C'mon, I know the OP was hotheaded but SLAMMING the brakes by that douchebagery Dodge was uncalled for.
Hopefully he'll do this to an unmarked patrol car and get his upandcommance.

Maybe y'all could both die in the same accident. Ya know, the whole two birds with one stone deal.

Maybe it could be a three car accident and you could die with us?

Nah, I wouldn't be anywhere near two assholes like you two seem to be.

I don't know, seems to me you'd be right in the thick of things.

You're a hot head like me. Sorry to hear you wound up with some damage to your car because of it. You should have called the cops and reported that jackass for hit and run.

Thank you and nice word. I think maybe some of you think Im pleaing for sympathy so you automatically commend this redneck's douchebagery.

Considering when you learn stuff for driver's license tests you're specifically taught NOT to do this OP should take a defensive driving course... if he can sit through it without going insane from boredom...

I didn't commend anything. I think you're both assholes.

Hopefully you don't get out on the road anymore tonight. Seems like you're having a little bit of a problem calming down. ;)

Driving home, guy in a full size dodge truck is tailgating me. Makes it worse that his lights are the perfect height to blind the fvck out of me. I proceed to stop short at a light and flip him off. Driving on a 2 lane road, we were in the right hand lane, but this lane was wide enough for 2+ cars in it. After I flip him off, he drives around me on the right-hand side and cuts me off and slams on his breaks. My front-right bumper hits his rear-left bumper. Becuase his truck is higher then mine, it rides up and hits my right light.

He takes off and I follow. I write down his license plate number and continue to follow. He switches lanes and we pull up to a red light next to each other. The conversation starts off rather calmly and I ask him what the heck he is doing just taking off. He then starts ranting that it is my fault, he will not give me his info, and that I need to go take care of my own "******".

After I realize there is no way this guy is going to pull over, I give up and give in to my anger. I tell him to go fvck himself and this ignites an admittedly childish exchange of every curse word that both of us know. This continues to the next light where he takes it to the next level by getting out of his truck and threatens to kick my ass. He never comes around the front of his truck, but this makes me realize he is much more crazy then I ever will be. I end it there, roll up my window, and go home.

EDIT: I was an idiot, not looking for sympathy, just venting about some douchebagery.

The last time a guy tried to pull a move like that on me, he ended up taking a mandatory nap on the shoulder of Route 130.

No, I never have flipped anyone off and then gotten on a public forum and bitched about the consequences of that action.

Maybe not in that order, but you've certainly flipped off someone, and you're bitching now. You've got both those bases covered. ;)

Hardly, if you read my first post I explain that I did the wrong thing and that I was an idiot. Who wants sympathy for being and idiot? I was venting, which is what people do here on ATOT.

Good job on adding that little tidbit AFTER I asked if you were a sympathy whore.

If you call what I'm doing bitching then I know exactly what you need for Christmas...a dictionary.

I'm just guessing you're not the only one without a clue on ATOT. I'm being proactive towards your brethren.

You running into him in the REAR is your fault. Take your medicine like a man. Him getting out of the truck and threatening you would end up in him getting shot here in Texas most likely.

Out of context you're right. I realized tonight that there are crazy fvckers on the road and that I need to be more aware of that.

Thank god I don't live in Texas btw.

Flipped off this tall thin black guy once - he got out of his car straight away, turns out to be covered in tattoos and scars, starts shouting in a heavy West African accent 'I shoot you! I fsking shoot you!', makes a gun shape from his hand and stabs it at my window. I'm like, holy crap, this dude is some kind of African gangster here on a holiday!
