An Uber driver in Sacramento, California, feared for his life on January 19 when an unruly passenger continually attempted to grab his steering wheel while they were driving on Highway 99.
Driver Albert Castro captured the ordeal on his car’s dashcam, and shared the footage to his Facebook page, writing that he “almost died.”
The video shows the man, who appears to be intoxicated, touching Castro’s hand before trying to take the wheel. Castro restrains the passenger with one arm, while trying to safely slow down on the eight-lane freeway.
The man can be heard exclaiming “I love you brother” as he lunges for the steering wheel. According to Castro, the passenger was later arrested and blew a .19 on a breathalyzer test – over twice the drink-drive limit.
Nobody was hurt during the incident.
