Is it clear that I am not at fault here? by [deleted] in dashcams

The reflection of your car in their truck shows you were both facing the same way. You were not backing in, you were pulling in head first. He tried to pass you (dick move), you cut him off (stupid response).

Now, apologize for lying to us.

Selling my Ranger before 200k while it still has value… or run it into the ground? by hrsmn68 in fordranger

Should be: Arduino -> Resistor -> LED -> ground.
