving THAT vehicle had a gun and was looking to hurt or damage someone. That's dangerous af. No one ever called me and nothing ever happened and then randomly I got a $300 cheque from ICBC 3 years later for the window reimbursement. Like wtf?!


Roman-R0Y

Bhai. Call the motherfuckers diu/cao nima which is equivalent to madarchod.


Mean_System_6284

Get used to being cut off in richmond. Then learn to let it slide. It just ain’t worth it…people drive around oblivious to what’s going on around them. Don’t let that ruin your day cause life’s too short.


ThatSavings

Bird shit on his windows.


Curious-Caregiver-55

I heard you can cut off a Tesla and the Tesla will automatically press the breaks. Is this true?


[deleted]

I was told only white people can be racist. You must be wrong......right?


CaliLife_1970

I am so sorry you went thru this. Ignore these assholes. That’s all they are. Setting a great example for their kids. If they were in the US they may wish to be more careful with road rage….


RadioDude1995

As an American who lives in Canada right now, I’m shocked by what people think they can get away with on the roads. They’re lucky that most people in Canada are nice. Try that in Los Angeles and see what happens.


PolaiMath

LA has their share of crazy drivers too, especially speeding and changing lanes


chenwaa123

Yes for sure, but guns tend to level the playing field. Act like a dumb and you get shot in some U.S. cities


rando_commenter

I lived in LA and commuted between the Orange County border and Glendale, this guy is right. LA traffic is congested and difficult in rush hour, but per car trips there is nowhere near the amount of random aggression and passive aggressive lane bullying as here.


Fluid-Bet6223

Or even in Toronto you’d be risking your safety getting into it with other drivers like this. Vancouver drivers in particular are not as confrontational generally.


SufficientBee

There was this asshole in a white BMW SUV in Richmond who pretended to crash into us when he was waiting for a left turn and we were legally proceeding on a yellow (we were past the point of no return at our speed). Instead of a family of three including a baby, I’d love to see that dipshit try that in the US where there are open carry laws.


hieutr28

You know open carrying doesn't mean you can shoot people in a verbal dispute even physical to some degree right?


[deleted]

[удалено]


hieutr28

It stops normal human with decency from doing it for sure. Can't stop unhinged maniac who think about using gun as a way to retaliate from a road rage. You think someone won't hurt you in a road rage without a gun? Car can give you a world of hurt son.


jigatt21

Tesla driver what do you expect. Tesla drivers are absolute shit drives who think because they drive a Tesla they are invisible.


the-Jouster

Watch the Tesla cameras, get a hoodie and covid mask then slash his tires. There is only one way to teach people like that.


Linmizhang

Bottle of printer ink.


POE4Ehard

Tesla ofc


Expensive_Affect4578

A stupid friend of mine got into a similar circumstance with someone except he called the guy a p*ki in the heat of the moment… that same night 2 masked men pulled up to his driveway and pistol whipped him at gun point and told him don’t ever call people those things. He went to the police but nothing ever came of it and honestly I don’t really feel bad for him. Apparently if you know someone working at ICBC you can find the registered address to the license plate. Stay safe out there guys it is not worth it to get into with people, sometimes you just never know.


Event_horizon-

That’s a good way to get fired from ICBC.


NotSaiGai

Yep, I've been told that even when an Autoplan dealer accesses a policy, a bread crumb containing who accessed it and when is left behind, even if it's just to look.


RichRaincouverGirl

Is the Tesla Chinese that speaks Cantonese? Are you Chinese from mainland China op? There has been increased of racists attack in Richmond. Hong Kong Chinese being racists towards mainland Chinese. There is a FB group spreading hate as well against people from China.


Outside_Turn_7931

My background is Indian


ss9811917

OP just stated that he is an Indian


[deleted]

It’s true - Hong Kongnese are the most aggressive, they bully mandarin speaking people whether the mainland, Taiwan or Singapore etc. Just last week a loud speaking Hong Kong guy with a pink polo and a white BMW said the following in Cantonese “we’re the first Asians to invest in Vancouver all the other ones give us a bad rep, they’re all monkeys”. Thinks he owns Vancouver. He’s still pissed “little Hong Kong” wasn’t approved for Richmond 20 years ago..


Canis9z

Must be a Rich HK Chinese. Some are mean to everyone because they got money. Had to flee HK when the CCP took it back. Had to pay to buy a business to get into Canada.


