"The WRONG PERSON" implies a compilation of rear endings, pit maneuvers, cops, confrontation...comeuppance even. Not people just being brake checked with some cops sprinkled in.
Or that truck probably falling over or at least "drifting" side-ways on a fucking high-way and the break-checker just leaving. Hows that supposed to be "break-checking wrong person", at least as long as you don't consider that truck driver being wrong cause he over-reacted or something, but that would be idiotic in-itself.
Not so true ! I was driving an articulated truck on the A10 when an ass..hole cut right in front of me to take an exit. (The exit is signed 1.5 Km in advance) I could not slow the truck fast enough due to its size and weight so I ended up just few meters away from the idiot. The Great German Police saw it but because I was driving a British registered vehicle, they did me in for not keeping 50 meters distance behind the M.f..ker ! I had to fork out,on the spot, 185.00 Euro fine ! BASTERDS ! They left the M.F..ker drive away, he was German !
That doesn't exist in Germany. In fact, it is worse. When you report the plate to the police, nothing will happen. Because you have to catch the driver "in flagranti". Not the owner is liable, but the driver. When asked, the owner can simply say he or she wasn't driving and can't remember who was driving the car at given time - and that's it. Unless you cut off a police car or create a warzone, nobody will care and it's all on you alone. Great, isn't it.
Never been brake checked. I was taught how to identify the possibility and compensate. If somebody suddenly gets into your lane in front of you, remove your foot from the gas pedal and slow down at least 5mph and start looking for alternate routes.
That works fine until they also slow down and swerve between each and every lane. Aggressively blocking your freedom to travel. If you haven't seen it. You aren't watching many videos on toad rage or break checkers. It only take about two or three videos to find multiple cases of what I just described.
"...Brake Checked The WRONG PERSON!"? What wrong person? Which wrong person? Where wrong person? Most of these brake checkers suffer no consequences from anyone or anything ... which is a shame.
@@CFITOMAHAWK2 if you get this on dashcam, you call the police they come look at the video and then do nothing.....the video doesn't matter if a cop isn't there at the time it happens, they won't investigate this. Now everyone with a dashcam should have just smashed them in the ass end when brake checked, then called the cops, show cops video then the brake checking party would get in trouble, these guys are doing it all wrong, I've rear ended 2 people bc of brake checking, showed cops video and didn't get anything the brake checker gets all the tickets, and it doesn't hurt my 88 Silverado that's full metal.
Criticism of the trucker at 26:00 was unwarranted. It was a construction zone with moving equipment on the shoulders. He was being cautious. You were being a jerk. Slow down.
BAck in the day...(40yrs) we were taught to drive over them when they stop in front of our semi. That's one stupid driver down instead of a whole road of spilled cargo and many injured or dead innocent drivers. Then we were to get out of the truck and run about screaming hysterically like we couldn't imagine what happened. Pre dash cam.
That still holds true if you’re doing tanker work. Why would I risk tipping over my load and causing an accident when I have dash cam to prove I was brake checked.
Hahaha...I just learned that the law is still in place to pancake any vehicle brake checking a semi. Semi drivers are braking out of consideration even though they are not required to.
11:35 2 cars in the right lane, the guy behind tailgates, flashes his lights and then the person in the "wrong", brake checks. It was a COP?!?! Why is a cop flashing and tailgating
To get them to move out of the left lane. There are rules of the road, including keep right and pass left. That car was keeping left... The cop saw the incorrect driving and was testing the driver and they failed again by not moving even with a car expressing the desire to pass and then brake checked them on top of that!
Toward the end of my years, I’m going to buy the rattiest large rusted out F350 with a huge steel bumper and just wait for a brake checker. Demolition Derby mode activated. I hope it’s a BMW driver too! 🤗
One of my friends' wife used to enthusiastically drive their beater F-150. She loved that truck more than her Mercedes! It was just like you were describing. Rusted to the point it looked like it had a communicable disease, with mismatched fender on one side and mismatched quarter panel on the other. Had a big knob of a hitch on the back (but I don't think she had the two balls hanging, lol!), and what must have been a Kenworth bumper on the front. It was a tall truck; just somewhat jacked up so that most car drivers couldn't see UP and INTO the driver's seat while in traffic. If they could, they'd see a little old lady just toddling along jamming to Sinatra or Elvis, hahaha! But when she would put on her turn signals, it was like watching a flock of geese all take off at once trying to escape a predator!
