A heart-stopping dash cam video captured in Maine has been making rounds on social media. The video, which was shared by YouTube user the_wr3n on May 3, 2023, shows a Subaru driver attempting a risky drive on a two-lane highway. The chauffeur moves left to drive legally, but fails to pass, and an incoming truck appears on the horizon.
We took this video from the_wr3n YouTube Channel.
The footage reveals the Subaru chauffeur making a pass attempt from far behind on a corner. While the chauffeur lawfully moves left to pass, the oncoming truck looms ahead, and the car being passed hugs the right shoulder to provide more space. The Subaru barely squeezes through the gap between cars and earns a big blast of horn from the truck driver. The footage has since gone viral, with many viewers expressing shock and concern about the Subaru driver's dangerous maneuver.
Maine authorities have issued a warning to drivers about the dangers of reckless passing and the importance of staying alert behind the wheel. They have urged motorists to obey traffic rules and regulations to avoid accidents and other mishaps on the road.
The incident serves as a reminder of the potential consequences of making dangerous moves on the road. Drivers must exercise caution and good judgment when navigating through traffic to avoid putting themselves and others in harm's way. The dash cam video is a stark reminder that a single mistake on the road can have devastating consequences.
