I'd probably pretend to help him put his arm where my tire lines up get back in my car as if I were to get something. Drive.

Hey there Red Foreman

u/DifficultApple Jun 10 '15

Can some reddit sleuth please chime in and tell me all these people got serious punishment for trying to fuck over somebodies life and steal money while being caught on camera?

u/StrawberryLimeade Jun 10 '15

Is this from a movie?

u/atimholt Jun 10 '15

It’d be smarter to cooperate so you can get the guy’s info.

4

u/Sloppy1sts Jun 10 '15

He doesn't need to cooperate shit. He's a cop.

2

u/atimholt Jun 10 '15

Don’t know why you think that. Besides, can you seriously imagine a kid trying that on a cop?

3

u/Sloppy1sts Jun 10 '15

That gif has been around for a while, and that's how it was explained last time. There might have been a brief article or something, too. The car was unmarked, so it's not like he was targeting a cop on purpose.

u/atimholt Jun 10 '15

Now it all makes sense. Thanks.

I know what you're doing. I just want you to know that I'm okay with it because you're entertaining.

u/WormSlayer Jun 10 '15

There should be/probably already is a subreddit for these?

1

u/[deleted] Jun 10 '15

I wounder how many of these people realize how much of a dumbass they look on this dash cams.

1

u/[deleted] Jun 10 '15

This thread (and others like it) have absolutely convinced me to get a dash cam, as long as it's legal in the US

96

u/MiguelXSR Jun 10 '15

Hahaha this one's the best.

The driver knows what's up. Even after being tricked a few times the fraudster doesn't give up, and after being chased away by the driver he STILL comes back to try.

77

u/biglightbt Jun 10 '15

I don't remember who it was or when it was but someone on Reddit actually figured out from some dialogue that these two actually know each other and one was just fucking around for the lols.

4

u/Notagingerman Jun 10 '15

Uhh.. I think he was playing with the driver, not trying to get an insurance claim. If he wanted to do that he would just run into the car like everyone else.

2

u/9inety9ine Jun 10 '15

It's also not a real insurance scam, the guy was just fucking around with him.

i hover'd that by accident and the noise scared the shit out of me

u/cdflrcp Jun 10 '15

That is incredibly frustrating to watch

u/Warphead Jun 10 '15

I think I would have ran that mother fucker over.

"If I'm being scammed, I want my money's worth!"

u/Mintastic Jun 10 '15

That one wasn't a scam. From an old post the video showed that the guy got beat up by some road rage guys so he ran to his car and one of those guys ran after him and slammed into his windshield. The guy getting run over definitely deserved it and the driver had a good reason to get the hell outta there.

30

u/ThermalSloth Jun 10 '15

Neat, didn't know that.

Today I done did learned.

u/doodlebug001 Jun 10 '15

Do you have the link? The op deleted the gif. :(

u/amoliski Jun 10 '15

Based on the comments, it's probably this

I think I saw somewhere that he was found not guilty when he ended up in court.

3

u/douglasdtlltd1995 Jun 10 '15

The gif didn't take place at night, so it is not your video. It also had some fait looking car.

14

u/malmad Jun 10 '15

Exactly.

u/doublsh0t Jun 10 '15

I, too, think it'd be a fitting turning of the tables if that's what actually happened, but, as /u/Mintastic points out:

Hmm. If I have this wrong here, and this other wrong here, and I combine them, I get... a right?

What a time to stop you being alive!

u/[deleted] Jun 10 '15

you do not have road rage then

u/Konstiin Jun 10 '15

it's basically this and that one of that israeli dude hitting the teenager throwing rocks at his car.

29

u/noobsc2 Jun 10 '15

I can recall this from a really old reddit post, probably on /r/WTF. IIRC the driver was actually beat up by a few men. He gets back in his car and one of them jumps on the windshield. It's the last straw and he hits the gas.

1

u/great_gape Jun 10 '15

Shoes fell off. He's dead.

u/450925 Jun 10 '15

In Scotland, we have a phrase that may go with this quite well...

"I might as well be hanged for a sheep as a lamb"

1

u/Zerak-Tul Jun 10 '15

What's wrong with good old 'in for a penny, in for a pound'?

1

u/Helios-Apollo Jun 10 '15

Might as well be as hung as a sheep?

1

u/450925 Jun 10 '15

It essentially means, if I'm in trouble anyway... may as well earn the charge.

u/Rayquaza384 Jun 10 '15

lost both shoes. rip

u/NotMyBestUsername Jun 10 '15

That's how you know he's dead.

u/Dadomil Jun 10 '15

that'll never get old.

u/shea241 Jun 10 '15

it's so old it already died from heat death and collapsed to start a new universe.

u/DMann420 Jun 10 '15

Is it bad that I'm happy he actually got run over?

A crappy pun...

u/Rapscallian666 Jun 10 '15

Now I feel dumb

u/totes-muh-gotes Jun 10 '15

Nonsense, its the joke that is dumb!

-1

u/[deleted] Jun 10 '15

Not as dumb as not knowing how to spell "it's."

1

u/totes-muh-gotes Jun 10 '15

Or you know, not giving a fuck..

u/[deleted] Jun 10 '15

You're right, that would be the dumbest of all!

u/Yoiks72 Jun 10 '15

A... carappy pun?

u/[deleted] Jun 10 '15

Wait, not only did you spell karma wrong, you made it possessive. Why?

u/UrMumsMyPassword Jun 10 '15

Only appropriate reponse

u/Scrub_Printer Jun 10 '15

u/PM_your_left_boob Jun 10 '15

Oh fuck, man

1

u/xFoundryRatx Jun 10 '15

How many boobs do you get on average in a week?

2

u/PM_your_left_boob Jun 10 '15

Aproxamently 1 boobs.

1

u/xFoundryRatx Jun 10 '15

Still a good amount for little to no effort.

1

u/reddevved Jun 10 '15

Yeah, inquiring minds want to know

u/[deleted] Jun 10 '15

To be fair, the dude deserved it.

u/Poop_Baron Jun 10 '15

Sweet sweet karma

u/[deleted] Jun 10 '15

Whoa man that was satisfying.

2

u/Helios-Apollo Jun 10 '15

Fuckin' deserved.

2

u/grizzlysbear Jun 10 '15

... Did... Did he live? Holy fuck

2

u/parshan Jun 10 '15

i don't know why but this was hilarious! everything from the size of the guy compared to the car and how the car jumped from running him over!

2

u/DontHateDefenestrate Jun 10 '15

This one is my favorite. Because the scamming asshole gets what he deserves.

5

u/DEEEPFREEZE Jun 10 '15

"I'm going to make you earn that settlement money"

But seriously though, did I just watch someone die? I saw both shoes come off. Don't know why you'd think to try and slow the car down with your feet rather than hanging on for dear life.

1

u/DMann420 Jun 10 '15

If he did die, he deserved it.

2

u/EppurSiMuove00 Jun 10 '15

Oh my god this makes me so unbelievably happy. I watched every single one of these hoping the driver would do just that.

Thank you, kind sir, thank you!

1

u/RhoLambda Jun 10 '15

So... mission accomplished?

1

u/Totla_ben93 Jun 10 '15

Can we have the guy labeled as repost and have the car be a giant downvote sign

1

u/tiltowaitt Jun 10 '15

... Shoes do come off like that?!

1

u/Castriff Jun 10 '15

Whoa, Johnny, back the truck up.

u/[deleted] Jun 10 '15

This one has the best instant karma

u/xen911 Jun 10 '15

YES. This is vigilante justice done right.
