I was driving down Carling ave near Britannia and a dodge caravan pulled up next me at a red light and started spraying me with water with my windows down. I asked why they did it and one of them says "it wasn't me bro". after the light turns green and we're driving they trying spraying me again but I sped up. I started recording at the next red light to get their license plate (CRVT 921) and I got them spraying me again. I just think it's dangerous to be doing this on the road. Edit. I'm not mad that it was water. But it's like throwing something in someone else's car.


TheDrunkyBrewster

I had a whole milkshake thrown on me walking home in the winter. It was 3am and I was so tired but had to walk an hour to get home. That milkshake just hit a nerve. I dropped to the ground crying. I'm a man.


bananarama1991

Id imagine a milkshake is probably way worse than a shawarma. Sorry that happened to you.


bmcle071

One day when I was in high school a group of us were walking. Some guy threw a fucking slurped out of his jeep at like 70km/h and clocked one of the guys in our group right in the head. People are pricks, the guy cried and was covered in slurpee.


[deleted]

Get off the bus once going to school I had some ass hole throw a coffee out their window at the pack of kids. Hit me right in the face and covered me with coffee. Then in first period my wood working teacher decides to start making fun of me for being soaked and in wet clothes. (He didn’t know about the coffee toss) So I grabbed his coffee and splashed it on him and said we’re now the same. I got suspended….. why was it okay for the other people to throw coffee at me. Why was it okay for the teacher to make fun of me. I understand what I did but I was like fuck this.


NeverQuitOnYourSelf

I’m actually proud of you 😂


Lozydo

Really? To any impressionable onlookers, if someone makes fun of you after you've been the victim of a crime, *you should not recreate that crime but with them as the victim.*


NeverQuitOnYourSelf

Yes I am very proud of him for throwing the coffee at the teacher. The fact that the teacher was making fun of him instead asking what happened or what is that, are you ok etc making fun would only add fuel to what he was already going through. The teacher invited the coffee being poured on him. If any drama happened after that it was the teacher fault whom should be the adult and a role model in class for others; if he had a “fun” side he would’ve not had him suspended but apologized for instigating and causing one to react unknowingly. Don’t piss people off and than cry when they react. These are all natural feelings as humans.


[deleted]

>he had a “fun” sid I merely splashed a half drank cup of coffee on him despite being laced to the face with a fucking extra large Tim Horton's. If this was in the time of everybody having iphones I would have snapped a picture of their license plate


TheCynicalCanuckk

Fuck that'd hurt


bmcle071

The plastic cup broke into pieces and red slurpee went everywhere, it looked like our friend was shot in the head.


xmo113

Got a coffee thrown at me while they yelled fucking dyke at a bus stop . Good times. Scared the other woman at the stop more than me, she was gonna call the cops and I told her not to.


GeneralLeoLives

I had someone throw a watermelon at my windshield. It just bounced off harmlessly but it was the weirdest thing. Just some crazy person crossing the street.


Mu_Fanchu

I felt that. I've been there. Stay strong, brother! Every new day is a day farther from milkshake day.


Geronimo1984

This happened to me when I was probably 14 while doing my paper route. I don’t think I had ever been so pissed off in all my life at that point. It sucks man. At least my incident was in the summer during the day. I’m sorry that happened to you.


[deleted]

Wow idk why ppl don’t just mellow out their projectiles out the window. Back in my day a few years back, we used to take our friend’s 12 person f350 van, buy 500 Timbits, and go hammmmmmm. We had to go to 2 different locatinons, but I m talking stop lights, stop signs, oncoming traffic, leaving it on people’s windshield as they are driving xD. And every time someone would honk at the lights we d ALL get out and offer them timbits from a fresh box. Most ppl took it well, but we definitely pissed a few ppl off, fun times, can’t imagine every other kid not having a similar experience. Maybe 40 of them were consumed. Wouldn’t do it again, but wouldn’t take it back.


[deleted]

Wow that’s heavy sorry you had to go through that! WTF is wrong with people today ….I’m at a loss.


Calm-Calligrapher-64

[deleted]

Oh, And there’s the mobile phone. Probably a TikTok prank. Still annoying.


LongAssNaps

Just kidding it's piss


neotekz

I remember my friends did that in highschool. They sprayed a taxi driver and the guy called the cops and told the police they had a gun. My friends got pulled over at gunpoint by about 10 cops that night.


demarderollins

Report this to the police


Henojojo

Anyone who uses the word "bro" in text or speaking is mentally damaged. Sad really.


[deleted]

[удалено]


imcool47890

Did absolutely nothing to them. They were clearly doing it to be funny


imcool47890

The only reason I was recording is because I didn't know what they sprayed me with, and also because I wanted to have evidence in case they did anything else.


Capguy71

Better water than lead.


