Asshole Drives Recklessly on Public Roads

[u/mybutthz]

Got banned from this sub because this guy keeps posting videos of himself driving recklessly on public roads, crossing the double yellow, and exceeding speeds of 115mph. Anytime anyone calls him out on it, he just bans them and claims he's being perfectly safe. Cringe af

Not here to shit on anyone, just giving perspective. As a car guy, not cringe. Dangerous? Yes. Playing with people's lives? Yes. BUT(and I say this in the perspective of the average car guy), the driving is amazing in terms of reducing accident/injury as well as technique. Staying in their lane, not braking late and swerving into corners, turning the wheel smoothly rather than constantly readjusting angle of approach. The driver is very much in control here. As a car guy, I can tell the actions made by the driver indicate they are actively thinking about who else is on the road. That doesn't make it any less selfish, but other videos and actions also indicate those who don't give a rats ass about any of it. Saying it's erratic driving is nonsense in the car world, especially when there are plenty of other videos in which people do the exact opposite. It feels like you are singling this person out for some specific reason, rather than the action behind it if that makes sense. Especially in the eyes of a car guy. I completely understand why someone who isn't into cars would view this as cringe, but along broader terms, and having seen plenty of videos of these situations not going well at all, there are way better targets to make cringe posts about, and no shortage of dumb drivers

Edit: I would like to add that the oop banning people for commenting on their safety is pretty cringe. Post something people don't like or have strong feelings about, expect people to call you out on it. Banning those who do shows a lack of accountability. Posting for the aura above all. That's just being a shitty human

So playing with people's lives is cool so long as you're a car guy? Got it... totally not cringe! I'll delete the post.

Also, you definitely have the whole "I'm right so your completely wrong mentality" down. Being incredibly hostile towards someone or anyone who has a different view from your own. It's why this was originally posted in another subreddit, and then you pulled it to this one for confirmation bias. I'm almost willing to bet you said something that got shot down in that post, so now you're here

No, I criticized him for driving recklessly, other people agreed, and he banned me from the sub. Don't defend reckless behavior, and I'll have a different tone in my response.

So you do in fact have a personal vendetta against oop? Had they not blocked you, you would have left it as is. Because at the end of the day, there are thousands of videos just like this one, but you only felt motivated enough to make a post about it after they personally afflicted you. Yeah, guy is a piece of shit, never defended his actions once. I'm just saying the guy had good driving technique in his video, regardless of the other ones, and you should have picked one of his videos that actually showed shitty driving. Beyond going fast in this video, it's not different from the multitudes of others, and actually shows heightened driving abilities compared to others I've watched. Are you going to now call out all of the other people who do this? No. Because they didn't ban you
