Caught On Tape: What Happens When A California Driver Finally Snaps

Tyler Durden's picture




 

In the idyllic foothills of the Sierras amid the forested beauty of Tahoe National Forest, it appears the California drought finally got to Deirdre Orozco. As the following crazy clip shows, the 50-year-old Santa Clara woman went full Mad Max on two young female drivers after they reportedly made "a rude gesture" to Orozco after she had been tailgating. The dramatic cellphone video of the event has ended with Orozco being charged with two counts of assault with a deadly weapon, two counts of false imprisonment, unlawful use of a badge, reckless driving and resisting arrest. Happy Holidays America.

 


As AP reports,

A Northern California woman made her first court appearance Tuesday after a road rage incident was captured in a dramatic cellphone video that showed a vehicle forcing a car off a mountain highway.

 

Two women frantically called the California Highway Patrol on Saturday afternoon to report that they were being repeatedly cut off by the driver of a Ford Explorer Sport Trac pickup truck on Interstate 80, about 60 miles northeast of Sacramento.

 

"She just hit our car, she just hit our car. She's pushing us off of the road. Yes, she's pushing us off the road. She's coming for us," passenger Delanie Strykul tells a CHP dispatcher on the video, her voice shaking. "Please help us."

 

The video shows the Explorer forcing their Mazda onto the shoulder as the Mazda's driver screams.

 

"I could not believe this was real. I was sitting there going, 'This has to be a joke,'" Strykul told The Associated Press on Tuesday.

 

...

 

The suspect, Deirdre Orozco, 50, of Santa Clara, was charged with two counts of assault with a deadly weapon, two counts of false imprisonment, unlawful use of a badge, reckless driving and resisting arrest.

 


 

She was held in lieu of $250,000 bail and was due back in court Friday after pleading not guilty to multiple charges from two incidents days apart.

Happy Holidays America, and don't forget to BTFATH.

I feel for Tahoe locals who are folked by Bay Areans. One of my good homies, born and raised in Tahoe, told me about the word GAPER (Guaranteed Accident Prone on Every Run, for everyone else). I believe it's a title extended to all annoying tourists, and not just skiers.

the SanJo metro area gets douchier and douchier by the year. one day soon it will be as bad as LA.

still, the further you travel away from the coast, the more country everything (and everyone) gets. and with country folk comes country justice of a perceived wrong, which is to say, face-to-face violence.

Welcome to the culture that is small-town California. The Mother Lode region has some epic crazies. Besides she's probably pissed because people are still talking about a drought when last week she (and I) spent all day looking for sandbags to stop the floods but there was no sand left, anywhere. I've got a bucket in my side yard with a normal year's worth of precipitation in it from the last month alone so stop with the rain dances for a bit please.

I looked up an expanded version of the story. Tyler left out a few juicy parts.

“I definitely regret flipping her off,” said Strykul, a 2012 Miss California candidate. “I’m not proud of that.”

The dispatcher eventually instructed the two women to exit at Dutch Flat, where an awaiting officer at a service station  (donut shop?) came to their aid. Orozco followed them into the gas station, where CHP officers initiated an enforcement stop.

The Explorer driver, later identified as Orozco, continued to a relative’s house in Roseville, and allegedly threw large rocks through a front window while threatening the residents with bodily harm. The family called police.

Thought Experiment...

If people are dangerous animals, what is the logic behind allowing some of those animals to possess guns, grant them the monopoly priviledge to initiate force within a geographic region, and give them the right order everybody else around? What is the logic behind allowing all the other animals to chose their masters via the ballot box?

Some animals are more equal than others.

Had the same thoughts.

I am also wondering why no one recognizes that the video begins after something obviously already had happened? Does nobody want to know what happened before, before making conclusions?

Who is driving with a car with such a huge split in the window?

And how fucking disgusting dirty the trousers are.

And last but not least: stopping at a police car but not opening the window? Also a very strange behaviour.

My gut feeling tells me that something is not as it seems and we only have heard one half of the story.

Anybody worth shooting once is worth shooting twice.

 

Aside from cliche sayings, you should remember that unless central nervous system damage is great enough to make it impossible for a person to carry on, even a shot to the heart does not guarantee that you are instantly out of danger.  A person can carry on for 5-15 seconds if the damage is localized to the heart.  OTOH, if you carry something big enough, a shot to the heart can blow out blood vessels in the brain, causing that central nervous system damage.  The smallest thing that you might expect this to happen from is going to be a 357SIG or a 357mag.  Sorry, 45ACP fans. You are relegated to using penetration as your measure of effectiveness, not ballistic pressure waves.

Seriously, civilization has understood the need to control kids until they reach some age of responsibility, but on the other hand, it wasn't all that unusual to see teens with guns in the back window of their pickup when I was in school.....or was that a buckboard wagon...I forget.

Ultimately we have a choice in this world. We can embrace the risks, educate our children to understand and respect them. Or we can cram ourselves inside a bubble of government legal structures to attempt to protect us, and just hope and pray that they are not inept, indifferent or down right evil.

I would prefer to take my chances with clarity of risk and the responsibility for my security in my own hands.

Our part of Oakland was undergoing "multi-culturalizatiion"; and after t he first rape attempt by a zpear chucker he ordered her to carry, every day. He was reserve Capt. in the Sherrif's Dept. and we did as we were told.

Government needs you to pay taxes's picture

This x1000.  .Gov isn't capable of writing law that will end violent crime, and their stormtroopers aren't capable of protecting you from violent crime.  Furthermore, the more extensive and intrusive .gov becomes, the more likley they are to abuse their power.

The logical conclusion is to educate and train yourself and your family in the proper use of firearms, including how to handle them to minimize risk.

I saw one woman blustering up at two women. They should have got out of the car and had a catfight, kept the video rolling and tear at each others clothes and stuff.

No boolits needed.

It’s really interesting to note how, after the “Valley Girl” fad the HRT just wormed its way into the wider vernacular.

Once you are tuned into it, it is amazing to see how many highly educated and/or public personalities express declarative sentences with the intonation of questions.

It seems to me that this practice suggests a lack of confidence in the veracity of the statement or is an unconsciously implied request for acknowledgement, approval or agreement.

When seconds count, a cop is 5 exits down the interstate sitting at a Union 76 drinking coffee and running a speed trap.

 

If this had been in SC, GA, FL, TX - it would have been called target practice.

“She said she had been trying to get arrested, she’s been driving 100 miles an hour the whole way from San Jose. What can I do to get arrested… she said, ‘what can I do to get arrested?'” Larsson told us Monday evening.

She should have tried blackface.

Yes, if she had wanted to get shot, she would need to drive blackface in a black neighborhood. She wasn't in the right neighborhood.

Just a few weeks ago, 100 yards or so from where I sit here in CA, a guy got cut off pulling out of a gas station, he backed up to the pumps to have a word with the 18-year old who cut him off, and the kid put a bullet in his head.  Guy is dead, kid looking at most or all of life in prison.  All caught on surveillance video.