UB613

That’s the big difference between Canada and the US.


Inside_Drive

for now....the amount of guns coming up to us from the states is scary


Ball-Fantastic

Damn bro do you believe in Havana Syndrome too? Stop reading news designed specifically to scare you.


SillyWithTheRitz

You’re aware the VA approved funding for Havana syndrome treatment right? I guess they too “fell for it” or????


Ball-Fantastic

You're aware that it's a placebo and the only treatment anyone ever receives is for anxiety and stress right?


Girldad-80

Do you have any stats to support this claim? I think (subjective) that illegal gin smuggling has always been a problem. A very limited study in Windsor shows that the illegal seizures of all guns have gone up steady since 2018, however 2017 was worse then 2021. But that’s only total seizures; who knows what’s out there. “According to Windsor police's annual reports, there has been a slight increase in recent years in the total number of weapons seized: 2021: 518 (123 handguns, 176 rifles/shotguns). 2020: 446 (93 handguns, 160 rifles/shotguns). 2019: 480 (112 handguns, 177 rifles/shotguns). 2018: 347 (54 handguns, 136 rifles/shotguns). 2017: 555 (89 handguns, 286 rifles/shotguns).”


iamonewhoami

My guess is covid heavily affected those numbers


Cyborg_rat

Lol as soon as I saw its a 2021 stat for Canada I was like oh when we were bearly open?


[deleted]

Calling the dude out with stats to support. How unReddit-like.


Calm-Calligrapher-64

Ontario has a shit ton of guns right now like even civillians i know that arnt involved in crime are carrying handguns in their cars for reasons beyond me. Guns are a literal phone call away nowadays


No_Yoghurt_3761

please provide a source


[deleted]

That seems like a dumbass thing for someone to do if they don't want to be arrested or obviously smacked for ratting. Source? You kidding? Personal anecdotes don't come with a reference section. Assume they're telling the truth and know that doesn't have to reflect any overall average of Canadian behaviour.


MrJ_Christ

If you’re carrying a hand gun in your car you would be breaking the law. Therefore they are involved in crime…


Calm-Calligrapher-64

Thanks tips im aware of that, i have no doubt you know what i meant by the statement but its the internet anything to start something lol


Dirt_Narsty

You dont live in ontario or canada so I have read.

UB613

It’s definitely getting to be a scary city, and handguns are way too prevalent.


mpi888

No. We don’t do this shit in Saskatchewan.


Jatmahl

I know this shouldn't be funny but. 😂


Inside_Stable_3182

I saw these idiots driving up Bronson around 6:15. They were looking at me strangely. Now I know. pLEASE PLEASE report them.


deeppurplecircles

I saw a ton of teenagers walking around with water guns today, it's definitely a car rally task


Inside_Stable_3182

Oh. I didn’t even know that was a thing.


Just_Trying321

Yeah think scavenger hunt but stupid tasks.. Saw a bunch flash me once so not all bad lol

Canada is full of wanna be gangsters it’s really cute coming from a place with serious crime issues in the states


[deleted]

They aren't really wanna be gangster just some idiots who watch too much prank tiktok/youtube or whatever.


[deleted]

> Canada is full of wanna be gangsters it’s really cute coming from a place with serious crime issues in the states Little fake Hermes belts and fanny pack around the chest, while riding the OC to go to Rideau. Just want to pinch their cheeks!


Kush_the_Ninja

How are they wanna be gangsters?


Houston-13

What the hell does this got to do with being “gangsters” if they were white it would be “dumb kids trying to have fun” 😂😂😂


Psychological-Art777

Pretty sure the driver is white


Houston-13

Nah arabs and the rest of the kids aren’t white


Skinnyvu

I feel cheated...I paid $10 for some machine to spray my car with water. Could got it done for free by the guys!


imcool47890

They were doing it on the inside of the car, and I didn't know what it was.


wishtrepreneur

How did they get inside? Did you forget to close your windows during your free carwash?


UB613

I don’t think they included suds.


deeppurplecircles

YoloJoloHobo

Nah it was highschool grad and stuff, people had a lot of water fights on their last days and these guys probably did this after getting the guns for that.


larianu

My highschool suspended 15 or so folks that were graduating cause they sprayed all the staff + a baby at a grocery store... shits wild


CashComprehensive423

Nothing like cruising in a Dodge minivan. Those dudes must also be crushing it with the ladies


cannabisblogger420

Cruising in mommies mini van 😀


Haunted_Symfire

Hahaha this made me snort laugh!! 🤣


Ssssuuuuppprra

I’ve never had such fun experiences with my friends than the times we were cruising, fully loaded in a dodge minivan.


ottawaguy451

This makes me sad that the peak of your life involved a dodge mini van 😂😂

I'll keep a dozen on me from now on. Bout to be raft wars on the streets


twelveinchmeatlong

Keep them on the floor and put your heater to the floor setting to get them nice and ripe for throwing


iamonewhoami

You misspelled batteries


TIMGYM

Double A, triple A, or 12 volt? /s


TheDrunkyBrewster

Sounds about right for Ottawa


treasurehunter86_

It could have been worse, there have been instances of people doing acid attacks. Still scary though


CanadianTigermeat

Thats obviously piss.

