Hanger Posted February 14, 2007 Share Posted February 14, 2007 I was driving on 60E to go to work this morning, as i enter the freeway, i proceed to change lane in moderate speed (55mph+) from the outside lane to the left. I saw an opportunity to cut into the 2nd lane (counting from the left) when i saw this pickup truck who is acclerating but still slow and leaves plenty of space and i proceed change into that lane. He saw me and braked to change into the 1st lane (counting from the left, which is the fast lane). As he was passing me, he turned and stared at me, as i was staring at him too, he looked really pissed.... After he barely passed my car, he suddenly cut infront of me (2nd lane) with space that barely fits of compact sedan and i had to brake and change lane to the left to avoid hitting him, and he did as well, followed me and change to my lane blocking my way again..... i could see his grin from his side view mirror... I reduced my speed, and see him swerving from the 1st lane to the 2nd, stopping me to change lane to get out... (there were too much traffic for me to pull out...) Then he pulls infront of me, stick his hand outside the window to flip me a finger, i was so pissed and i return him two. He hit the brakes and completely stopped (60 mph - 0) on the 1st lane causing me to flip the emergency light and come to a complete stop, causing the traffic had to change into the emergency lane to avoid us... He opened his door and put one foot on the ground (At this point, i was pissed and scared) He proceed to point fingers at me, flipping me fingers, and cussing at me... but i had my windows up i couldn't hear anything, only thru his facial expression, i can see that he's really pissed and crazy... then he gave me two fingers and took off and merged onto another freeway... It was a silver 99-2000 Tacoma Truck, i knew i should've taken down his license plate number and report it in for road rage and threatening... god knows i was just stunned about what happened and a little bit scared for my life... ○ ○ ○ Instagram: itshangertime :spin: ○ ○ ○ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MannyLegacy Posted February 14, 2007 Share Posted February 14, 2007 Dang mang. Sorry to hear that. But yeah People SUCK! And the GREATEST part about most of them is that even if you had the "right-of-way" it doesn't matter to them. They think you're in the wrong. I always run into these people, and I just have to laugh. It's really unbelieveable how worked up they can get over "driving". Anyways, glad you're safe. :munch: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Gitster Posted February 14, 2007 Share Posted February 14, 2007 I gave a guy the finger once. Didnt turn out well, I was a dumb teenager. I had an early 90s Maxima at the time, and some DB in a Corrolla was trying to race me. I finally gave in cause he was being a real douche. I smoked him and gave him the finger for driving like an idiot while i was getting off an exit. He slammed on the brakes and followed me to my final destination at a soccer stadium. Luckily I had 2 friends with me, I was on the phone with a friend we were meeting when I got out of the car. He asked my BIG friend if I was calling the cops and took off. Im not sure exactly why he followed me if he didnt plan on shooting me. I just have a big problem with a rusty old RICER POS Civic or Corrolla challenging me, I dont need it. I was young and stupid so i proceeded to do what I did. Now I am wiser. My dad got stabbed in a similar confrontation. Its a good lesson at least, let the lunatics pass you, and dont give them the finger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Effin Ponderous Posted February 14, 2007 Share Posted February 14, 2007 don't beat yourself up over not doing anything. Although I'm an east coaster, I had the same thing happen to me out there last year. I was in Long beach getting on the 710 from one of the main streets there (the one the Westin is on) . There are two lanes that turn right to get on the 710, and then they go down to 1 lane. Some A-hole came up the right lane and cut me off as it had already come down to 1 lane. I flipped the guy off and he locked up his brakes. I swerved on to the shoulder to keep from hitting him and the guy got out of his car. I left and spent the next two days wishing I had stopped. It wouldn't have led to anything good. You were smart for not getting out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hanger Posted February 14, 2007 Author Share Posted February 14, 2007 I can't help but wonder, if he did got out, and come at my car with a baseball bat, how would i react... would i get out also to defend myself and my car, or would i stay in the car... ○ ○ ○ Instagram: itshangertime :spin: ○ ○ ○ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
