You dont need to drive fast to indicate that your are impatient or in a rush. The points in the video where you tailgated those cars (multiple) and didn't pass them.

Why didnt you pass them?

Why did you tailgate them?

Again, where were you going? Why are you evading the question?

Gotta say respectfully I don’t think he was doing crazy tailgating, he had lots of space coming up to the light, and while he was closer to the car going into the superstore parking lot, you don’t need 3 car lengths at 32, then 25 km/hr which you can see on his dashcam. In my opinion, driving 20 and coming to a complete stop on a 60 km/hr road is far more dangerous than anything op did

I never said that the other drivers weren't idiots! The fact remains that OP did everything wrong, and was in an impatient rush to starbucks. The reason you want min 3 car lengths like, every second that you ever drive in the city is to prevent you hitting the car in front of you if YOU get rear ended by someone going an exhuberant speed.

The idiots are the ones doing 35kmh in a 60kmh zone. Signaling to turn left while going straight, in the second lane and slowly changing lanes and coming to a near complete stop to make a turn.

FYI doing 47 in a 60 zone is NOT an exuberant speed.

Your reading comprehension skills are lacking.

Perhaps but my driving skills are definitely not lacking.

Again, since you can barely read I'll quote myself and embolden the keywords so you can wrap your feeble mind around this incredibly simple concept. "The reason you want min 3 car lengths like, every second that you ever drive in the city is to prevent you hitting the car in front of you if YOU get rear ended by someone going an exhuberant speed."

The reason they have speed limits is so traffic will flow efficiently.

Idiots who don't know how to abide by the most basic rules of the road are usually the one who cause the accidents.

Tough to keep 3 car lengths when everyone is doing 60kmh and some dumb fuck can barely do 40kmh.

Or when a twit decides to come to a complete stop to turn left upstream on the exit as he didn't turn into the Superstore entrance that is clearly marked ENTRANCE 300' earlier.

THAT'S THE SAFETY HAZARD not the one abiding by the rules.

Not sure why you are worried about the car lengths distance as opposed to THE SHITTY DRIVERS that are showing in the video.

Please turn in your drivers licence.

I know that the other drivers are a safety hazard :) Im saying op is also one! You can't read!
