Humvee driving in Iraq

And the US government expects to be 'winning the hearts and minds' of Iraqis while US soldiers are running people off the road. :yuck:

 

They are supposed to be the drivers I guess. But maybe they do have a good reason to rush. Maybe they are driving a pregnant mother to the hospital ! :uhh:

 

Uh oh, this has been debunked. It is actually video taken in S Central L.A.

 

:rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

 

I dont blame them one bit. Id smash the hell outa every car in my way. They are beeping, are the people deaf?

 

There sure are a lot of jaywalkers in Bagdad!

It has to be a tough situation...how do they know if someone is just driving slow or if they're purposely trying to obstruct the road to slow them down and make them a target?

Though, are you sure they're American? At the end, they're speaking English, but it doesn't sound like any accent I've ever heard in the US. About 3/4 of the way through the clip, they say something else that I can't even understand the accent sounds so thick. Can anyone else place the accent?

 

How else can you free people?

 

Sound like normal American to me.

You assume that everyone is trying to obstruct you and drive exactly how they are driving.


:rofl: No one even cares. The people on the side walk are about to get run over and dont even flinch....classic 3rd world driving.


AHAHAHH I just say the beginning of office space when hes stuck in traffic. Ah, the irony.

 

The reaction of the drivers and pedestrians to just take their time in spite of them playing bumper cars suggests this is pretty commonplace there.

 

You think that was inappropriate use of a military vehicle?

Here's what you get for stealing wood

 

I think I'd rather get bumped aside by a Humvee than have one sitting next to me in traffic. The odds of having someone take a shot at them at any given time might be fairly small, but there's a set upper limit to the damage getting bumped can do, as opposed to being next to a Humvee at the wrong time.

 

This whole war disgusts me

 

Whats staged the humvee clip? Im pretty sure they actually do drive like that. They are not going to sit around so someone can shoot RPG's at their humvee.

I think the driver was being really nice. I would move them much harder if I were behind the wheel.
