I remember coming down some residential main road in northvan, it was quite backed up with traffic, and a motorcylist decided he could ride the shoulder past everyone (as they normally do), a dude pulled out of his driveway at normal speed, and the motorcylist rammed and flipped over the car, proceeded to lose his marbles on the car driver.
I gave my contact to the car driver, knowing the motorcylist is a typical retard.
Sure enough about a month later icbc calls claiming the "car drove" into the motorcycle, and needed a witness, another month later the car owner called me and said thank you as the charges were blamed 100% on the motorcyclist.
I fucking hate people that will do stupid shit, and then blame innocent people for their stupidity. So many times people dont get any witness, and end up being screwed over.
I think ive mentioned it here before, several years ago i was at a supplier picking up parts on the loading dock.
Im waiting around, and i look out to the main turn around area, a big 10 ton? truck is stopped, and behind him is a smaller workvan.
The 10 ton starts to back up, the workvan starts profusely honking, and the 10 ton driver reverses into the workvan.
It was a clear case of 10 ton driver at fault. I gave my contact to the workvan driver just incase.
A month or two later i get a call from icbc and sure enough, once again, the 10 ton driver claimed that the workvan drove into / rear ended, the 10 ton.
A got a call a few weeks later from the workvan owner offering me cash, because i was the only person who left my number apparently. I just said pass it on obviously. He told me if i ever need a job at another hvac company to call him, i got his number saved just incase lol
Disgusting people

Thanks for these stories. Because of you I'm going to start giving people my number as a witness. I always thought "oh, somebody else will do it", which clearly isn't always true.
This kid with an old Acura TL was stranded in the middle of the road (no1 rd and williams), he had hazards on. Everyone was honking at him but nobody helped. So i pulled over and helped push his car out of the intersection.
Looks like his tranny failed and he cant get it into drive, so i called him a tow truck and his mommy. Kid was stressed as hell, had to keep reminding him to not ride the brake.
Poor kid, all these mean ass china fucks just honking at him
not sure if the kid is unable to learn how to push a car or if they just never dealt with these sitiation.
props to you. people in GVRD loves to honk... ain't going ot make the situation better.. duh
Nothing better when you let a Chinese driver merge into your lane, or merge in front in general, and they proceed to not give you a single look of acknowledgement or thank you, then proceed to drive 20KMs below speed limit now in front of you.
Really starts to turn you into an asshole driver.
I usually like to let people merge, now the GF gets mad at me when I do because of how many times the above occurs.
It's almost a shock when you get a little waive or a thank you back nowadays.

After the 5th person of the day like this I’m ready to brake check them and let them eat the bumper. Can’t believe how fucking oblivious people are.
One day this happened 3-4 seperate times as I drove from Vancouver to Langley and back, fucking morons doing 70 in the left lane I now flick my high beams once or twice and if you make no reaction it’s time for the horn.
Was in my dads F150 fucking towering over some little shit box in the left lane, eventually just laid on the horn for 10+ seconds, ZERO reaction
I go around in the HOV lane and look at the driver, fucking ZERO clue anyone was behind her, does not look over at me, has fucking tunnel vision and absolutely zero awareness of what’s going on around her on the road, zero.
It’s always the exact same person as well, people like this shouldn’t be on the road tbh

I’m convinced that the people who do this are just more comfortable driving in the left lane and they simply and selfishly dgaf about road etiquette and aren’t aware that they’re actually making it more dangerous out there.
Clueless.
