00:00I didn't run you over!
00:12You're washed out from before the south side!
00:15She didn't even...
00:16Are you recording me?
00:17Get that shit out of your head!
00:19You mean merging or trying to run me over?
00:46This is why you should not leave your key fob
00:49in your car.
00:50Because I got in with my pizza
00:51and I got the shit scared out of me
00:53by this dog
00:54that's not my dog
00:56or my car.
00:57Oh, my God.
00:59In the last few years,
01:01the number of Americans on the road
01:03has skyrocketed.
01:05And that means more traffic,
01:07more accidents,
01:12and also more rage.
01:14You got a problem,
01:15zip out your car!
01:17With violent road rage of nearly 500%.
01:29This is where the rubber
01:31beats the road.
01:32meets the road.
01:42With lots of power and relatively little weight,
01:45motorcycles have long held an acceleration advantage over cars.
01:51An edge that bikers often use at stoplights to pull away from traffic.
01:55A smart move for these vulnerable vehicles.
01:59But when some drivers encounter this practice,
02:02it can lead to a heated battle.
02:05In Australia,
02:07a motorcyclist sits at a red light on a three-lane road,
02:12which merges into two lanes after the light.
02:15after the light.
02:18On green,
02:19the biker
02:20swaddles away from the other cars
02:24until a black car appears on his left.
02:29The near miss prompts the biker to accelerate even more
02:33past the slower vehicle.
02:36But the black car is right behind him.
02:38then surges ahead and appears to hit the brakes and changes lanes in front of him down the road.
02:50until finally,
03:03as the two motorists come face to face,
03:06the driver flips the bird
03:09and the biker
03:11takes a shot at her mirror.
03:16The dueling motorists approach another intersection
03:18where the driver pulls out her phone to record.
03:23You recorded the whole thing and you're trying to run me over.
03:26Jumping lanes and trying to me over.
03:28What an example to set for your kid.
03:30That's so funny.
03:31You set that example for your kid, do you?
03:33You're driving.
03:35Thanks for bashing me on your screen.
03:37Your windscreen?
03:39After you tried to kill me on the road.
03:41But the driver's perspective is a bit different.
03:44I've got the whole thing recorded on the chin cam.
03:45Hey?
03:46How?
03:48How?
03:50You mean merging or trying to run me over?
03:55Fortunately, the light turns green and the argument is put on hold.
04:01And when they stop at another intersection.
04:03You should operate your phone some more while you're driving.
04:08This time, the driver wisely disengages.
04:14Hopefully having learned that some battles aren't worth fighting.
04:18And acting out in any way just brings out the worst in everyone.
04:27According to police across the country.
04:43You dinosaur.
04:44Over the past few years, road rage events.
04:49Next time I'm going to run your stupid ass over.
04:52You piece of .
04:53Have risen sharply.
04:54I didn't run you over.
04:56Your walked down from before the stop sign.
04:59She didn't even look up.
05:01Get that .
05:03Hey, what?
05:04Get that .
05:05And while psychologists have speculated reasons.
05:09From economic stress.
05:11To a decrease of in-person interaction in society.
05:16Which can lead to a breakdown of social norms.
05:18The most frightening incidents.
05:22Are the ones where the reasons remain completely unknown.
05:26In Terre Haute, Indiana.
05:29Ron May's home security camera records.
05:32As he and his girlfriend, Angel.
05:35Arrive home after a night out at the local casino.
05:38We was having a great time.
05:40Actually walked out of there with a little bit of cash.
05:41So it was a great night.
05:43But as Ron pulls in.
05:44He notices an unfamiliar truck.
05:46Just off screen to the right.
05:48Follow them into their cul-de-sac.
05:50Living in the cul-de-sac.
05:51You know all the vehicles that surround you.
05:53And that was not one that was ever seen before.
05:56The vehicle pulled at the end of my driveway.
05:58And he's aiming at my house.
05:59So I definitely knew something was wrong at that point.
06:02Not willing to take any chances.
06:04Ron, who carries a pistol.
06:07Exits the vehicle and moves the firearm to his front pocket.
06:11As a warning.
