I took my dog outside to do his business about 45 minutes ago. While coming in, some little jerks decide it would be fun to cruise past my house yelling obscenities at 11:45PM. It wasn't just random words--they explicitly called me some pretty tardy stuff. The kicker? I don't even know these people. Never even seen their vehicle before.
Since I was up by the house I just opened the door and put the dog in. I had the keys in my pocket so I hopped up into my parents truck and booted it up the corner. My mistake because it is pretty rough conditions out right now but anyhow, I was pissed and wanting to catch up with them. Let me state right here that NO ONE else was out on the roads at this time and road condition on Christmas Eve during this encounter. I would never purposely put the lives of others at risk.
I saw the green little Ford Escape at the corner. I pull up in the right hand lane and motion to roll down the window. Now, I'm not confrontational usually, hell I don't even know what possesed me to do this, but I asked them for an apology. The one riding shotgun yells "fvck you b!tch" and one of the kids in the back threw something through his window which hit the truck. I didn't see what the item was. I think it was just some plastic of some sort. Nothing enough to do damage to the truck but I was still pretty angered by it.
They pull off pretty fast when it hits green and I pursue them. I start keeping pace with them (but not riding them) and they realize I'm now angered. It was never my intention to hurt them. I've never fought in my life but I'm a pretty big guy so that might of made them nervous. Perhaps they were just trying to show off what their little Escape could do. Or maybe they just want to lose me. I don't know and it doesn't really matter. They start doing about 70km/h which is pretty fast (for these conditions). I don't let up.
Jerkoff hit a patch, over-compensated, swerved and ditched the Escape. Not only that but he hit the ditch right where the driveway goes over and the pipe is exposed. So picture him sliding from the right side (of a now single lane road) to the left side and going into a ditch. The front left corner of his vehicle basically hit the ditch pipe where it comes out and his right side was in the air.
I feel pretty bad about this now though. I'm kind of nervous I might somehow get in trouble? Can they get me on anything? I didn't verbally, or through any gestures threaten them even once so I'm not liable for anything am I? Probably worried over nothing.
Cliff's Notes:
- Kids drive past house and yell some rude things while I'm bringing dog inside
- I jump in truck and catch up at the corner, roll down window and ask for apology
- They are rude again, throw something at my parents truck and speed off
- I follow them and they speed up
- They hit patch and ditch their Ford Escape
