A driver captured footage of a road rage incident on U.S. Route 290 near Austin, Texas. The Infiniti driver was chasing a male after the male allegedly cut off the offender; then things got weird.
Reddit user u/DexFPV posted dashcam footage of an incident he was involved in. The incident came to a crescendo on East U.S. Route 290 near the interchange with State Highway 130. The video begins with the driver going through an intersection and then getting cut off by a black Infiniti G35. The driver attempts to accelerate away but is pursued by the Infiniti. Driving onto a toll highway also isn’t enough to deter the black sedan’s driver.
Moments later, the Infiniti driver cranks his rage up to eleven.
The driver increases his speed up to 98 mph but eventually backs off. The Infiniti driver pulls up alongside the dashcam driver with the driver’s side window open. Shockingly, the Infiniti driver has his arm held high out of the window, brandishing an ax.
I mean, really, who carries an ax in their car?
The black sedan speeds down the highway. Then, the G35 slowly moves over into the center lane behind another car. The Infiniti driver slams on the brakes, but it’s too late. The black sedan smashes into the rear of the other vehicle. The impact rips over the rear bumper off the third vehicle as it’s sent off the road and into a roll in a huge roadside ditch.
So the jagoff Infiniti driver gets away, the sedan driver strikes an innocent vehicle, and the innocent guy gets slammed into a ditch and rolls over. Yeah, I’m fairly certain Texas is off our retirement list.
By the way, you can see video of the incident at the link. It’s insane.
