I've actually seen him at a deli right down the road a few times. I'm sure that's where he was going.. he's just an ***.

Show him the video and tell him if you see him doing it one more time, you'll give it to the police

One of these days someone really WILL hit him or vice versa.

I've had the exact same thing happen to me many times, although the other car wasn't a R8. Some people are just impatient. Better to have them go first than to deal with an accident. Nice video.

It looks like that he has no common road courtesy or just simply not being mindful of stop lights/ 4 way stop signs.

I agree. If I had a steel bull guard...oh man, that car would've gotten hit. Not to injure the guy, but maybe rip off his back bumper, or just dent it. Enough to send a message, not enough to get sued. Especially with a dash cam.

That being said, don't have a guard or a cam. I would care about damage to my car way too much to do anything.

Maybe I would've spitted at him when we were close like in the video.

I HATE it when people don't follow the rules like everyone else.

Fully insured or not, it would still make his premium go up a tad bit..no? But then again, he who drives a r8 might not care about premiums, but then again there are those who spend their whole paycheck on material goods..and fight for food.

What dash camera are you using? Quality looks nice.

Any qualms with it?
