They were tailing me in the left lane. Someone was in front of me. They passed on the right, but had to cut me off to avoid cars on the right that were going slow. Then they tailed the person in front of me. When the person in front of them moved to the right, they slammed on their brakes, got out of their car all puffed up, and started coming at me… instead of continuing on with no one in the left. Which makes no sense at all.

Oh, the roid-road-rage. So pathetic.

      I had the same thing happen to me. It was an old white dude trying to enforce whatever law he thought I had violated. It took all the self restraint I had to not escalate the situation. I’m usually pretty calm, but the whole situation had me livid. I have since given it some thought as to why asshole drivers make me so angry.

      1. A 3,500 lbs with that kind of inertia is incredibly dangerous. Driving recklessly because you’re goofing around, proving a point, or because your time is so valuable that you put the lives of others in danger… is psychotic.
      2. It’s cowardly. Usually drivers don’t get out, so they are safe in their little isolated bubble picking a fight that any sane person has to just leave be.

      That kind of behavior is right up there with guys who carry guns to prove how tough they are.

      I wish our laws better weeded out these idiots.

        They do weed them out, they just aren’t enforced!! :(

        I’ve been encouraged to send the video to the highway patrol, so tomorrow I’ll pull all the videos and send one to them.

            I’ll be uploading it tomorrow with some fun captions. I have a rear and front facing camera, so it catches how he was diving in the first few minutes up until he suddenly stopped and got out.

            I was concerned looking at it for the first time. Maybe I would change my mind and feel less justified complaining… but no, it’s pretty clear.

          They would weed them out, they just aren’t enforced!! :(

          I think you meant that. If they do weed any out, I’m not seeing it.

            Yes that is the proper word.
