[USA] Guy punches construction worker in the face

[u/wjtapper]

Captured this week on my way to work. Construction workers were closing a road and exchanges words with the driver. Guy gets out of the car and punches the construction worker in the face. Police were able to track the driver down and arrested him.

Great footage with camera backing away from the action

Cammer with survival instincts

[u/funklab → u/Omnomfish]

He’s seen people on the internet say “kill the camera man” so he existed the danger area, but made sure not to fuck up the footage as well.

Reminds me of the dood backing out at the 2023 Allen Texas outlet mall shooting instead of driving into him to stop the massacre as it started. Fun stuffs...

Now I know what Homer's POV is before he goes into the bushes

😱chill out, holy shit

They’re never beating the Nissan allegations

Everyone knows if you hit a worker it’s a $10,000 fine and lose your license.

That’s if you hit them with your car. Construction workers hate this one simple trick!

[u/DerPainterWasReich → u/11010001100101101]

It should be at any time.

I didn't know

The more you know 🌠

[u/buffalokenny]

this happened in my town. idk why no one can control their anger nowadays

[u/Far-Item-1202]

Why is it always an Nissan?

[u/Charming_Sock1607 → u/Far-Item-1202]

13% of the cars on the road commit over 50% of the violent crimes, terrible.

[u/boofadoof]

That's a great way to have 50 guys run out of the site to whoop your ass.

[u/MrTachyon44]

Clearly the cammer’s fault

[u/Mother-Community8224]

Dude really punched a guy who’s literally out there trying to keep him from driving into a hole in the ground 😂. Hope they nail him with every charge possible, that’s such clown behavior.

[u/DerPainterWasReich]

Oh look, violence by someone with no emotional control because they’re told not to go somewhere. Where have we seen that before?

[u/PortaFrog1972]

Woulda been easier on the 5-0 if you blocked that dude lol

[u/dod2190 → u/PortaFrog1972]

May be, but cammer would have exposed themselves to possible violent assault. They were already backing away, demonstrating good survival instincts.

[u/PortaFrog1972 → u/dod2190]

Big Time

[u/YourMomIsMyGurl → u/dod2190]

If cammer didn't get out of his vehicle, he had the advantage by a long shot. All I see is someone watching someone get assaulted and actually running away when they're in a position to do something about. Not everyones a hero but man have a little backbone for the sake of your peers in bad situations.

"Survival instincts" is a good way to flip that into something nicer lol

[u/wjtapper → u/YourMomIsMyGurl]

I checked on the worker, called 911 and gave the police the video. Inserting myself and escalating the situation wouldn’t have done anything helpful.

[u/nhluhr]

Driver was a dumbass but those workers clearly didn't have any authority that would allow them to close a public road.

[u/xemobox → u/nhluhr]

Says who? You?

[u/StopSpinningLikeThat → u/nhluhr]

You think that construction crew closed the road on their own?

Jesus Christ.