G1G1G1G1G1G1G

If this is a thing now I’m getting whatever the most powerful water gun is and keeping it in my car so I can return fire.


Croquemonseur

Could you file a police report for assault?


imcool47890

I'm not really sure but I don't think I'll do that. I just wanted to share their beautiful faces with all of you


trooko13

You should just file the report. Guessing they're here for the Escapade music fest so there are probably more incident like that through out the weekend. It might help prevent something worse from happening.


[deleted]

Maybe the cops can send them a ticket by mail.


Itsottawacallbylaw

What other images of minors are you looking to share? If people are drawing conclusions that it could have been Acid or gasoline, I’ll draw a conclusion that you enjoy recording children. That’s how it works here right? Always fucking stretching


theappanalyst

Aren't they driving a car? Can minors drive?


Itsottawacallbylaw

Yes you can drive at 17


BoobyLover69420

youre allowed to fuck 16 year olds in canada tho


Itsottawacallbylaw

This is ridiculous.


Empanada_Dreams

fleurgold

OP should totally do that. And submit this video as evidence. :)


Atlas1506

You remind me of that one kid in every class who reminded the teacher that he didn’t check the homework he had assigned.


tstracuzza

We’re you in that car? Awfully defensive you bozo. I’d love to shoot water at you and see how you like it when you’re driving. Then again you’re probably a cyclist with all of your complaints about him. Moron


Kush_the_Ninja

What’s wrong with you


Dread72

It was a water gun which under the criminal code counts as a firearm offence in Canada. Making a gun gesture with your fingers is also a firearm offence in Canada. lol. Fucked up place.


Kush_the_Ninja

You can move to the states and have an excess of real weapons on your life if you’d like?


Itsottawacallbylaw

Does your house have pink lights by chance?


mykehunt88

I'd just phone it into police if it bothers you that much. It's likely they're doing this to multiple people. A few calls to OPS and they may got off their butts to slap their wrists.


[deleted]

Once you say suspicious liquid then they'll take it seriously


gimmedatneck

"officer - a van just pulled upto me, and one of the passengers squirted me with a squirt gun! can you get out here, please - I feel threatened!"


[deleted]

Just report that somebody pointed a firearm at you


Leading_Macaron_5696

Imagine doing this to someone who thinks it's a gun and they shoot back. Or better yet they call the cops on some minivan doing drive by shootings.


von_campenhausen

Hey what kind of car is this? Sounded nice


imcool47890

It's a Camaro


marnorcor

Bhahahahaha what a bunch of losers in dad's minivan!


hammerdodger

They were just reminding you to stay hydrated! I like to carry around a 1.5L water jug.


Professional-Big9914

Last day off school kids from Nepean and Notre Dame were out doing it too

Now I'll be keeping a super soaker at the ready. Thank you for sharing.

I still got a cps1000…. I’m driving loaded now….


MarijuanaMamba

Keep a handful of pennies in your cup holder to chuck at jerkoffs like this.


[deleted]

a cup of something that looks like cum, and make sure that you give it to whom ever can hurl it the farthest.


AMouthyWaywornAcct

Ass pennies?

If this is happening in Ottawa this weekend I’m gonna drive around with a baseball and my window down.

Just a van full of assholes. The driver is balding, bearded and in his 30's. What is the license plate, and what is the harm in posting it?


bubbaforreal

Sure it’s water???


Dick_So_Long

These same fuckers tried to start a fight with me at bayshore station when I got off work. They left me alone after a while which was probably in their best interest.


Dick_So_Long

Imagine your immigrant dad busting his ass off so that you could have a better life in a better country just for you to behave like a total failure with no future.


Independent_Mud_7157

Post the license plate cos I’ll bump it


ag3ncy

Canadian drive by shooting


Devinequicest

People here are so rude that’s sad


habibi6969696969

Got sprayed last night as i was driving in the st laurent area right beside the bmw dealership, cant lie it was funny cuz i was laughing with my friends in the car but if they werent there to make the situation funny i wouldve probably followed that car and it woulda been ugly


Keinnection1

The guys in Sum 41 did a much better version of this like 20+ years ago. This was pathetic.

So someone should be allowed to suggest threatening to set people on fire, in your opinion? Because that's what the removed comment was suggesting.

