A bizarre video from 2021 is going viral on Twitter. The driver of a red pick-up truck smashed another car off Interstate 35 in Edmond, Oklahoma, but only got a ticket for an “improper lane change.”
The victim of the crash, Brett Powers, described the unhinged attack to KWTV:
This guy just lost his mind and targeted us. We were like, do we try to get off or is this guy going to follow us and shoot us? We were like, let’s just pretend like it’s not happening, just ignore that this guy is acting like a fool over here.
Powers said the suspect was ticketed by Oklahoma Highway Patrol and released:
He could’ve killed us in our car. He could’ve killed the people when he came flying across two lanes. He could’ve killed his son. And he’s getting off with a speeding ticket and an improper lane exchange.
Yvette Weber, whose husband KWTV photojournalist Mike Weber filmed the crash, said the road rager had a boy with him:
The driver of the red truck opens his back door, there was a little boy sitting in the backseat of his truck. I could not believe that driver would act like that for one, and then to have a small child in the backseat. I just can’t imagine what that little boy is going through in the backseat.
