Reckless I-264 driver attempted to flee after clipping a car, swerving in and out of traffic at high speeds.

Virginia Beach Expressway commuter and Redditor /u/JMan42023 shared headshaking dashcam footage from earlier this week (Oct 21,2025) to the /r/IdiotsInCars subreddit showing this absolute idiot of a driver swerving in and out of traffic at high speeds, only to hit another car, damaging his own ride enough to where he was forced to stop, despite wanting to flee.

Check out the shocking dashcam below with the original Reddit thread linked here.

The incident happened on I-264 (Virginia Beach Expressway) just before Exit 16 onto Witchduck Rd. (Exact location on Google Maps linked here.)

As the video shows, OP is driving in Lane #2 of the Virginia Beach Expressway.

OP is passing slower traffic, which, under normal driving circumstances, would be business as usual, except that fast approaching behind them is a driver in an Infiniti G37.

Aimed at the increasingly smaller gap between OP’s car and a Buick LaCrosse to the right, the Infiniti driver attempts to thread the needle, but fails.

His left front tire clips the rear right tire of the Buick, severely damaging the Buick and his car, too.

A piece of a damaged car part from the collision comes flying off the freeway and onto OP’s car, hitting his windshield.

OP later confirms it was a piece of alloy wheel from the Buick.

The driver in the Infiniti appears to try to hit-and-run, not coming to a stop, but eventually does, forced to by his car being too damaged to continue.

“This guy was trying his hardest to leave, but his car just couldn’t. Honestly, the main reason why I didn’t immediately pull over to the side of the road. I was seeing what this dip s*** was trying to do,” OP clarified in the comments.

“I was definitely going faster than traffic, like 71 mph. They must have been going at least 90-100mph when they clipped that car. I feel so bad for the car that was hit; they definitely got whiplash.”

In Virginia, reckless driving is classified as a Class 1 misdemeanor, carrying potential penalties of up to 12 months in jail, a fine of up to $2,500, and a driver’s license suspension of up to six months. Additionally, a conviction results in six demerit points on the driver’s DMV record, which remain for 11 years (Northern Virginia Criminal Defense Group).
