PUBLISHED: | UPDATED:

I think we can all admit to tailgating someone at one point or another, unless you consider yourself God’s gift to safe driving. It’s safe to say all of us have come across a particularly slow driver, whether we’re in a rush or not the best of moods. Those who have been the unfortunate victim of a fender bender especially know that it’s not worth it.

Well in today’s video, a tailgater learns this lesson the hard way. I’m not sure what would possess someone to drive that fast and close behind a smoking vehicle, but it earns him a spot amongst our dummy drivers. Most people tend to slow down when they can’t see the road in front of them. After your car has been repaired, sir, I’d recommend trying it, along with not following so closely behind others.
