This is my dash cam. I passed another truck that was going approx 5mph slower than me, who decided to speed up when I was almost past him. not my fault it took me a single minute (literally, only a minute) to pass him. this car apparently was mad he had to wait for me. and no, i didnt cut him off, he was a ways back when I got over to pass. This was in cedar rapids, IA. West bound hwy 30. right by the exit for Edgewood Rd.
West handled the situation with professionalism and class, safely avoiding an accident and refusing to retaliate. After contacting police, she was told that the dash cam video was not enough evidence to press charges.
“Officer called me back, vehicle registration does not match driver description. Driver was male possibly in his early 50s. Can’t do anything unless they witness it even though I have video proof and saw the guy. I am currently working on contacting the city attorney. Cop doesn’t think any charges will be filed due to this,” she wrote.
