Shocking dashcam video shows Honda Accord spin out, flip over in NJ road rage incident
In a viral dashcam video, two cars- Honda Accord and Ford F-150 Raptor- are seen jostling for position on a highway until one loses control and runs into a mountainside wall, crashes and flips. The driver of the Honda Accord miraculously came out unscathed from the mangled heap of metal. Dashcam footage was initially shared on YouTube in late January, with the video now making the multinational motor company Honda trend on Twitter.
The incident began when a Honda Accord aggressively attempted to overtake a Ford F-150 Raptor that repeatedly blocked the car on the Palisades Parkway in New Jersey. Eventually, the Honda Accord driver squeezed between two other vehicles on the right, steering at the same speed on the two-lane highway. The Raptor then slows down as the Accord driver is getting all riled up. The Accord then drives around the Raptor as well as the vehicle in the right lane to use the shoulder of the highway to get over. The vehicle then hits a pickup truck before losing control and crashing into the cliffside. Speaking about car crashes, Arnold Schwarzenegger was in one recently, where the driver of the other car required some medical attention. Eric Popper, a Florida man was caught recently firing his gun at another driver in his own dashcam footage in a case of road rage on an interstate highway.

This viral footage was recorded and posted by a motorist on his channel Racerwong.Shooterwong on YouTube, who confirmed that the Accord driver was “okay” but it is unclear at the moment if either of the drivers involved will be charged.
"This Accord nearly sideswipes me, then decides to play chicken with the Raptor almost hitting him,' the driver wrote in the video description. "I guess that p*sses the Raptor off and that’s when video starts."
In another incident of road rage from Florida, things could have turned fatal easily as the driver, Eric Popper chose to fire gunshots at the other driver. The video of the incident was taken from the 30-year-old's own dashcam. Popper was arrested a month later for the June 2021 incident, where he fired over a dozen shots at the passing driver. This incident happened on I-95 in Miami and is going viral on social media now.