That would be fun. Install a train engine horn, scare the crap out of them I plan to install one in my new car. And keep the original horn working, and the train horn on a separate switch.
What you are proposing is "zero tolerance". I get it, because I hate brake-checkers too. But let me paint you a picture. You pass somebody. Legally. You used your signals, moved into the passing lane, put on the gas, and passed them promptly and timely, and you didn't dilly-dally driving next to them for 10 miles, like a lot of idiots do. You signal, now you move in front of them, because the passing lane is for passing ONLY. And...uh oh, you see a dog to your front. Or a deer. Or an elk. Or a person. You have NO IDEA what this animal or person might do, so you step on the brake to bleed off some speed so that you will have more reaction time in case that animal or person darts into your path. Here's the question: Did you brake check? What if the driver behind you doesn't see the animal? What if the cop behind and to your right can't see the animal either? Are you going to lose your car for this? People are wrongly accused all the time, you know. "Zero tolerance" is almost always a bad policy.
@@justaskin8523 Yes, Zero tolerance for accident causers. Duhh. Some brake checkers even get shot at due the car or truck behind think they are going to kidnap or carjack and want him to stop. I aprove.
At 21:12...when I was a kid, we used to call those really tall motorcycle handlebars "ape hangers". I even had something like that on my bicycle when I was 12 years old, lol!
To you Americans. I know it is not your native language but to brake is the act of applying the " brakes" in your car. Break is when things are broken like your car when you brake check. Any other help you may need with the language just ask
Our state police LOVE when we provide the license plate and video of a "brake checker". And yes, they will arrive at your house with your ticket(s) if they do not locate you on the road.
If you're in the passing lane and somebody zooms past you, get's in front of you, then break checks you. Why, pray tell do you think that they would do such a thing? GET OUT OF THE PASSING LANE IF YOU ARE NOT F'EN PASSING!
In some states in the US, you can get a ticket for "lollygagging" in a passing lane. It should always be that way. And if the lollygagger tells the cop that he just wasn't paying attention, then maybe he should get a big fine, then lose his license and insurability for 6 months. If we hit them in the wallet, most people will adapt to expectations and will improve their skills.
Don't ever mess with a semi trucker. Why would you risk your life and others around you. Give them space AND respect. You never know when you will need their help. Plus they keep the country going. (Food? Home goods? Auto parts?, etc)
At 9:28, the cammer was driving in the passing lane AND NOT PASSING ANYBODY. The person behind them had EVERY RIGHT to flash their lights. That's what you're supposed to do when you want to pass somebody: Flash your bright lights in their rear-view mirrors so that they see you and move over. That's courtesy. The cammer was lollygagging, just being lazy in the passing lane. The cammer should have gotten a ticket. The brake-checker should have gotten a ticket too. In fact, the next two clips AFTER that one also showed people in the left lane (the passing lane) but not passing. In the US, the left lane is for passing. Also at 20:40, another cammer driving in the left lane and NOT passing. Also at 21:17. This was in another country, where they drive on the left side. But here too, somebody was camping out in the far right lane, the passing lane. Yes, the brake-checker should get a ticket. But so should the person not passing in the passing lane. And AGAIN at 21:55, the person who got brake-checked was driving slow in the passing lane!
All these brake checkers! I wonder if they realize there is an army of old geezers with POS $3000 pickups and slow reaction times? It would be a shame if I couldn’t react in time to avoid totaling your $40000 car. I would feel so bad about that.
3:41 he probably doesn’t stop for any emergency services and then gets $1000 fine, and wonders why. 13:26. I don’t understand what the anger was about. Because they certainly didn’t have the right of way. All traffic coming from the right, has right of way. Since this is Scotland they also drive on the left-hand side of the road.
There's a difference between lane splitting and lane filtering. What the motorcyclist did was lane filtering. That's when you move forward to the head of the line at a stoplight. It's not meant to piss car drivers off; it's a maneuver that helps keep motorcyclists safer by getting them out from between cars. There is a long history of car drivers who don't pay attention to motorcyclists and sandwich them between bumpers.
