I heard he had a heart attack. Not sure how he's doing or if anyone else was badly injured.

It has nothing to do with political correctness Could mean the difference between crashing and not though.

Heart attack = (usually) conscious
Cardiac arrest = unconscious

Sorry, I should have said what it was (I didn't embed because it's not a dashcam). No gore at all, it's a British Heart Foundation animation.

Encountered this charming example last Saturday. Lanes are clearly marked, both are left turn however left lane is for the expressway ramp and middle lane is for the side road. There's always a long queue in the left hand lane so there are always A'Holes who use the middle lane and then try to bully their way in during the turn. Slightly disappointed with myself for allowing him in in the end instead of trading paint, no sound in the video so you can't hear how he slaps the roof of my car as he passes on the ramp.

The car is a locally produced "Luxgen", https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Luxgen , locally produced low cost "luxury" car. They tend to be driven by idiots, many of who actually seem to think they purchased a Lexus.

I did let him in, hence "Slightly disappointed with myself for allowing him in in the end".

This is it

Ah come on, you were keeping him out at the start.

No excuse for him acting the prat but you didn't do anyone any favors.

Absolutely, and I apologise to absolutely nobody for it! Just sorry I didn't continue to do so given what came next.

Why does he owe the other driver a favour? This attitude is the reason why so many idiots try sh!t like skipping queues because they feel they're too good to wait like everyone else, because they know there'll be a pushover at the front that will let them in, thus delaying everyone else behind them.

Hitching a lift on the shiny tail of the old hay cock trolly.
The one with the winch and rope used to pull the haycock onto the trolly,
having tipped the back down.

Id rather do that than risking what you went through. Been there done that.

Assholes like that should never be let in. Happens so often here too and every time one of them gets away with it, it not only enables that **** but also spawns some new ***** in anyone that seen them.
If nobody lets them in then they might not do it the next time. There should be snipers at every M50 off ramp here for that very behaviour.

They definitely not going to do that again, because you stop them :D:D what world do you live in ? You can only cause more harm by "fighting" them off with your car.

Yeah, so enable them. That’ll really help. I’d be happy to let them hit me.
