This road rager was reportedly flailing and screaming as her car spun out of control.
Presumed North Carolina resident and Redditor /u/NunyaBRZ posted dashcam footage taken earlier this week (Feb 13, 2024) from Greensboro, NC showing the embarrassing moment a road raging lady in a silver Lexus lost control and drove into an embankment at the entrance to I-40.
Check out this road rager’s case of instant justice below.
[OC] Road raging silver Lexus wipes out. She honked just as the light turned green and was flailing/screaming in her car. Luckily she missed the pole.

As mentioned, the wipe out and near accident happened in Greensboro at the I-40 entrance near the intersection with W Wendover Ave (exact location on Google Maps linked here.)
In the video we can see two turning lanes of cars, OP included, ready to turn into the on ramp for I-40.
Reportedly, the driver in the silver Lexus next to OP was already having herself a bit of a road rage meltdown, which explains why OP left a large enough gap for her to slot into
“Lady was honking and screaming. No point in escalating over 0.5 seconds. Letting people go is often the right choice, pride, and ego don’t mean much in a grave.”
Upset that the Nissan Altima in front of her was not going fast enough, she signals left and attempt to overtake.
Pointed out by OP, with a spare tire on her back right and insufficient grip on damp roads, she loses control.
“Spare tire on back right…,” OP clarified.
She tries to steer out of it but, with no front grip, it’s useless.
Her Lexus careens into the grass embankment to her left and, thankfully, she comes to a stop, narrowly missing a light pole.
“There is a reason why you don’t put the spare on the axel that has the torque. Bring a functional one from the front to the back (if you have RWD) and put the spare to front,” /u/Good_engineering_574 astutely points out.
“Looks like she already had some front end damage, so now she can have some suspension and wheel/axle damage to go with it. Dumba**,” /u/Mazarin221B adds.
“Got to love an idiot who only harms themselves,” /u/Denali338 replied.
For the road ragers, this is one small reason why it’s not worth it, whatever you’re road raging over, you increase the chances of getting into an accident that affects you and might affect others, compounding your troubles.
For level level-headedheaded drivers, it’s best to steer clear of road ragers as they can easily drag you into their inevitable accident with their rash decisions.
