Both times on the same stretch of I-35, this Dodge Charger driver was on the wrong side of an exit.
I-35 commuter and Redditor /u/topprock shared head shaking dashcam footage from Carrollton and Lewisville, TX from earlier in the week (Mar 27, 2025) to the /r/IdiotsInCars subreddit showing a careless Dodge Charger driver, in two separate occasions within an hour, slip past OP in a gore point, narrowly avoiding a collision both times.
Check out his dashcam footage below with the original Reddit thread linked here.
Both incidents happened on I-35 within an hour, once in Carrollton at an off-ramp (exact location linked here) and again in Lewisville (Exact location also linked here.)
As the first dashcam footage shows, OP is driving on I35N on the PGB Turnpike when he exits onto 35E towards Denton.
Suddenly, a driver in a yellow Dodge Charger with license plate WCZ 7321 squeezes past OP, coming within one or two feet of the traffic attenuator barrier at the end of the gore point.
The driver has the gall to flip OP off, visible in the dashcam video.
Then, within less than an hour, OP is on I-35 again when he sees the SAME Charger in the exit offramp towards Exit 445 and realizes he’s in the wrong lane. Instead of re-routing, the Charger tries the same move, squeezing past OP back onto I-25, coming dangerously close to his car and the traffic barrier.
“I was looking at him, and he never looked at me,” the caption on the video reads. “Saw him realize he needed to get over, and he then floored it.
Thankfully, the guy managed not to hit OP’s car.
“I never felt anything when it happened, but when I watched the video back, I had to go look at my car (no damage!),” OP confirmed.
“How did he get on the wrong side of the exit twice? SMH,” the top comment from /u/GuitarLute reads.
“A complete sack of s***. Sadly, that is how most charger/challenger drivers are. Fun fact: If you call your insurance and give them his plate number, they can find his info and give you his insurance info to send them that video,” /u/JWines13 suggested.
According to RomClaw.com,
“In Texas, both reckless driving and careless driving can lead to legal consequences, including fines, license points, and potential increases in insurance premiums. However, reckless driving carries more severe penalties, including the possibility of imprisonment.”
