That could have ended badly for all of you. What an absolute idiot. I hope they learned something, but probably not.

I did something like this once and it was the last time I did that.

Probably learned they are able to get away with it. "Yeah, most drivers can't do this but I do it all the time and haven't crashed yet."

Also an idiot for playing chicken just before the bend.

Never mess with the bend!

This is one of the most cinematic dash cams I've ever seen. The twilight, the mountains, the Stones, the commentary.

Same thing happened to me in my neighborhood. White BMW racing straight toward me. I bought a dash cam immediately after.

I would’ve called the police and given them his plate #. He needs to be held accountable as that could’ve easily taken the driver of the black vehicle’s life.

You should probably focus on the road.