I don't care what it's called. It's dangerous and should not be allowed. Motorcycle riders all say that cars shouldn't share the lanes with motorcycles. I agree with that. But lane splitting/filtering (whatever the hell it is called) is the same thing in reverse, which is the motorcycle sharing the lane with cars. If something is bad for the goose, then it's bad for the gander too. All lane splitting, spitting, filtering, chuffing, knuffing, lolling, or gagging should be illegal. Bikers can pass when a LEGITIMATE gap opens up, not whenever they feel like it.
@justaskin8523 I was just discussing this with my friend, and he reminded me not to argue with anyone who does not care to LEARN any new and distinct terminology, and therefore probably lacks the ability to understand the differences between terms, regardless of how incorrect they may be. Good day.
No, it’s called, “I’m an idiot on a motorcycle and since I can fit between cars and not have to wait like everyone else, I’ll just perform an illegal maneuver to stay ahead”.
These kinds of drivers are very dangerous for new drivers. These people play with other's lives like drunk drivers. These people, when caught, should have points taken off their license. They should be fined and ordered to retake the written and road test with highway clean up. This is sickening.
At 14:41, that's not a brake check. The driver in the right lane comes upon some construction traffic barrels in the right shoulder. He was just slowing down because he probably didn't know if the barrels were marking a merge to the left. The smartest thing for him to do WAS INDEED TO SLOW DOWN, so that he had more time to merge to his left if he really was going to lose his lane. Not a brake check.
People from the USA really need to learn the difference between Break and Brake. They get it wrong half the time on all these types of dash cam videos. I shouldn't let little things like this bug me, but they do damn it.
People that do this crap need to have their licenses suspended for 2 years. Make them think about what they did. 2nd offense 5 years. 3rd time permanent suspension.
yeah half these drivers didnt even brake check- they normal braked and the morons up their tailpipes almost caused the accident by being too close for normal traffic reaction time
Unfortunately, the title of your video is misleading. Yes these were brake checks, but only a few of them brake checked the wrong person. I always give a thumbs up, but not today.
Why do people brake check? I know that some people do it because the feel slighted when someone is travelling too close behind them, but a lot of these driver’s seem to be doing it for no rhyme or reason
Don’t take this the wrong way. Brake checking is one of the dumbest moves you can pull on the road, but a lot of these were people driving slow in the left lane, either making someone mad, or getting mad they’re being tailgated.
With all the dash cams these days ppl gotta be stupid to brake check! Ppl can just send the vids to the police and it’s got their license plate on it!😂
Some clips were not even brake checks, such as the idiot pulling out in front of the ambulance and getting pulled over by the cop. The descriptions often didn't match the severity of the brake checks.
Without defending or condoning brake-checking under any circumstances, I must mention that this video contains a great many examples of chronic passing lane hogs who should have moved over.
20:16 The way this guy talked at the time I have at the beginning I was waiting for him to say "I'll be back" he kind of said he kind of sounded like Arnold Schwarzenegger.
I'm a Highly skilled driver and I have seen the worse of the worst. I had to start driving what looked like a police car to keep other drivers from acting like asshats and even with that I still got hit while at a redlight by a lady on her phone doing 60mph... now it hurts to drive! I miss my 2011 cvpi, she was a great car for being a courier driving 300+ miles per day. My dash cam "disappeared" after the crash (I think the cops lost it) All I got to keep off the car was my mag wheels as all my stuff was taken while at the tow yard.... I still has ptsd from that hit! It was the only time I wasn't able to see it coming and get out of the way in a split sec! I may never get to drive without pain making it not any fun to drive where before, I'd use any chance I could just to be on the road and behind the wheel.... I only got 17k from the settlement and 7,500$ to replace my car. I lost a mint 2011 Crown Vic, my job and any hope of getting back on the road like I had been been for the past 6 years working as a courier. My life as a "super driver" is over and my dreams of becoming one of the best drivers in the world isn't going to happen now. I'm too broke and broken. I don't know what I'm going to do now, all I've been doing is trying to get better and keep from losing my mind... I failed.
this video is just not living up to the title at all. Should be called - video where people activate brake lights. Sorry, the is not that interesting title. Neither is this video...
why do people do such things?? yesterday a maniac tried to overtake me without giving any signs, driving almost parallel to me!! i had to almost stop..to avoid the accident by 1 cm, while doing that i was sure there will be a crash....the guy in a car was a frustrated ugly man...with a wife. he most probably beats her! That is an obvious anger problem for hospitalization. In this footage, I do not understand why when you are in front of a car, you need to break!??
