A week or so ago, I was on the freeway and I saw a road-rage battle playing out in real time.
A week or so ago, I was on the freeway and I saw a road-rage battle playing out in real time.
I wish I could’ve filmed the incident, but there was obviously no way to do so safely, at least not without a dash cam. I didn’t see what started it, but someone in a bro-dozer pickup must’ve pissed off someone in an old, beat-up Mercedes. The Merc continued to speed up, get in front of the truck, and then brake-check him. The two vehicles eventually came to a full stop just up the road from me and I thought it might get worse — but the truck owner drove around and the situation seemed defused.
Believe it or not, I haven’t seen a ton of crazy road-rage incidents, at least not beyond the occasional one-finger salute. But maybe you have?
If so, let’s hear your stories.