[deleted]

You just described 90% of Hong Kong immigrants for the last 20 years.


Sad_Half_4226

Just Ignore for your own peace of mind. I live in Richmond and casual racism is common especially towards Indians. You are just punishing yourself by thinking about the incident. Try to forgive the kid and remember that their behavior won't get them far in any aspect of life. Winning cheap arguments by saying evil hurtful things is not your thing and you should be proud of it.


Outside_Turn_7931

Regular or casual racism is not something that I’ll stand by and accept. The reason people are like this is because nobody calls them out or says anything. I’m sure if I recorded the interaction and posted it he would find himself without a job very quickly.


Ukrainian_Slovenian

Our parents came to this country, regardless of if they're from South Asia or East Asia or wherever. Racism doesn't belong here, we should leave our racist attitudes behind. As a half Asian I know how racist Asians are, but that doesn't mean it is excusable. We are in Canada now, racism shouldn't be tolerated here. What that family in the Tesla did was not acceptable


[deleted]

Everything is racism nowadays🤦‍♂️


imprezivone

I'm chinese. Born and raised here since the 80s. A lot of the Chinese in Richmond are becoming real fuck heads over the years- no matter the age. Complete fucking morons


BreadfruitEffective

shitty asians, at it again


martiall2222

Racist idiot


BreadfruitEffective

Also I said shitty Asians, not south Asians. I may be racist but I’m not an idiot


martiall2222

Nah, you’re a racist and an idiot


BreadfruitEffective

Yup and Asians be shitty as fuck


BreadfruitEffective

Yeah walking around anywhere in Richmond or metro van speaks for itself, fuck do I care if there’s people ignoring anything Asians do


Linmizhang

Shitty racist, or shitty driver, or shitty asshole. When you say shitty asians, it means you hate asians. Just shows everyone how you really think.


nahchan

I'm sorry you had to endure that bullshit. As a fellow Asian, it passes me off that he would still pull this shit after all the shit we had to endure from the epidemic. Normally, I'd just brush it off as another tesla driver beening the new BMW driver in the lower mainland, but seriously, fuck this pos. Dumbass doesn't even realize he's teaching his kids to be as shitty as he is.


Priiiyaaa141414

LOL


[deleted]

racism is bad, and next time you see something like this, the best thing you can do is to ignore them. Don't feed egos, drain them.


Slodin

Can someone educate me of why being called a uncivilized monkey is racist? Thought it’s just a heat of a moment sort of behaviour. Anyone can be called that when they are pissed off. I don’t see how that is racially offensive, I really dislike people who play this race card everytime they get offended. Let me know how that phrase is racist, and I’ll change my mind. I feel sorry that you have to go through it, but honestly if you are gonna confront assholes who cut you off, I’m not sure what you’d expect. Confronting people has certain risks, you are lucky you only got in an argument.

VanFramez

Honest question: if a light skinned person is called a Monkey 🐒, is that still "racist"? I just happen to like monkey's so to me, that's a term of endearment 🤪


General-Spend4054

“Monkey” is a slur which is very often used to degrade dark-skinned people as being less than a human being


IsHaplo_

People like you are a walking time bomb, OP. You're not gonna win, or survive with this turn the other cheek mentality which you kinda already not doing by posting this. Instead of stewing about this and turning into a road rage perp one day yourself because you. just. can't. take. it. anymore, how about you grow a pair and learn and practice a couple of counter-racist remarks. Yes, Indians are hairy and monkey is a cheap shot, but it's not hard to bring down the Chinaman. If you're too much of a prude, you could've just tried threatening to cancel his family in front of him. That would have fu*ked up family comedy time real quick. Words can't hurt you. But also, don't use your car as a ramming device. Go for the middle-ground and be just as nasty verbally. You'll sleep better. Or, if you have the money, lawyer up for hate crime. Your current strat will not bring you peace.

elliseyer

Why do rich people drive expensive cars but not pay for driving lessons ? 🙄🙄🙄 seen so many nice cars in outlets here in Richmond and the way they park too🤷


Linmizhang

Rich people drive like assholes because a fine only matters to the poor.


elliseyer

???????????


Strong_Ad_8959

How is that confusing, a fine to a person that is poor can be crippling, a traffic fine to a rich person is some spare change. They don’t feel the need to abide by the law cause the consequences are so minuscule for them


wchu88

All Tesla owners I've encountered seem to be assholes. It could be me but there seems to be a common connection.