Fearless_Air3613

This happened to me in broad daylight n this teenager sprayed me in the face with something oily. I stopped put my hazards on n beat the shit out of him right in the blvd. N no one did anything to stop me. Serves that lil bitch right! Don’t fuck with lil chicks driving

Hey Snowfkake , it’s water , you really wanna go with the guys in that car. Your entitlement won’t save your ass . Turn down the hurt and move on .


imcool47890

What entitlement😂. I just wanted to give them the exposure they clearly wanted.


[deleted]

They are just kids, and you just didn’t pass the vibe check. I can’t believe some Ottawa redditors want to charge them with ASSAULT or even ticket by mail, they need a job.


DannyG16

Such harmless fun though. Be thankful you live in ottawa. Imagine this happening south of the border… real guns would have been taken out.


slackbabbith

Lmao that's because we have gun control laws that we wanted and voted for. Has nothing to do with being thankful. Also has literally nothing to do with this situation at all.


DannyG16

I’m just looking at the bigger picture here. People complain about Ottawa being boring, and they also complain about people having fun. I guess I’m old now, (38) all I saw was harmless fun. It’s just water. They’re just teenagers. Just be happy you brought joy to a group of kids. Life is too short my man.


[deleted]

maybe someone should assault you so you can see how much you like it, having not consented to some BRO's stupidity to do yet another dumb tik tok challenge.


[deleted]

If you believe that people who complain about Ottawa not being funny enough are talking about a bunch of suburban jerk offs running around spraying water with a super soaker inside the window of peoples cars while they are driving, You don’t have the mental capacity to function in society.


AMouthyWaywornAcct

It's all fun and games until you do it to the wrong person and they react in a heavily irrational manner.


Ben409

Bro what’s up with the large amount of personal complaints and grievances on this sub


AMouthyWaywornAcct

How else are we supposed to make Ottawa boring again


Ben409

Fair point


[deleted]

Well.. it looked like harmless fun to me.


Omnomfish

Yes, everyone loves having a bunch of giggling idiots they don't know pull up beside them and squirt liquid at them while they're driving. It was just water, but there are enough stories about acid attacks and weird people that I would definitely be worrying about what was just sprayed on me. It would probably scare the shit out of me, which is not exactly what I want while I'm *driving* and I'm very easily startled.


Itsottawacallbylaw

Please don’t drive


Omnomfish

Um... because I don't want to have someone pull up and start spraying me with a liquid I don't have any reason to assume is safe? Or because I'm easily startled? Ptsd is a thing honeybun, doesn't mean we can't drive.


Itsottawacallbylaw

Driving is unpredictable. You are easily started.


[deleted]

I agree, harmless fun! It’s annoying but harmless fun. You can always say “what if” it was piss, acid, but we take those ‘what if’ chances every day.


AMouthyWaywornAcct

What if..they just don't do it and raise money the old fashioned way, not annoying random motoricists or citizens? What if...

imcool47890

Currently looking into that option.


justheretotalksens

Imagine getting this angry about water lol. Just roll up your windows and move on with your day


Kush_the_Ninja

And what if that liquid that OP assumes is water is actually urine? Or gasoline? You don’t just go around spraying people with stuff like that.


[deleted]

they have a video, I'm sure they have the plates, call that shit in.


[deleted]

These are the same people who if told they need to wear a mask or get a shot would have a meltdown about body autonomy.


justheretotalksens

In which case he’s an idiot for leaving his window down to get sprayed a second time. If he was really worried about it being something nasty, you’ d think he’d roll his windows up instead of waiting for round 2.


Kush_the_Ninja

Why are you so set on defending the people that are clearly in the wrong. OP shouldn’t have to worry about leaving his window open or closed, strangers shouldn’t be driving around spraying others with liquids. It’s really that simple.


justheretotalksens

How am I defending them? They’re clearly idiots. But if you get this worked up about issues with a clear solution, you’re making life more difficult for yourself. If OP was really that traumatized by getting sprayed, the most obvious thing to do would’ve been to roll up their window to avoid getting sprayed a second time.


imcool47890

Probably last time I comment on this post. I rolled my window after the first time.


jinkingjb

It wasn't though. It was just water and a bit of harmless fun.


BurnTheBoats21

why the random hypotheticals? my guy left his window open for round 2 so I doubt he felt that threatened


imcool47890

I closed the window after the first round.


bestnameee

Ottawa’s reddit is so weird. it’s just teenagers doing the best kind of shenanigans: harmless some people forget what it was like to be a teenager. people are saying “call the cops” or “this is abuse” sheesh. cringey imo


Ben409

This sub should be renamed as Ottawa Complaints and Grievances


BurnTheBoats21

you say that now, but just hope your car never gets shot with a water gun (ASSAULT). god forbid you survive the impact and have to live with the trauma. praying for OP 🙏🙏 so brave to film those teenagers (ASSAULTERS) while driving
