Watch aggressive BMW driver harass learner, then dangerously overtake – viewers slam motorist’s ’typical’ Beamer driving
A SHOCKING video shows an aggressive BMW driver harassing a learner and then overtaking him on the wrong side of the road.
The learner driver clearly became more anxious after the impatient BMW motorist sounded his horn repeatedly at a roundabout.
The learner driver had only stopped at the junction for a few seconds before the BMW driver can be heard on the video blasting away at his horn.
Feeling under pressure to pull away quickly, the learner stalls the car which appears to infuriate the angry individual behind him even more.
As the learner moves away, taking the left-hand turn, the video shows the BMW speeding past in the opposite lane where seconds before a man and child had been crossing.
The video caption reads: ‘Aggressive driver – wait till the end. Hooting the horn doesn’t make the learner move off any faster.’
The driving instructor told the learner: “I don’t know why he’s sounding the horn to you.
“Don’t rush because of the idiot behind you. Check the left mirror and just kind of turn into it. Turn this way.
“I don’t know if he realises this, but pressing the horn isn’t gonna make you move off any faster.
“He has a kid on the passenger seat.”
The video uploaded by @clearviewdriving has gone viral on TikTok, with more than 350,000 views – and 1,381 comments.
Most users were on the learner’s side.
One said: “More often, it takes the learner long because it adds more pressure and stress to us, making us more likely to make a mistake.”
Another said: “Don’t get people who honk at the learner like they will be there for longer if he does that.”
A third pointed out: “I’m a learner, and I have been only beeped three times and two of those times was someone driving a BMW.”
This comes after a learner driver was smashed off the road by an impatient Mercedes motorist.
Plus, a driving instructor has blasted road rage drivers, saying they’re making her learners quit because the abuse is so cruel.
