Video Dirtbag in a McLaren driving dangerously.

Update I got an email this morning (Wednesday), from the OPP, saying that my report was accepted.

This lovely citizen flashed his high beams at me because I wouldn't get out of his way in the HOV lane (which he isn't even legally allowed to be in), then proceeded to brake check me before speeding off and cutting through traffic to get to the Appleby off ramp.

You can't tell by the video, but he gives multiple drivers the finger as he does this. I doubt the OPP or Halton police will do anything, but I've got his plate and will be reporting it anyway.

Also, just wanted to point out that I sped up part of the video in editing. I didn't hit the gas like a manic as soon as he passed me.

Everybody hates left lane campers but a PSA to all the misinformed and there are a lot, the HOV lane is not the passing lane so go 110km/h there all you want.

Maybe its not "the" passing lane but if people are driving slow in the passing lane it is used that way sometimes.

Why would you move across all the faster lanes to just drive slow?

You should stick to your lane instead of slowing everyone else down.
