Road rage?

Went out to get gas. The wife saw a co-worker in his yard, so stop there and talk. A subaru pulled up behind and laid on his horn. I am an aho. So I drove away at 10 mph. He was honking his horn all the way. I get to end of the block and let him pass. He threaten me. I followed him. He tried to cause an accident 3 times. He then stopped in the middle of a main street and yelled “I have plenty of time.” He turned a corner almost hitting a woman in the crosswalk. He parked and got out his vehicle. I went around him. I was doing 25 - 30 mph. A homeowner was out with kids told me to slow down. I stopped and said I am sorry and someone is chasing me. The homeowner stood out in front of the subaru. It looked liked they talked. The subaru drove to end of the block, turned around drove back to them. I circled the block because I didn’t to let him know where I lived. After leaving there, he went back down the first street.

You should’ve pulled out your charizard and firespinned his ass.

That’s definitely road rage. Any chance you might recall more info about the car? Probably wouldn’t hurt to call your local sheriff’s office and report it. You’re probably not the only one.

My wife took a picture of the vehicle including license plate. I think the authorities have bigger things on their plate now.

Simpletons don’t know how to manage the collective stress we are all experiencing, so they act out in whatever small-minded way they can to release.

I didn’t help the matter, but isn’t it the law, The more they honk, the slower you must go.

Just last week I was on my way home from work, about 2 miles out of town a car was stopped at a 4 way stop intersection. He sat there for a good 20 seconds but felt like a minute. I was in no rush so I waited, he of course turned where I needed to turn. Started driving about 25mph in a 55mph zone and I stayed behind him still in no rush, plenty of distance in between us. He then slowed down to about 15mph so I passed him. After I passed him he started driving crazy swerving all over honking at me, riding me. So I slow down to let him pass and of course he doesn’t pass. He ends up following me into town and continued to ride me so I didn’t want to pull into my driveway and let him know where I live or have some sort of confrontation so I decided I’ll lead him to the police station. I pulled into the police station parking lot right in front of the camera and he drove by. It was kind of crazy for my small town, I know almost everyone here but he had out of state plates.

You weren’t in the wrong initially, but it does sound like you let your ego get the better of you.

Reminds me of a few situations I’ve seen on active self protection; (Some videos are graphic/disturbing - do not watch if that sort of thing effects you)

They teach us many lessons including to deescalate.

Sounds like a standard commute for us in California LOL

Should have beated him to death, just saying.

The thing with this is, it is against the law if your blocking the way of traffic. Im absolutely certain that if it was the police, an ambulance or fire truck, you wouldn’t have driven away at 10mph so why do it to this guy. have some more respect for people around you. self confessed aho, doesnt make his actions right but also doenst make yours

Great response but your username tells me you drove the Subaru lol jk.

I want to let you know I drive a Subaru but don’t drive like that. I did when I was young and stupid though.

I had some Oregonian not let me pass him, would cut me off while other cars are around, I got pretty heated, but think it was road rage on both sides lol.

I drive a Kia lol
