My M340i Was Almost Destroyed By A Reckless Driver

I'm still amazed this guy didn't destroy my car and another behind me. Miracles do happen.
Still can't believe the stupidity.

Did the video catch the plate? Or too fast?

Too Fast. I don't have a plate reader on that side of the street. If he was going the direction my car was going then I would definitely catch it.

Welcome to New fucking York, where everyone drives like a fucking asshole. With this corona virus shit people even got more reckless. You have a responsibility to find this dude and beat his face in.

This is my business place. I unload on that side and park my car there majority of the time. As long as your not blocking pedestrians walkway, i never get a ticket or asked to move it. Been doing this over 10 years no problems.

The police department has been looking for it. I'm keeping an eye out as well.

Thank the driver behind you. Had they not noticed, all 3 cars would be in bad shape.

The Driver behind did not notice. The emergency braking system kicked in on the Honda. I believe if I went straight without her waiting for me to climb the sidewalk, she would have been hit directly in the side.
