Cutting In and Crashing – Is This Your Driving School Instructor? 93

Chapter 93: An American Pit?

The evening rush hour traffic was incredibly heavy. It’s the same old story; everyone’s rushing home to their wives, children, and warm beds – who has the time to mess with other people on the road?

Take Gu Yin, for example. He was busy having dinner with a policewoman; he certainly didn’t have time to get into a spat with that Mercedes.

But sometimes…

The more you give way, the more you accommodate them, the more they think you’re a pushover!

That Mercedes, perhaps thinking Gu Yin was a soft touch because he hadn’t reacted when the Mercedes brake-checked him earlier, continued to cut him off as Gu Yin tried to change lanes to avoid it…

Suddenly changing lanes without signaling, its red brake lights flashing conspicuously. To say it wasn’t intentional? Who the heck would believe that?!

[Report to the police!]

Many viewers watching “Reconciling with Life” couldn’t take it anymore, the barrage of comments flooding the screen:

[No need to watch further, it’s clearly malicious obstruction, the dashcam has recorded it all, just report it to the police!]

[Even if other traffic police ignore it, if they don’t deal with this, the local traffic police will face an investigation!]

[So arrogant! They tried to cut in and failed, we tolerated their insults, and now they dare to maliciously obstruct us?!]

…

The live stream chat went wild with anger.

This situation was truly sickening. It was different from the last incident; the Audi driver and his group in the parking lot were exploiting legal loopholes, but this Mercedes driver wasn’t even bothering with loopholes – he was outright breaking the law!

Malicious obstruction is a serious offense.

For minor offenses, without causing an accident or serious consequences, the penalty is a warning or a fine of 20 to 200 yuan.

For serious offenses, such as chasing or intercepting others, the penalty can be detention for five to ten days, and a fine of up to 500 yuan.

For even more egregious offenses, if it involves disturbing the public order, dangerous driving, causing a traffic accident, or endangering public safety by dangerous means, it can lead to criminal prosecution.

That’s not just detention or a fine anymore…

You’ll be doing hard time.

“What’s he doing?!”

In the passenger seat of the BYD Qin, the beautiful police officer Su Nuan couldn’t help but sit up straight, angrily glaring at the Mercedes ahead.

“He’s been given two chances, and he still dares to obstruct us. He’s treating the law like a joke!”

Indeed…

First, they had tried to cut in, then the insults; that was the first time.

Then the Mercedes swerved in front of them – the second time.

They had endured and given way both times, choosing not to retaliate.

Yet, the car in front escalated the situation!

It was utterly lawless!

“…”

Gu Yin remained silent, only looking helplessly at the car in front. The red brake lights illuminated his face in a crimson glow. He would never have put up with this if Su Nuan wasn’t beside him.

“…”

Su Nuan was silent for a moment, clearly aware of Gu Yin’s anger, but also mindful of her own position. After hesitating, she pulled out her phone from her white handbag, opened the camera, and snapped a picture of the Mercedes’ license plate.

“I’ve noted down his license plate number,” Su Nuan said formally to Gu Yin. “I’ll contact my colleagues in the traffic police department later and have them issue a penalty.”

As a police officer, this was all Su Nuan could do.

“Mm.”

Gu Yin nodded indifferently, saying nothing, appearing unfazed.

For both Gu Yin and the viewers watching the live stream, reporting the incident afterward, while it would make the driver pay, felt…

Unsatisfying!

This anger, they had swallowed it down.

Some things just make you angrier the more you think about them. If you don’t retaliate immediately, you’ll keep dwelling on it…

That’s even more painful.

But there was no choice…

He happened to be sitting next to a police officer. If anyone other than Su Nuan were in the passenger seat, that Mercedes wouldn’t have survived…

“Sigh…”

Thinking this, Gu Yin sighed quietly, glanced at the rearview mirror on the right, turned on his indicator, and began to steer to the right…

Officer Su had already said her piece; for him to resort to extreme measures now would be irrational.

Besides, if an average person reported this to the traffic police, they might not care, but with Su Nuan involved, that Mercedes was finished.

With that in mind, Gu Yin decided not to think too much about it, just treating the Mercedes like a piece of insignificant trash.

Su Nuan visibly relaxed…

She had been genuinely afraid Gu Yin would ram the car in front of her, because that would have been a disaster to explain.

Both Su Nuan and Gu Yin wanted this to be over…

But the problem was, some things don’t just end because you want them to.

The more you give way to some people, the more they push their luck!

You see?

Gu Yin was changing lanes, aiming to avoid the Mercedes based on the principle of “can’t fight, run away.”

But the Mercedes followed him, changing lanes!

And it changed lanes even faster than Gu Yin!

“Vroom!”

The Mercedes’ engine noise penetrated through the car windows. It cut in front of Gu Yin into the center-right lane, slammed on its brakes, and once again blocked Gu Yin’s path!

