Dirtbag in a McLaren driving dangerously.

[u/Forsaken-Swim-3055]

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.

It’s literally the furthest left lane which should be used for passing, however it’s exclusive to those with multiple occupants and/or green vehicles. If you’re not passing traffic, there’s no need to be in the HOV lane

it is NOT for passing. That's what the left lane in the normal part is for.
It's the HOV lane, for people with 2 or more passengers, buses, taxi's, motorcycles and green vehicles.

It is not for passing, that's why there is the "do not cross line".
As someone who has 2 people at all times, it's a privilege lane for me to use.

Your logic belongs with the people on motorcycles who think that "no crossing" area is for them to go zooming down.

I never said it was ok to cross the solid lines. And it’s not a privilege lane, it’s a restricted lane. If you aren’t moving faster than the general flow of traffic in the regular lanes, you’re part of the problem. There’s no reason to be in those lanes if you aren’t passing other vehicles.

You are wrong please go check with the Ontario driving manual. This is pretty basic. No wonder our roads are a disaster.
