[QUOTE="Danny Tanner, post: 1673861, member: 10619"] I had a run-in with a road rager Saturday night, whom I assuming was drunk. I was heading east on I-44 in the right lane about to take the exit/on-ramp for Broadway Extension north. For those who live around here, you know that the exit ramp for the Broadway Extension interchange runs alongside I-44 for a couple of hundred yards before you can merge right to take Broadway/77 south or go straight for another 100 yards or so to turn right and loop around to go Broadway north. Well, I'm minding my own business and have made the exit onto the off-ramp when all of a sudden from the middle or far left lane this car swings right into the off-ramp maybe 15-20 feet in front of me. In doing so, he went over a curb and lost a hubcap that happened to go straight under my truck. I flash my high-beams a couple of times and he rolls down his window and sticks his middle finger in the air at me. Whatever. He happens to be going the same route I'm going. We both get onto Broadway with no problem. Well, I hop into the left lane and pass him and he immediately jumps behind me, turning his high-beams on (protip for road-ragers: when you drive a 90's Kia/VW/Hyundai with brown headlights, your highbeams do nothing to irritate me, especially since I have 2% tint on my windows and you're riding so far up my arse my tailgate is blocking your headlights anyway). I change back over into the right lane and he follows me there. Mostly running his high-beams, but also flashing them at me every now and then, especially at off-ramps. He'd also signal and move into every exit lane while flashing his brights in an attempt to get me to pull over and fight him, I suppose. In between exit ramps he keeps pulling up beside me, once he tried to run me off the road by swerving into my lane. When that didn't work he tried pulling in front of me and throwing stuff out of his window, which didn't work at all (one was a cup of coke which went all down the side of his car, it didn't make it 4 inches out of his car, he was either that drunk or that much of a wuss). Me not taking his bait seemed to make him more upset. At one point he pulled in the lane next to me and ahead of me about 20 feet while the passenger was hanging out of the window yelling and trying to get me to pull over. It was then that I laughed because he was wearing a sleeveless black t-shirt and had a phaggy dyed-black emo haircut, looking much like the homos from Avenged Sevenfold. I wasn't worried about much until they got off the same exit I did, which is close to my house. I was going to drive in the general direction of my neighborhood and if he followed me that far I was going to call the police and have this guy follow me into their net, but about 1/2 mile away from my house they decided to give up.
