Man 'driven' to create Instagram page documenting, recording reckless drivers in New Jersey

Updated 2 hours ago
RUTHERFORD, New Jersey (WABC) -- One man is taking a different kind of approach to the issue of safe driving.

Nick Goldsack spends no shortage of time documenting the good and bad of driving in the Garden State. He calls the project he created, "NJ Angry Driver."

Bad and aggressive driving drove Goldsack to record mindless and dangerous things people do behind the wheel of their cars.

Some drivers have trouble parking. Many seem unaware.

Goldsack started recording and posting his videos on social media in December and has already amassed over 41,000 followers.



Goldsack is a retired captain of the Hoboken Fire Department, so he's seen bad driving and tight turns in the city, but he says drivers have gotten a lot worse in the past few years.

He says it's hard to pinpoint the reason for the bad driving epidemic.

"It seems like anyone is getting a driver's license," he said.

If you're a bad driver, your actions could get caught on camera and posted to the site called NJ Angry Driver.

"Starting this has made me realize, 'you know what, I'm complaining about that guy over there, maybe I shouldn't do that either,' so it made me a better driver too, I'm not gonna lie to you," Goldsack said.
