A$$hole wrecked my truck

I'll keep this short b/c I'm still really pissed. My girlfriend and I were going to grab a bite to eat this morning, minding our own business. My brother was on his way to work @ the same time so he pulled up beside me to check out my new painted calipers. We come to a light and I'm up front beside another car and my brother was one car back in the other lane. I notice that there is a guy directly behind me yelling at my brother and flipping him the bird. The light turns green so I wait for my brother to pull beside me again. He said that the guy was really pissed b/c he had accidentally cut him off a few miles back. I figure, ok no big deal. We ride another mile and by this time the guy is eating my bumper. We then go from a two lane to a three lane so the guy goes far right for the pass but a car was already there. This was apparently more than he could stand b/c he then came all the way back accross behind me in the left lane and pulled into the ditch for the pass. Keep in mind we are going the speed limit of 45. He pulls up beside me but the ditch was about to turn into a ***** load of bushes, so he then decided to take a hard right into my truck. We come to a stop and he is screaming and cursing so I called the police and told them to come quick. This guy was out of his mind (until the police showed up). He then calmed down and told the police that I ran him into the ditch. The police did a sorry *** job of investigating and didn't give a ticket to him. So basically I'll have to eat the damages myself.

Sorry to hear that man.. Here in Ga, seems like when I try to drive 5 miles over the speed limit people act as if they're trying to run right into you..They'll fly up from behind and wait til they get right on your rear bumper to change lanes..It's a scary view in the mirror.. Makes me feel like i'm dodging bullets...I use to drive about 80mph but when you slow down and try to do the right thing it seems more dangerous.. Now I see how the slow drivers feel with traffic flying up on em. That guy is an idiot and honestly if it were me and he had some nerve to curse at me, It would have took the cops to come there and pull me off the guy or he'd be a pulp!! ..

I can't think of anything that pi$$es me off more than a road rager. They always think they're right no matter how wrong they are.

Sorry to hear the terrible news.

No witnesses to back you up?

My girlfriend and my brother were whitnesses. He had a whitness also. Everyone that was behind us decided not to stick around. They said that they couldn't tell if he ran into me or if I ran him off the road.

I know how you feel. One week after I had my L a guy kept cutting me off as I merged onto the expressway. Finally at WOT I went to pass him. He also sped up. I thought I was passed him so I moved over and he brushed against the bed of my L. When the police report came back, it was his fault. Sorry to hear you have to pay the bill.

Mike,

Take his sorry butt to court. You can almost count on him lying and when that happens you can chew him up.

I'd be enraged, too. Man what a flaming A$$! People should grow up...you'd expect a tantrum from a 5,6,7 years old, not an adult. Although it does happen from time to time, unfortunately. Tonight on the way home from work, I saw a young lady getting out of her car in front of a corner store...she double parked and so passers by were obviously irritated. One passer by, another woman said something to this lady and the next thing I know a soda was thrown against the passer by's car; the double parked lady started kicking the heck out of this other lady's car and for no real reason. people should just grow up and take responsibility for their own temper/actions.

Hope it turns out okay for you...
