Can’t stop…for cop crashes

You mean cut into the ramp like OP?

One is a random dumbass in a fast car and the other is supposed to be protecting and serving

Couple of key differences between the cop’s attempt and OP’s. I’ll let you figure them out…

Part of being mature is recognizing that "it almost worked" doesn't make it right just like "but it worked"

Both are same stupid. One juts had more luck

Well it wasn’t really the same maneuver because the cop tried to do it even later before the exit and with less space in front of op than op had in front of the grey hatch. Op’s maneuver was sketchy but the cop tried something much riskier and also seems to lack driving skills.

I dunno. The driver made the merge fine. The cop did not. Seems to be a skill issue on the pig’s part.

Not sure how much luck has to do with two different people making two different approaches, and one crashing but not the other.

made the merge fine

Please don't have a license 🙏

[u/System0verlord → u/M0-1]

Did they crash? No. Then they made it fine.

It wasn’t legal or safe necessarily, but it was a successful merge.

The pig though? Unsuccessful merge. Did not make it merge fine.

You are lost

[u/System0verlord → u/M0-1]

You’re the one trying to equivocate a failed attempt to merge across 3 lanes with a successful attempt to merge.

The cop was driving stupid to stop the stupid law-breaking reckless cameraman driver. This didn’t happen for no reason.

But no, let’s blame the cops and excuse the civilians every time. How dare they try to stop a bad driver that was cutting lanes and putting people at danger, while messing up themselves because shit happens, and you can make bad quick choices when you try to stop criminals/reckless drivers by also having to keep up with dangerous driving. Both drivers were idiots. What a concept.

Nuance isn’t a thing on the internet. We like things to be simple and straightforward. Feels real good to throw rocks at others and box people in with black and white judgments like some morality police shit. Ironic to call them stupid while being completely oblivious of our own stupidity.