Gu Yin was fine, his speed wasn’t that high. At most, he’d just have to brake again.

But a car traveling in the right lane, going too fast, nearly rear-ended Gu Yin!

“Screech…”

A piercing sound of brakes filled the air, the tires of the white Volkswagen screeching against the asphalt. The car barely stopped, and then the driver rolled down the window and started yelling at the Mercedes in front:

“Stop your damn…”

Gu Yin would have accelerated after changing lanes, avoiding any impact on the car behind.

But because the Mercedes cut him off, Gu Yin had to brake, causing the car behind him to almost hit his car…

There were no traffic lights on this stretch of road. It was a speeding zone, several cars behind also had to brake hard, everyone was furious.

The Mercedes, however, was completely unconcerned; the man in the passenger seat even leaned out to make a rude face at Gu Yin.

[I’ll …]

The viewers of “Reconciling with Life” were furious.

Who had ever seen such an idiot?!

For the sake of his momentary pleasure, he almost caused a rear-end collision!

This wasn’t just disturbing the public order anymore, this was blatant disregard for human life!

Forget breaking the law…

He deserved to be shot!

This was a serious violation of traffic safety!

“Damn…”

Gu Yin’s patience had reached its limit.

The red taillights illuminated Gu Yin’s face, filled with anger and impatience.

“No…”

Su Nuan, the policewoman beside him, was also about to lose her temper. Police officers are human too; they get angry when faced with such situations.

The Mercedes driver was no longer just being a bully, he was deliberately causing trouble!

His actions could easily cause a large-scale traffic accident!

It was simply too much!

Even a clay figure has three points of fire (even the most patient person has limits). If they weren’t punished for their actions, once this incident got out online, it would negatively impact the local police…

Su Nuan decided not to tolerate it anymore. She pulled out her phone, in front of Gu Yin and the hundreds of thousands of viewers watching “Reconciling with Life”, and made a call.

The call connected, and Su Nuan said:

“Captain Xu, hi, are you at the station?”

“I’m out to dinner with a friend, and we encountered a case of malicious obstruction, very serious…”

“I’ve sent you the license plate number, I have video and photos.”

“Yes, it’s on ** West Road, you can access the surveillance footage, right? That’s good…”

“Okay, thank you.”

Listening to her…

The viewers were instantly excited.

[Got it, that car is in for a world of trouble.]

[Quickly execute the driver, that kind of person is a danger to society!]

[Traffic police, hurry up, I can’t wait!]

…

Everyone was looking forward to the arrival of the traffic police…

But for Gu Yin…

Things weren’t so easy.

While Su Nuan was on the phone, Gu Yin tried changing lanes again, but no matter which way he went, the Mercedes followed him, changing lanes and braking immediately, constantly cutting him off, endlessly!

He had even overtaken the Mercedes once, but the other car immediately accelerated and overtook him again, continuing to cut him off…

This was incredibly frustrating…

Let’s put it this way, if Gu Yin overtook the Mercedes, the Mercedes could overtake him again and continue to obstruct him, making overtaking extremely difficult;

But Gu Yin couldn’t obstruct the Mercedes after overtaking, the Mercedes could easily overtake him and continue to obstruct him.

It was infuriating!

“Why, of all times, did this have to happen when I’m with a police officer?” Gu Yin thought to himself, exasperated.

Before, he had easily dealt with the lane-cutters and high-beam drivers…

But this malicious obstruction was something he couldn’t easily handle.

Honestly, Gu Yin wanted to ask Su Nuan: “Sister, can I give him an American pit maneuver (a driving maneuver to force another car to stop) and stop him, consider it assisting the police, do you think that’s okay?”

But obviously, he couldn’t ask that…

No matter what, if he hit the car in front of Su Nuan, he wouldn’t be able to explain it.

Many viewers watching “Reconciling with Life” also couldn’t stand it anymore. They didn’t know how long they had to wait for the traffic police, and many viewers, feeling frustrated, closed the stream, causing a sharp drop in the number of viewers in Gu Yin’s live stream; tens of thousands of viewers left in a matter of minutes.

There was no other way…

People watched Gu Yin’s live stream to see him take action and feel the satisfaction.

They enjoyed watching him deal with lane cutters, high-beam drivers, and those who blocked parking exits.

But this time, because a beautiful police officer was with him, he couldn’t act as freely as he wanted. Although the viewers understood, they didn’t want to share his frustration, so they left…

In the passenger seat, Su Nuan seemed to understand Gu Yin’s frustration, and realized the situation couldn’t continue. The policewoman said directly:

“Pull over, let’s see if he still cuts you off!”

The red taillights illuminated Su Nuan’s mature and dignified face. The policewoman furrowed her brows, took her handbag, and found a hair tie, tying it around her jade-white wrist…

Gathering her black hair from her shoulders and chest, she neatly tied it up at the back of her head with the hair tie…

Although she wasn’t wearing her police uniform, this decisive and mature policewoman had a commanding presence.