06:13When suddenly.
06:24In Indiana.
06:26Ron May and his girlfriend, Angel.
06:29Are returning home from a night out.
06:31When, off screen to the right.
06:33Ron spots what he thinks is a suspicious pickup.
06:36Follow them into their cul-de-sac.
06:38This vehicle parked at the very end of my driveway.
06:39There's no reason why the vehicle should have been positioned that way.
06:43Unless you're actually pulling into my home.
06:45Because Ron fears for his and his girlfriend's safety.
06:49As he exits his Corvette.
06:51He shifts the gun he carries to his front pocket.
06:54As a visible warning.
06:55But what happens next.
06:56Is as terrifying as it is unexpected.
06:58I'm waiting for him to say hi, hello, something.
07:12Then he can yell at the top of his lungs.
07:14And then just floored the vehicle at me.
07:15After Ron fires several shots at the vehicle, his security camera stops recording.
07:29Just as the man is crawling out his window.
07:32But for Ron, the nightmare continues.
07:35I knew my leg was already broken.
07:37So I'm literally hopping around the truck to continue to defend myself.
07:42He was pouring out of the vehicle.
07:44By the time I got around the truck.
07:46He had actually already fled.
07:48According to news reports.
07:50Police later find the suspect with multiple gunshot wounds.
07:52And discover he allegedly ran a vehicle into another man earlier that night.
07:59According to court records, he faces 10 charges.
08:03Including attempted murder.
08:05And battery by means of a deadly weapon.
08:08The reasons for his alleged actions remain unknown.
08:12The case is ongoing.
08:14And though Ron reports his girlfriend suffers minor injuries.
08:18He is left grappling with multiple wounds.
08:20I had a heavy laceration on my left heel.
08:24I broke both my tibia and fibula.
08:27And my shin area.
08:29Any time I hear a revving motor or something like that, I guess I got a little PTSD on that.
08:34Thankfully, everyone survives this horrifying encounter.
08:39Which Ron credits to being attentive.
08:41Just always be aware of your surroundings.
08:43And look for those exit strategies.
08:45Just know if something goes wrong, what am I going to do?
08:47Because you always have to have a way out.
08:50It's estimated that the automotive industry produces more than 85 million cars and trucks worldwide each year.
09:06With many models sharing similar platforms and design trends.
09:11Which can sometimes make finding one's vehicle in a sea of look-alikes a bit tricky.
09:17Like for this man, who, despite appearing to have unlocked a car across the street with his remote, climbs into what is allegedly someone else's unlocked car.
09:30Pausing to adjust the cramped seat.
09:33But once comfortable, things are no go until finally he sees the light.
09:50And quickly corrects his possibly embarrassing but ultimately harmless nighttime blunder.
09:59but for these two women in the hotel parking lot no it is right come on are you sure they
10:07can't blame nighttime I don't remember having a car suit for their confusion well let me see
10:13hold on turn it on let me see this is not the right cookie oh this would be so bad
10:21and while the two white SUVs are virtual doppelgangers once inside the correct car
10:37it's clear their trappings are worlds apart you should look at this Palestinian thing is so cute
10:51fortunately they didn't get very far with their mistake unlike this driver in Montana who was able
11:06to drive away in the wrong car thanks to modern technology okay this is my car right here this
11:14is why you should not leave your key fob in your car because I got in with my pizza from higher
11:20ground and I got scared out of me by this dog that's not my dog or my car oh my god in this
11:28case the cars are actually the same make and model an understandable mistake yeah so don't leave your
11:35key fob in your car but the incident makes such an impression that when he is able the man tracks down
11:42the other owner to make nice and finds out she's as chill as her dog this is Cynthia so good same eyes
11:54that we're looking at me from the car this is still not my dog but this is Cynthia and Fletcher new
12:03friends thanks to an understandable mistake they'll all remember good boy Fletch he wanted your pizza
12:10in the US all 50 states have what are known as move over laws which direct drivers to slow down and move
12:27over whenever they approach a stopped emergency vehicle or road crew but despite these potentially
12:34life-saving statutes the danger to people on the roadside remains extreme in Des Moines Iowa during the