5:43 if you cant see the Mustang riding that guys a**, which resulted in the break check, you need to get an eye exam. Pretty sure tailgating that close, is a good reason.
16:40 even tho there were empty lanes, in most countries it's ilegal to undertake a car (pass on the right in right hand drive traffic, or the left on left hand drive traffic like in that segment)
great video! you really captured some crazy moments. but honestly, i think it’s a bit unfair to call these drivers “idiots” without knowing the full story. sometimes there might be reasons behind their reactions that we don't see.
I never understand why people cut off and break check semi trucks, they’re just asking for hospital time, I always get far up before changing lanes. I swear we get more dumb drivers every day 🤦🤦

People are stupid. If you brake check someone and they hit you, you are automatically at fault and will lose in a court case and insurance.
I've never heard of break checking until watching these.
................. Great, now that you've heard of it... Maybe, now you can spell it correctly. Brake not Break.
@dfie5981 I sure do appreciate the spell check!! Thank you and have a great day! I hope you did everyone that courtesy. 🫡
I am noticing that so many of these brake checkees are tailgaters. Gee, I wonder if there's a correlation.
I think the correlation, are drivers in the left lane driving slow, with a clear open right lane.
many of these aren't brake checks. Randomly slowing down when someone is nowhere near you is not a brake check.
Brake check is such a reckless move; it just fuels road rage.
Думаю, що правилами треба дозволити таранити таких "вчителів гальмувати" і зобов'зати їх сплачувати ремонт обох транспортів!
these kinds ofvids leadme to get a dashcam. best things ever.
Unfortunately, the title of your video is misleading. Yes these were brake checks, but only a few of them brake checked the wrong person. I always give a thumbs up, but not today.
I think if you're caught brake checking you should get 1-3 months in jail and vehicle impounded.... unnecessary dangerous bs has to stop
Brake check? A lot of these seem to be attempted insurance fraud.
Love the background music epic 😂
People, arm yourselves against road ragers and homeless people attacking you
Why do people brake check? I know that some people do it because the feel slighted when someone is travelling too close behind them, but a lot of these driver’s seem to be doing it for no rhyme or reason
I enjoyed the video.
I hope to see another good video next time.
Have a nice day.
Who the hell brake check a fire truck.??
12:13 I saw this somewhere else. The person with the camera actually sped up when the pick up tried to pass.
Lmfao gotta love seeing red and blues unfortunately for the offender. 🤣
Haha the guy in white mini acting all tough, it's a hairdressers car bloody mini 😂
You're doing awesome! Love the videos😎
Don’t take this the wrong way. Brake checking is one of the dumbest moves you can pull on the road, but a lot of these were people driving slow in the left lane, either making someone mad, or getting mad they’re being tailgated.
What a drama queen heading. 4 in & I haven't seen anyone brake check the wrong person.
Brake checkers should have their own freeway lane so they can play with each other and the rest of us be a lot safer.
Not funny. Duhh !
With all the dash cams these days ppl gotta be stupid to brake check! Ppl can just send the vids to the police and it’s got their license plate on it!😂
no, bcs dash cam are not evidence in 99% of countries
9:00 It’s not a good idea to brake check a cop when you don’t have your lights on and are driving drunk. There, I fixed it.
Police should be looking for this to happen..More tickets more revenue
The for no reason break checkers are the ones going for insurance fraud!!!🤔🤔🤔
Dull as dishwater.
10:25 trucks hanging out in the left lane are just asking for this type of situation, especially in a state like Oregon with split speed limits.
Some clips were not even brake checks, such as the idiot pulling out in front of the ambulance and getting pulled over by the cop. The descriptions often didn't match the severity of the brake checks.
Without defending or condoning brake-checking under any circumstances, I must mention that this video contains a great many examples of chronic passing lane hogs who should have moved over.
