[QUOTE=reevezy67;42486634]What an asshole, even if someone is a dick you shouldn't ram the back of their car. It makes you just as bad if not worse than them.
Beep the horn and get on with your life.
Not to mention the bus driver sped up to stop a guy from cutting him off in one clip, that is really dangerous.[/QUOTE]
He doesn't ram them, he just doesn't brake. The guys who are cutting him off expect the bus driver to brake and he doesn't, so they end up colliding.

Not braking is the same as ramming. I still don't think it is right even if they did cut him off.
From what I can see in the video I personally think they all deserved it, they where cutting the bus off and some of them even braked with room ahead of them.
[QUOTE=V12US;42486805]Amazing how some of these assholes get out of their cars and raise their hands all "[i]what the fuck are you doing mate[/i]" after they cut off a bus like that.[/QUOTE]
Quite a lot of people don't seem to understand the fact that semi trucks, buses, and work trucks can weigh multiple times their vehicle (especially a fully loaded semi), and that much weight takes a [i]lot[/i] longer to slow down. And then they get pissed when it's their fault, because a bus/semi/full-size pickup should stop on a dime like their little sedan.
He's kind of an asshole for hitting people on purpose at times when it can be avoided, but man there's just something so incredibly satisfying about watching someone have their ass-end crumpled in because they thought they could get away with their cheeky little shit cutoff manoeuvre.
My favourites are when the car tries to get away and he gives 'em a few more love taps for good measure.
He's like, living the ultimate road rage fantasy that I'll never get to.

Better them than the possible 20+ passengers in the bus.
To everyone who thinks that because the car in front brakes, it means they were trying to get hit:
Have you ever driven a car? When you pass someone, you speed up and then slow down after you pass them. These assholes just made close cuts and cut off the bus and then tried to unrealistically slow back down after.

Most of the people had plenty of room in front of them, they didn't have to slow down as soon as they did, nor to the extent that they did. If you're cutting in between someone and a car in front of them, sure, they'd hit their brakes. But in [i]most[/i] of those cases, that had at [i]least[/i] one car length, if not more, between them and the person in front.

Like here, on the first clip shown.
[t]http://puu.sh/4NR3b.jpg[/t]
Little car cuts over, has [i]at least[/i] two car lengths between him and the flatbed in front of him. Yes, the flatbed is hitting his brakes, but the car has [i]plenty[/i] of room to slow down [i]safely[/i] once he's gotten over. But also note that the car is hitting his brakes [i]before[/i] he's completely gotten over. He's not even got a single tire over the line and he's braking. The entire time his taillights are in view of the camera, he is braking, so one can assume he continues once the taillights are out of the frame.
[editline]11th October 2013[/editline]
Second and third clip, both vehicles cut over without the room to do so, so them braking to not hit whatever's in front of them is going to be null and void. It's irrelevant to both of those cases. Fourth clip.

Again, multiple car lengths of room. The car that ends up getting hit is not turning, so he doesn't need to slow down to turn. If he [i]was[/i] turning, he should have made sure he had the room to slow down in front of the bus without getting hit by the bus. The car sitting and waiting to turn from the side street has stayed stopped the entire clip, so the car that gets hit does not need to be slowing down to make sure the car turning is not going to do something stupid.
That's not what I'm saying. I know they had room to slow down. However, it is more than likely to assume that they only sped up in the first place to get around the bus. so they were slowing down back to their normal speed.
They're all horrible drivers who can't comprehend that the bus also has to slow down. But there's no reason to claim that it's some insurance fraud scheme.

If they're cutting over in front of a vehicle, and [i]immediately[/i] slowing back down, they're either a) too stupid to own a driver's license, or b) trying to commit insurance fraud. And from what I've heard of Russia and their drivers, it's more often than not going to be B).
[QUOTE=simkas;42481709]He's not going to get someone killed by slightly bumping into other cars.[/QUOTE]
Uh did you miss the part where the big van cut in front of him and he almost tipped it on its side because he sped up to hit it
I mean yeah people are dicks for cutting him off but countering their recklessness with more recklessness is stupid and pointless; if they were trying to commit fraud then he has a dashboard cam to prove it, but the fact that the camera is there doesn't give him license to say "well they cut me off so it's okay that i rammed them"
Do any of you actually drive? He could have done way more to avoid collision, yes that's your responsibility as a driver and also not to purposefully rear end other cars. He gets away with it because he has a bus but it's still dangerous.
You praise the bus driver but no one is in the right here.
Oh well, only in russia.
The bus driver isn't at fault really, these pricks knew exactly what they were doing and that was to get some easy money
[editline]12th October 2013[/editline]
its not like afterwards when the car stops and they get out he rams them again, he stops when the other drivers know he means business
Lithuania's government just fucking runs over illegally parked cars in a [url=http://abcnews.go.com/GMA/video/lithuanian-mayor-crushes-cars-with-tank-14212169]fucking tank[/url]
lol woops the video doesnt work
That one van just drove straight into him, what was he thinking?
[QUOTE=SgtTupelo;42497598]That one van just drove straight into him, what was he thinking?[/QUOTE]
It's because the bus sped up, the guy in that car would have thought he was clear of the bus.
Too bad the driver is a dick as well.
Hey reevezy67, explain this one.
[video=youtube;1kznZqjIAPw]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1kznZqjIAPw[/video]
The bus is clearly going so slow that it can't stop fast enough, right...

That has nothing to do with the previous video.
What a nice guy though, he got straight up and handed the bus driver what I am assuming were his details.
[QUOTE=Explosions;42495150]When you pass someone, you speed up and then slow down after you pass them.[/QUOTE]
If you have to speed to pass a car, you have no legitimate reason to pass them in the first place.
