He cut all the way across, passed on the shoulder, zoomed on, did this multiple times again. A few seconds after the Mercedes, an S8 did the same thing, same driving on the shoulder, etc.
The GL was dragging a cone underneath.
They sure were lucky that they didnt hit bad gravel or skid out.
Ive seen a few folks who have slammed on brakes hard on the interstate in recent memory... Causing drivers to take evasive maneuvers.
Funny you mention black Mercedes, those and black BMW's seem to be the most frequent vehicles involved in accidents around here during good weather and rain. At least from the observations of myself, my wife, and several friends. It's always some kid in daddy's Benz or Beamer that manages to cause an accident and create a traffic jam at least half a dozen times a week, many fatal. It gets old real fast.
No offense Benz or Beamer drivers, but if you own one keep on eye on your kids if you allow them to drive it.