Taking out a small black notebook from her bag, Su Nuan’s tone was calm, but her words exuded strength and conviction…

“If he dares to stop, I’ll go and see what’s going on.”

The black notebook was a leather-bound identification.

On it was an embossed police badge, and beneath it, several clear large characters: “People’s Police Officer’s Certificate”!

The document spoke for itself!

【Wow!!!】

When Su Nuan and her identification appeared in front of Gu Yin, the viewers in the “Reconciling with Life” live stream went wild!

【Suddenly, it feels so exciting!】

【I said it was so hot, it’s because things are heating up!】

【Nuan Team, you’re amazing! Nuan Team, I want to be your police dog ah ah ah!】

【Boruto: Naruto Next Generations: This is definitely more exciting than mine!】

…

Seeing the certificate, Gu Yin smiled. He thought that if the Mercedes dared to stop alongside him, things would get interesting…

They were about to witness the fastest “police response” ever!

Those two idiots in the Mercedes might actually do something like that.

“Okay.”

After agreeing, Gu Yin turned on his indicator, didn’t bother changing lanes, and pulled over.

Then…

A hilarious scene unfolded.

The Mercedes, obviously unwilling to let Gu Yin go, had followed him when he changed lanes, claiming it wanted to cut in. Now that Gu Yin had pulled over, it pulled over too…

When Gu Yin was in the far-right lane, he tried to turn left to get out of there. The Mercedes immediately turned left as well…

“Heh~”

Gu Yin found it almost comical.

Alright…

They gave the Mercedes every chance.

They were forced to pull over, and if the Mercedes had been sensible, it would have just driven away, and the whole thing could have been left to the arriving traffic police.

But even after Gu Yin pulled over, they still wouldn’t leave him alone…

This made things interesting.

Gu Yin wasn’t to blame anymore.

It’s still the same old saying…

You were given a chance, but you couldn’t seize it!

Ah!

You are useless!

“I’ll leave it to you, Sister?” Gu Yin wasn’t worried. After parking and putting the car in park, he turned to Su Nuan.

“Don’t worry.” With a “click,” the policewoman unbuckled her seatbelt, adjusted her white coat, and opened the car door to get out.

“I’ll come with you.” Although Su Nuan was a police officer, she was still a woman. There were two men in the Mercedes, and the driver was big and burly with tattoos. Gu Yin wasn’t comfortable letting Su Nuan go alone, so he got out of the car to go with her.

And also, to watch the show…

【Wow!!!】

The viewers watching the live stream were eagerly anticipating seeing those two in the Mercedes get dealt with by Su Nuan…

The number of viewers in the live stream was rapidly increasing!

At the same time…

Inside the Mercedes.

“Brother Shen, they seem to be getting out of the car…” The thin man in the passenger seat saw a man and a woman getting out of the BYD Qin in the rearview mirror, and felt a little worried. He said, “Should we just leave? It’s enough. We’ve already taught that kid a lesson.”

This guy had been cursing with the burly Mercedes driver, but now that he was actually confronting Gu Yin, he was getting cold feet…

Many people in real life are like keyboard warriors online – they’re tough behind a screen, but when it comes to a face-to-face confrontation, they back down.

The Mercedes driver, however, remained calm…

“Heh~”

Watching Gu Yin and Su Nuan get out of the car in the rearview mirror, a smirk played on the Mercedes driver’s fleshy face. There was no sign of panic.

He said:

“Two big guys like us, are we going to be intimidated by that kid and a girl?”

“I’ve been in a bad mood all day, that BYD driver with his beat-up car didn’t even give way to me, he’s asking for it…”

“If they dare to come looking for trouble, let them learn their lesson!”

The world seems filled with “discrimination”. In school, it was about uniforms and shoes. Later, it was about phones. Now, it’s about houses and cars.

The “discrimination chain” related to cars is particularly severe, for example, someone driving an 800,000 yuan Mercedes SUV would never look down upon someone driving a 79,800 yuan BYD.

Oh, no…

It’s not 79,800 yuan…

It’s 59,800 yuan!

BYD had a price reduction recently!

It is said that with government subsidies, the price can drop to under 40,000 yuan, even below 30,000 yuan!

What does that mean?!

Before, the best value car for 30,000 yuan was only the Wuling Mini!

Now, there’s also the BYD Qin!

This BYD is really something!

Ride-hailing drivers who bought a BYD Qin a year ago and earned some money over the past few months, went home to find the sky had fallen!

This car is all about being cheap and having value for money; but on the road, no one driving a nice car would want to be seen driving it…

Like this Mercedes driver, he probably thought Gu Yin should have given way to him.

In his arrogance, he didn’t realize the kind of shadow the people he was about to face would cast upon him.