Wow, great start for a fails compilation. That was completely and obliviously on purpose and under control
8:53 i BET THE GUY/GAL IN THE OTHER CAR IS UPSET THAT THEY COILNDT BRAKE CHECK HIM
There’s a special kind of hell for brake checkers lol
That is me on Grand Theft Auto.
20:16 The way this guy talked at the time I have at the beginning I was waiting for him to say "I'll be back" he kind of said he kind of sounded like
Arnold Schwarzenegger.
0:15 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
🥇🏆
The video at 10:20, is in Chilliwack, British Columbia, Canada. On Highway 1
Lane splitting is a good way to get killed.
left lane owners... nobody else on the road move right
Brake check... _Bwoop-bwoop!_
I'm a Highly skilled driver and I have seen the worse of the worst. I had to start driving what looked like a police car to keep other drivers from acting like asshats and even with that I still got hit while at a redlight by a lady on her phone doing 60mph... now it hurts to drive! I miss my 2011 cvpi, she was a great car for being a courier driving 300+ miles per day. My dash cam "disappeared" after the crash (I think the cops lost it) All I got to keep off the car was my mag wheels as all my stuff was taken while at the tow yard.... I still has ptsd from that hit! It was the only time I wasn't able to see it coming and get out of the way in a split sec! I may never get to drive without pain making it not any fun to drive where before, I'd use any chance I could just to be on the road and behind the wheel.... I only got 17k from the settlement and 7,500$ to replace my car. I lost a mint 2011 Crown Vic, my job and any hope of getting back on the road like I had been been for the past 6 years working as a courier. My life as a "super driver" is over and my dreams of becoming one of the best drivers in the world isn't going to happen now. I'm too broke and broken. I don't know what I'm going to do now, all I've been doing is trying to get better and keep from losing my mind... I failed.
3:28 in the HUNGARIAN
Good job filming them. They will loose in court
@12:00 the cop was aggressively driving and following way too close, that was a setup to pull the guy over and extort money from the driver
The fire truck got that dude a good fine
this video is just not living up to the title at all. Should be called - video where people activate brake lights. Sorry, the is not that interesting title. Neither is this video...
why do people do such things?? yesterday a maniac tried to overtake me without giving any signs, driving almost parallel to me!! i had to almost stop..to avoid the accident by 1 cm, while doing that i was sure there will be a crash....the guy in a car was a frustrated ugly man...with a wife. he most probably beats her! That is an obvious anger problem for hospitalization. In this footage, I do not understand why when you are in front of a car, you need to break!??
I dont break check tailgaters. I down shift 2 gears and then watch the fun unfold in my rear view mirrors
12:55 The semi was entering and the pickup thought they were going to get hit so they swerved to the right and hit the brakes.
5:43 if you cant see the Mustang riding that guys a**, which resulted in the break check, you need to get an eye exam. Pretty sure tailgating that close, is a good reason.
16:40 even tho there were empty lanes, in most countries it's ilegal to undertake a car (pass on the right in right hand drive traffic, or the left on left hand drive traffic like in that segment)
great video! you really captured some crazy moments. but honestly, i think it’s a bit unfair to call these drivers “idiots” without knowing the full story. sometimes there might be reasons behind their reactions that we don't see.
Get out and act like you're going to hit me. Hahahahaha.
The cop at 11:40 100% instigated that. Hes a dirty tailgaiter.
08:43 While there IS quick thinking involved those "reflexes" are actually called "instant torque". It's (most likely) a Tesla, they can do that.
4:08 She actually deliberately hit the biker as he went past. You can hear the crunch and see the deflection on the camera.
I never understand why people cut off and break check semi trucks, they’re just asking for hospital time, I always get far up before changing lanes. I swear we get more dumb drivers every day 🤦🤦
Brake Checking should be a two week license suspension or $500 fine. It's technically reckless driving and endangering others.
Can a 1900 model t brake check another model t and if so does this also mean a horse and buggy can woa check another horse and buggy?
15:18. Lmao i know this street. Ive had a similar occurrence here when i was younger.
00:35 what's with blurring the highway signs?? who are you trying to protect??
They find out that vehicle tag is expensive when they play with me.
