    Hey! Your clip caught our attention, and we think it would be perfect for our new compilation on our social networks. Can we include it? We'll give you proper credit.

      Thank goodness I drive with my head on a swivel. I don't know why this driver attempted to pass me in a no passing lane, along with my turn signals running indicating I was making a left turn.
      You can use this, no problem. Please site me as your source.

    Sorry to say but it's always your responsibility to check your mirrors when turning.
    You have no idea if your blinker at the back is working and they may have assumed you were pulling over to the right.
    I'd actually say good driving by both, they clearly slowed down and gave you plenty of space when it was clear where you were going, but one should never assume that blinkers are enough

      that car was going too fast for a residential area. There was no reason to tailgate the bigger car and assume you will have the right of way to pass them just because it is slowed down.
      Aaand that is not a passing zone for their lane. That car is 100% stupid.

      I did check my mirror. That's how I avoided hitting the car.

      @@funniest_shit_ever You can see from the camera he's going at 6mph, the limit is 60mph in that area, it seems perfectly reasonable to try and go around a vehicle going at walking pace on a main road.
      It isn't a 'residential area' just because there are a couple of houses and state law clearly says you can pass in a no passing zone if the vehicle is moving excessively slowly, such as a bicycle (which would be travelling far faster than 6mph)
      You MUST check when turning left.

      @@firstcallseptic1 Oh I agree, good driving from both parties here, but my point is that some seemed to think either party was at fault, i disagree as it's reasonable to think that you were pulling over given the speed and location if they didn't see a blinker for any reason.

      @@xaiano794 so basically you assume what's convenient to you from other drivers, and break the law too? Rules are rules. He almost got hit for assuming and passing on a no pass zone. It doesn't matter what the small car thoguth. They messed up.
