You need some Reddit in your life.. He has a rear cam. (See further context in the comments of the reddit thread.) There's additional video of the cut-off in there I think.. or atleast part of it.

Hello All,

We just had a customer contact us tonight because their truck got keyed in SE Calgary (Auburn Bay - Save on Foods Parking Lot).

Please watch the video for all the evidence as he had one of our dual channel dash cameras installed.

We have a clear photo on the person, and a partial plate number. This happened on Nov 8th 2015.

If you know this person, please send us an email. Thanks.

Ohhhh, my bad. I should have watched the video to the very end.

The plate number looks like HWIROLL (How I roll?). It is fitting for a truck license plate.

Pretty sure it's EWIROLL. I've seen this exact vehicle before and always thought the license plate is weird.


I'll echo that why even honk and start shit with the left lane bandit? You can clearly pass him and keep on moving.

The next upcoming on/off ramp location is shitty since it's a 2 lane merge on from Barlow as well as a 2 lane exit onto 130th. It's also a slight bend in the road and a hill on Deerfoot...lots of people slow down right here. It is annoying as people in this city have a very hard time keeping a steady speed, and throw a hill and curve in and it's a constant struggle to maintain any form of "pace", but keep your cool for all of 25 seconds and move on in life.

These are the videos he sent to me. All I was doing was trying to help catch the vandal.

Oh well live and learn....

We don't know if the vandalizer cut-off the victim first, thus provoking him to then go into the right lane, pass (honk) and then aggressively cut-back over in-front of the truck. I mean, he could be ticketed for an illegally passing on the right, perhaps careless driving? I think the cost of those tickets is still cheaper than the cost it'll be to potentially have to re-paint the entire side of the car (depending how deep that keying is)....

They're both in the wrong, but I mean - we've all been stuck behind someone doing less than the limit in the left lane as we drive by signs on Deerfoot stating "slower traffic keep right".. So he cut him off .. Certainly not a good thing to do, but I see it happen everyday. Following the guy, waiting for him, putting on an act (on the phone, pretending to walk into the store) to seek vengeance by physically damaging another vehicle ... that dude should pay for his damage.

It was a poor choice to cut him off - but it's far worse to go and damage someones property.

Imagine if it was your home.. You don't cut your grass for a 2 months - you're breaching a bylaw. Your neighbor tells you to cut it - you don't. He becomes annoyed, makes the poor choice to light your lawn on fire and burn it all down LOL Does the home-owner deserve that because he was in wrong first?

You can't be ticketed for passing on the right in this province. How do people not know this?

Because you're wrong? (not in this circumstance, but you can still be ticketed in others)

Overtaking and passing on the right
22(1) A person driving a vehicle may drive the vehicle so as to
overtake and pass on the right of another vehicle
(a) when the vehicle being overtaken is making a left turn or
the person driving the overtaken vehicle has signalled that
person’s intention to make a left turn.

(b) in the case of a one-way highway, where the roadway
(i) is of sufficient width for 2 or more lines of moving
vehicles, and
(ii) is free from obstructions

While I do not condone vandalizing someones vehicle, your buddy is the one who provoked the altercation.

As mentioned I would like to see the rear camera footage before passing judgement.

If the key mark was not severe and down to metal, it will likely be cheaper for him to just have it buffed out. If this video is shown to the police he will likely be ticketed as well for dangerous driving, and rightfully so.

This is a live and learn moment, next time someone pisses him off in traffic, take a deep breath and carry on with your day.

Nice ninja edit...

I'm not wrong at all.


(2) Where a highway has 2 or more traffic lanes on the same side
of the centre line for vehicles travelling in the same direction, a
person driving a vehicle that is
(a) overtaking another vehicle travelling in the same direction
may pass on the right or left of the other vehicle if there is
a traffic lane available for passing to the right or the left of
the traffic lane being used by the vehicle being overtaken,
or
(b) being overtaken by another vehicle travelling in the same
direction shall keep the vehicle being overtaken in the
traffic lane in which that person is driving so as to allow
the overtaking vehicle free passage in the traffic lane to
the right or the left of the traffic lane in which the vehicle
being overtaken is travelling.

good advice

next time guy instead of keying truck, will run you off road or pull a gun

why doesn't the truck driver with video take the video to the police who could proceed legally, and search license plate. is he a tough guy and will fix this himself? we see how his tough guy traffic police actions got him his truck keyed. he should be careful to not get killed. lots of crazy people out there

Honestly, sometimes people forget they are in the Left lane, and say "honking" or tailing for a bit is "enough" of a reminder...

The old man was obviously stubborn, and yes vindictive enough to key your buddy's truck... at least he didn't pull out a tire iron and cave in your buddy's face.

if someone did what your buddy did to "me", and honestly what appears to be out of nowhere... I would probably Rage out and there would've been alot more damage than just keying his truck

Yep, I've had this realization myself a few years ago when I realized that I was 'attracting' the assholes myself.

When I stopped caring about the 2 second delays and realizing it wasn't worth it, shocker, the a-holes seemed to go away.

Everyone learns this eventually and at their own pace.

[JRSC00LUDE]

"See you in court asshole" lol, as you know your buddy is a chump. Vandalism (which he can't prove in any way at all) is weak as fuck but when you're a hothead you end up getting what you deserve eventually, although usually it's a punch in the mouth....

The verdict is in, they both suck.

And some morons are just so clueless they forget they are driving altogether and should be removed from the road.

Had one lady keep getting slower and slower in the left lane. Tried the high beam blip, fogs and then finally hit the LED bars in through her back window. No way for me or the other people lined up behind her to get over to the right because of the speed differential between 50kph and 100kph. She finally went onto the left shoulder, but its very obvious she had no business being on Deerfoot (or probably any other road).
