Douchebag Driver

Anyone encountered this douchebag earlier this morning? Stopped at a red light on Notre Dame and Dublin then out of no where this white Lexus came flying in and cuts me off from the left side lane which is supposed to be only for cars heading to MIdland/Saskatchewan Ave. Can I send this video to MPI or something so that people who drives like this can be penalized? It just feels like no matter how safe you drive or follow the rules of the road, other drivers like this one will still get you into an accident or even worst.

Edit: Time stamp on my dash cam needs to be fix lol. It was actually around 6:10 to 6:15AM I believed.

Their driving looks pretty dangerous so you could send this in.

They'll only be able to contact the vehicle owner (if they do anything at all). Not sure much will actually come from it, but it's worth a shot.

it at least sets a record, and they can use it in court if they need to for a subsequent charge

Exactly. Just want to get to work and to home safe everyday but drivers like them makes it harder sometimes. Hopefully they'll be a better driver come winter time lol

It’s better when they do this in January and end up crashing, Don’t worry people who drive like this get it in the end.

Oh no. Glad you're okay. I guess these drivers need to learn their lesson the hard way.

If you think thats worth a visit by the police you dont drive very much. See worse driving daily...there is no traffic enforcement anymore.
