Nobody likes a sorry Susan on the freeway, so this Autobahn driver reminded an Audi guy the price of being insufferably dangerous on the roads: €600 to be precise.

  • Living in Southern California, you learn to tolerate your fair share of road rage—I know I certainly have! Flashing brights, furious blinkers, and occasional (yet classic) outraged hand gestures, many of us daydream about the swift hand of Karma coming down to crush our enemies on the road. While I never wish harm on a bad driver, because ultimately they're endangering everybody else on the road, perhaps a nail could find their tire or perhaps a police radar system. Well, apparently dreams do come true! Because this road-raging lunatic was met with an uno reverse card that led to his ultimate demise—an expensive ticket and a few points docked off of his good driving record. 

    Serves him right!

    I live in Germany and was driving on the autobahn in a section that had no speed limit, but was only 2 lanes. A semi-truck was passing another semi- truck on an uphill, so it was taking a while. I drove patiently behind the

  • Unfortunately for him we had entered a 120 km/h zone and I saw the telltale flash of a speed camera. He slowed down, and then ended up exiting at the next rest stop, presumably to cool down. I'd like to think he learned his lesson and won't drive like that in the future, but I doubt it

  • Karma is best when it's served quickly! Especially when we get to watch the downfall of our enemies in real-time. Nothing quite beats that feeling of superiority… 

  • R2face Love the turnabout. I hate drivers like that, and I truly hope he got a nice expensive reminder not to drive like an a. Out of curiosity, how much does a speeding ticket there usually cost?

  • InformationTop3437 Depends on the speed. If you exceed the limit by 70 or more km/h, you can get 600 euros fine and they give you 2 points too. Also they take your driving licence for 90 days. If you add up to 8 points or 9, you are banned from driving again.

  • msdesignfoto Great. I also flash the ones flashing me, under similar circunstances - like when they want to pass me but I already have someone ahead of me, or when I have a straight line on my right and can't change lane.

  • noeljb Other than not seeing a speed limit sign is there another way to tell when you have transitioned from a no speed limit zone to one that has a speed limit, and vise-a- versa
