Road rage: Tense standoff on narrow Melbourne street
Driving down a narrow suburban road can be difficult at the best of times, let alone when there’s another car travelling in the other direction. And when neither driver seems to realise who has right of way, it can quickly turn into a hairy situation.
Today’s video from Dash Cam Owners Australia details one such standoff on a narrow road in Toorak, with neither driver willing to give an inch and let the other pass.
The man in the car blows up, before the woman in the other vehicle exits.
“You’re holding up the whole road,” he says.
“You are a bully and a nasty typical man. I have the right of way,” she replies.
“I came in the street first so you give way to me.”.
Followers of the popular Facebook page have been quick to weigh in on the issue.
“He sped up when he saw the other car coming, he had plenty of room to move over and allow the other car past,” wrote one.
“I can’t see anywhere he could have pulled into she had a big gap and should have pulled into it. There were cars either side of him for ages,” added another.
What do you think? Which motorist is in the wrong?
