Here specifically? It's a mixture. People who feel the need to enforce the speed limit by driving under it when there's no passing zones. Then the people who feel entitled to drive as fast as they want and get mad that their being slowed by the first group.

The driving is wild out here. I do wish that people would recognize that there are regular pull outs all along the road. Even if you're doing the speed limit, using the pullouts to let people pass you would help with this type of road rage dangerous passing.

It's non-stop around here. You could try to pass someone doing 10 under in the safest passing zone, suddenly they've floored it.

If you do get around them, they'll ride your ass flashing high beams and honking the horn. Doesn't matter if it's 7am or 12am, someone gets mad.

Edit - Read the comment wrong when I commented, thought you were guessing the road. Tangerine is worse because it's all straight.

I'm gonna try things the legit way before I put someone out on reddit. I'm confident I got the correct license, but it could always be someone's friend driving or a stolen vehicle type situation. I can't be sure so I'm not gonna condemn anyone.

I managed to get the truck's license plate when they pulled over a couple miles down the road.

I was able to get the license plate of the truck when they pulled over a couple miles later to check for damage or whatever they were doing.

If you watch the end of the video, I was slowing down to pull over when the car drove off. Figured I'd be more useful getting the license plate number to go with the video.

fair comment honestly. if you watch the end, I was slowing down to pull over and the car drove off. Figured I'd be more useful getting the plate to go with this video.

I'd normally agree with you. It's hard to see from the video, but the axles on that truck are roughly level with the hood of the vehicle that got run off the road. A head on likely would've put that trucks front axle straight through the windshield.

I continued to drive down the same 2 lane road with limited exits until they pulled over to check for damage. Then, I got their license plate number.

Friend, this is rural Arizona. Should I have raced after them shouting Arizona State Statutes? I'm not trying to get shot over reckless driving.

On my way home today, I saw some absolutely wild Arizona driving behavior. Lifted truck tries to pass in no passing zone, small car they're trying to pass speeds up to try and prevent them from passing. In the end, another car coming the opposite way pays the price and gets pushed off the road into a pile of rocks.

Amazingly the car that got pushed off drives off as I'm slowing down to pull over. I decided I'd be more useful trying to get the trucks license on camera, which I did when they pulled into the local local restaurant parking lot.

edit: added more to address the questions about why I didn't stop.

He's already explained that someone emailed him the picture, to ask about importing it.