12:50morning rush on i-235 a police officer and a d-o-t worker come to the aid of a disabled pickup the d-o-t
13:00trucks rear-facing camera records as most highway traffic leaves an empty lane of clearance but as an
13:07added precaution the d-o-t worker retrieves some cones and begins setting them out for even more visibility
13:15but as the police officer walks back to meet the d-o-t worker the additional precautions are apparently
13:27not enough
13:29in Iowa a disabled vehicle on the freeway shoulder is assisted by a police officer
13:42and a d-o-t worker who begins to set out traffic cones for added visibility
13:49but before he's even able to get the second cone on the road
13:53as the worker attempts to establish a safety zone a black sedan enters the highway but instead of merging
14:09left it drifts right the worker narrowly leaps clear
14:15while the officer tries to avoid the ricochet
14:21the sedan comes to a stop ahead as the officer manages to stand up
14:32before collapsing behind the barricade where the d-o-t worker and the driver of the initial disabled
14:45vehicle check on his well-being according to the police report the officer somehow only sustains an arm
14:54injury the 18 year old driver who crashed claims he attempted to move to the left lane but cars were in his way
15:02he is cited for failure to maintain control and failure to change lane upon approach to emergency stationary vehicle resulting in injury
15:13it's a reminder that drivers must always keep an eye out for roadside stoppages and leave plenty of room which is not only the law but is also potentially
15:26a lifesaver
15:30for many motorcycle riders around the world the attraction of a bike is not just its fuel efficiency
15:44and ability to swiftly maneuver through traffic but also the ability to stunt which is sometimes unwisely
15:53attempted on public roads a practice that's not only dangerous for the bikers
16:00but also other motorists and he wrecked he just wrecked
16:07which is why police often have little patience for motorcyclists who ride dangerously assuming of course
16:17they can catch them
16:21in osasco brazil motorcycle officers from the municipal civil guard pursue a rider and passenger
16:32who moments before
16:35appear to be performing dangerous stunts on public streets
16:40and allegedly driving with their license plate covered
16:43now officers are trying to get this duel off the road
16:48before they harm themselves
16:50or
16:52anyone else
16:55but the stunt rider
16:57pranks the throttle
17:00and races out of sight
17:05unsure which route the bikers took
17:10officers scan the streets
17:13but with every passing block
17:17and no sign of the renegade bikers
17:20it appears the hard charging suspects have given officers the slip
17:26in brazil
17:36in brazil
17:36motorcycle police pursue a biker and his passenger for allegedly performing illegal stunts and covering their plates
17:46but with some dangerous moves
17:51the suspects leave the officers
17:53in their dust
17:57in their dust
18:00until finally
18:02one officer spots the biker turning down a congested road
18:06right past cruisers called in as backup
18:11but the clunky SUVs are no match for the nimble
18:15this of a bike
18:16leaving it to the now lone motorcycle officer to not lose them again
18:21the rider tries to shake him driving on the wrong side of the road
18:26but this officer has been highly trained for just this sort of needle threading pursuit
18:38and he matches the biker move for move
18:45even the arrival of a backup unit with an officer pointing what appears to be a gun
18:51fails to slow the suspect down
18:54the chase continues down some winding roads
18:59and through narrow alleys
19:04onto a one-way street in the wrong direction
19:11populated with speed bumps
19:15that send the suspect's passenger airborne
19:21but they still can't put any distance
19:24between themselves and the cop
19:32even when charging headlong through red lights
19:39and hitting turns so tightly
19:43the side of their bike scrapes pavement
19:47then growing desperate
19:49the duo darts down a back alley
19:54that gets more and more narrow
19:57with barely enough room for them to squeeze through
20:01but as skilled as the biker is
20:05a narrow staircase
20:12the man admits he was driving without a license
20:16and was too scared to stop
20:20surprisingly the biker seems to be let off with just a warning
20:24but his bike is confiscated by authorities
20:28considering the foolish risks he took
20:32in the near misses they survive

21:05that this dangerous chase
21:07didn't cost them much more
21:11than a motorcycle
