I did read a article that said this guy had been driving recklessly for awhile before this video was taken. She also stated she was trying to pass the two vehicles you see her pass right before he passes her. Not saying she couldn't have slowed and got over but this also wasn't the interstate and she was making a left where she pulled over and got out with her camera. This guy deserved what he got. He has been arrested before for the same thing along with other charges. She's just lucky he didn't have a gun.

Does keeping right apply still on non-limited access highways? I try to keep right regardless but in town I will move over plenty early if I have a left turn coming up to avoid being blocked out by a light or whatever. The guy in the truck deserved it.

To me it is not so much what either one of them did but the fact that the boy can't drive!!!! My 5 year old grandson can control a skid, I don't care what you drive you should know how to control it or not be behind the wheel. :jester:

He didnt brake check and spin out, you can hear the turbo spool up and then she pans the camera forward and he is already sideways. Looks to me like he freaked when the tires broke loose and instead of feathering the throttle and lettng it hang out for a second he got off it, stomped on the brakes, and over steered. Rookie mistake.

As for the passing lane aspect I have noticed there are people that purposely drive in that lane to intentionally slow people down or piss people off. That or they have a left turn 2 miles up and think they need to stay on the lane to make sure they can get over to turn. The road rage crap is ridiculous and needs to stop though. She is lucky he wasnt totally nuts and pulled a gun on her, hear about that crap all the time too.

No kidding...shoulda rode it out a little longer before over steering and slamming the brakes lol.

 

When in doubt throttle it out!!!

      Cold start Miss, oil in cylinder

      By newdude · Posted

      Its coolant disguised as oil.   TSB - 20-NA-166 1..3   "To inspect for this concern, add coolant dye to the system, run the engine through warm up, pressurize the cooling system after warming the engine to operating temperature (let the engine cool overnight) and inspect the suspect cylinder with a borescope for coolant dye evidence. At times it may be necessary to remove the head for inspection. If the head casting line is the concern, the intake port will be wet with a coolant oil mix"

      Cold start Miss, oil in cylinder

      Can you sample the pooled liquid, enough to confirm it is oil?   ...That its not fuel or coolant.   Also, make sure combustion gases aren't entering the cooling system.   Simply put, either oil being pushed up past the rings (this really isn't possible), oil leaking past the head gasket, oil leaking past the valve, oil entering through the intake air path. If none of this is likely - it may not be oil.   What could be likely is the fuel injector leaking down. A puddle of gas would still smoke and rough idle. (Same cylinder has the same problem after injector replacement?)   What is the crank time first thing in the morning, when the puddle would be present? Does it seem like the high pressure fuel pump needs an extra second or two to rebuild the pressure that injector 8 may have let bleed off? Check the fuel pressure via a scanner prior to starting the engine.

      Good information!  I didn't know about the dementia aspect and asked for a general for my second knee. I'd heard that recovery room time is usually shorter with a general.   The anesthesiologist talked me out of it and I had the spinal.  Inconvenience and/or discomfort is a small price to pay for reduced risk!

      This is for those over 70 years of age contemplating joint replacement surgery involving general anesthesia. Even some 55 yrs. ago when I took my pharmacology class the dangers of developing dementia in the elderly that had general anesthesia were beginning to be recognized. Over the years there has been some refinement in the cautionary warnings, avoid general anesthesia if possible if you've had close to 10 priors, especially over the age of 70 and/or a family history of dementia. I'm not including the twilight anesthesia induced by propofol often used in cytoscopies or colonscopies. Seriously think about seeing a neurologist and undergo cognitive testing before proceeding if any of those criteria apply to you. Spinal anesthesia may be an option in some cases. I'm in the above camp and although I could use a new right knee, I get fidgety according to a prior orthopedic surgeon when the bone saw spools up or maybe it was the smell of saw blade meeting bone, anyhow I may have one general anesthesia left in me which I will pocket for now and I'm choosing mind over mobility, anyway where did I leave my damn cane!
