Recently, I had been attacked by a lady due to road rage. Traffic was almost at a complete standstill over an hour. My lane was merging into hers. She was upset, when I got in front of her. So her mom started yelling profanity. I told them I had my 2yr old nephew and 4yr old daughter in the car. They didn't care. The 20-something daughter ran up to my car, just as I was rolling up all windows and locking the door. She yanked on my door, yelling profanity. I told her I was calling the cops, which I did. My daughter is in the back seat crying and scared. However, traffic started moving and I couldn't get a description of her car because she put her brights on. What is wrong with these people?? And my sister was with me and knows the mom. She lives near her in our small town!!

Funny you say that. On my way to work in the morning, there was a nut case in one of those jacked up trucks in bumper to bumper traffic was flying through the emergency lane and literally turned right me when I was barely moving. I honked my horn and he flipped me off and continued turning into my lane. was forced to go into a lane that was occupied by another vehicle before moving back into my lane and let the nut in. Luckily the car in the next lane say what was happening and there was no accident. Still even after and trying to give the guy the benefit of the doubt, the freak stuck his head out the window and put his finger to his head like he had a gun-who knows what he was thinking.
After he did that to me, he began doing the same thing to drivers around me. I whipped out my video camera that I alway keep with me for messing around and filmed him. Once he realized he was on film and I had his license plate and showed him, I called the highway patrol, that guy understood he was a dead duck and made a quick exit off the freeway.
I was on the phone with the highway patrol all the time and once they nailed him, called me at work to show them my video and place place him under arrest.
That guy must have spent $40,000-$60,000 on his car. I don't see him legally being able to drive a car for a year. In my state wreckless driving suspends your license.
Always nice to have the the video camera. Feels great to put the bad guy behind bars

You did nothing wrong but try this.
Be cautious of other drivers and expect the unexpected.
Do not make eye contact with an irate driver.
Do not confront an upset motorist.
If you are cut off, do not make any hand gestures to the other motorist.
If you are being chased by another motorist who appears to be in a rage, do not weave in and out of traffic. You could cause harm to yourself, passengers, and other motorists.
If you are being chased, drive with the flow of traffic. If you have a cell phone, call 911. Go to a place where you feel safe.
If you have to pull over, try to go to a well-lighted location where there are other people.

I've seen road rage & I've been enraged, but I only gave the middle finger to the other driver and I sped off!
Your case is extreme!
It's called small-town road rage, film @ 11:00.

No, but don't try to be because you can end up in killing yourself or other people!
Just follow the rules and avoid road rage as much as possible!
Call the police if you witness road rage!
