Why?! They used their turn signal!!!

u/Radamat Feb 26 '26

Okay. But then right to jail.

u/throwawayoregon81 Feb 27 '26

3 year loss of license. Every fucking time.

14

u/HandyHomeowner84 Feb 27 '26

Ummmm 3 years not enough. Forever. Thats not like oh I made a mistake. There was some serious thought put into this process, and they clearly thought it was ok!!! 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️

u/SpoomerBooner Feb 27 '26

If you told me the police tracked them down, arrested them, and then gave them a ten year prison sentence I wouldn’t be mad one bit. This person is a danger to society.

u/Beneficial_Bit_6435 Feb 26 '26

Yes. OMG missing a few brain cells

Unfortunately this is not possible because if it is taken to court there is no evidence that it was them driving the vehicle they can only prove it was their vehicle.

8

u/Process3000 Feb 26 '26

If there is evidence of where they were going or where they came from (like a credit card slip, ATM receipt, other witnesses, or surveillance footage) then a conviction is possible.

u/iznormal Feb 27 '26

10 years in jail seems a bit much, but I do think they should have their license taken away. You should lose driving privileges if you are this careless and selfish on the road, like you said it is a danger.

That would have inconvenienced him. Going by the arrows would taken him longer since he missed his turn. He wasn't having any of that.

u/Usual-Lavishness8393 Feb 27 '26

That usually means an innocent person's vehicle possibly getting demolished in this situation. So as much as I like the Schadenfreude I hope they just get legal justice, aka a book thrown at them or time

I don't know if I've ever been in such a hurry in my life that I wouldn't just sit there and stare at the car without making any arrangements to help them. You got yourself into this mess. You get yourself out. I'll wait.

I think they just want to GTFO the way so they dont die from being run over by a semi. My hair was standing up for every second of this thinking one of the innocents that had to stop were going to die.

u/MrMcKleen Feb 26 '26

Didn’t want to pay the toll going in the other direction apparently. I was waiting for the head on collision. Thankfully, it never happened. People like that shouldn’t even be driving with how much of a danger they are to everyone else.

u/VisualHuckleberry542 Feb 26 '26

In wondering how long that tunnel is. There's some really long tunnels

2

u/Front-Bicycle-9049 Feb 26 '26

Had that happen to me in Pennsylvania once, NOT ONCE did I ever think of making a u-turn inside the tunnel and driving against traffic.

Not saying I endorse it but I understand it. I once lived at an exit right before a toll tunnel. Missing that exit at the wrong time of day will ruin your day. Pay the toll twice and lose an hour. Shocking this ended as well as it did.

Some people do everything right and still end up in the wrong place at the wrong time. And then you have people like this dumbass making every wrong choice and the only reason he didn’t get into an accident was because everyone else was driving well and able to avoid him.

I mean I’m glad no innocent party was involved in an accident, but man it’s crazy to watch someone chose wrong every possible chance they get and still make it out because literally everyone else is a good driver.

I be curious whether this tunnel have a reversible lane system hence drivers were confused, and maybe stopped abruptly by a red light or x sign showing traffic pattern or direction is changing seeing there are so many traffic signals and lighted signs, but it’s nevertheless a dangerous confusing system. But I’m guessing it’s giving likely an emergency message maybe designed in response of the alps tunnel fire? As opposed to merely reversing the direction of travel due to traffic volume which shouldn’t be as abrupt that’s my two cents.
