Dash cam videos can be quite entertaining, and that’s especially true for the one you’re about to watch here, thanks to a rather enthusiastic observer who doubles as a narrator (albeit in Spanish). His excitement would make you think he’s commenting on the World Cup, making this whole ordeal worth watching.
The situation, which probably began slightly before the video commences, takes place in Mexico and involves a Chevrolet Chevy and a Nissan Versa Sedan. For those not familiar with Chevrolet Chevy, the model is a small sedan based off the second-generation Opel Corsa (Corsa B) sold in the Mexican market. The now-discontinued model was also known as the Buick Sail, Chevrolet Classic, Chevrolet Corsa, Holden Barina, and Opel Vita in various markets.
Now, back to the road rage incident: we’re introduced to the ordeal just as the driver of the Nissan Versa and the Chevy go wheel-to-wheel in classic, petty-temper-tantrum fashion. At first, the Versa is tailgating a pickup in front of it in hopes of looking for an opening to get around the Chevy. Having found the smallest of openings, it dangerously overtakes the Chevrolet. The driver of the Chevy tries to retaliate, then ends up spinning out of control, first hitting the median barrier and then bouncing across the road into the wall.
The dramatic narration keeps pace with the action as it unfolds, and adds an overall sense of comedy to an otherwise seriously dangerous situation. While the driver of the Chevrolet Chevy will have a tougher consequence to face, we hope both drivers learned something from this experience… though something tells us that our hopes will be dashed.
Double points if you speak (or understand) Spanish and can appreciate the commentary.
Comments
Let’s get into the brain of that Versa driver: “I’m keeping that Chevy behind me and the truck because then I’m keeping that Chevy driver SAFE! I’m so safe-keeping I am. I’m making that idiot not kill anyone else. I’m making that dangerous Chevy driver be good. … WHAT? He overtook me and now he’s being in front of me? It’s DANGEROUS to be in front of me! I must get back in front to make the Chevy SAFE! … CRASH BANG SMASH! See what that dangerous Chevy driver did to me? He made me crash by overtaking me and making me not be his safety officer-boss-commander-controller.”
That Versa driver? He’s the most dangerous of them all. Every single one of those left-lane-hogs who force everyone to drive in packs only inches away from each other, driving up the rage every mile, they are the dangerous drivers. One police officer, just ONE police officer, is on record pulling over a left-lane-hog in America. We need more left-lane-hog pull-overs by police.
I couldn’t agree more with your assessment!! That is EXACTLY the scenario that plays out every day on highways. I live in a state where it’s the law to stay right EXCEPT to pass. Move past……. move over……..and with a blinker.??
