You should really leave the speed policing to the cops. It's their job.
How would you feel if the maniac went ballistic later and ran into another car? Or if he went WOT to pass you, and ran head on with oncoming traffic because you wouldn't let him pass. Pete, you said that you downshifted and then accelerated till eh couldn't pass. I think you were taunting him. I'm a fast driver and just today, i gave the guy a bird for holding up traffic on lane #1. He was driving at the limit. I wasn't the only driver p'd off. It's not your job. |

Honestly kind of a dangerous manuver. The guy might be a jerk, but what happens if he went head-on to someone on the other side because you decided not to let him pass you. The 3rd party would be the biggest loser in the accident.
Just 2 pennies.

If you don't want to go as fast as the guy behind you then let him pass. You're not doing anyone any favors, you're being an egotistical road hog. Is your equipment so small that you can't let someone pass without feeling less manly? Maybe he was late for work, maybe someone loves is in the hospital and just maybe he just likes to drive faster than you. At any rate, if it was a new GT you hardly stand a chance in a race with him if he wasn't blocked in front. Try being a more considerate driver, we'd all be happier if everyone was.

Teen released in deadly 'road rage'
Friday, September 16, 2005 Associated Press A 17-year-old football player was released from a Camden County detention center yesterday, two days after authorities say his punches killed a man who had followed him home and tried to run him down with a car. The teen, a junior offensive and defensive lineman on Lindenwold High School's football team, must wear an electronic monitoring device except during football games, said his lawyer, Jeffrey Zucker. A family court judge ordered the boy released during a closed hearing. Authorities said James Munter, 53, followed the teen home Monday after becoming enraged when the boy cut him off while the two were driving. Zucker said his client had cut off Munter inadvertently when pulling out of a gas station. Authorities said Munter followed the boy for three miles to his Lindenwold house and, when the teen ran across the street, ran into him with his car. The teen, authorities said, rolled off the car and landed on his feet. He punched Munter, also of Lindenwold, twice through his open car window. Munter died Tuesday. Prosecutors said they have not decided whether to upgrade the charges against the boy from aggravated assault to manslaughter, leave them or drop the case. The 6-foot-6, 300-pound teen was wearing shorts and a T-shirt as he left the Camden County Hall of Justice yesterday morning. His hair was mussed and he looked bewildered. Neither he nor his family would talk to reporters. Zucker said the teen, whose name has not been released because of his age, planned to play in tonight's football game. First Assistant Camden County Prosecutor James P. Lynch said an autopsy conducted Wednesday showed both blows were on the left side of Munter's head -- one near his eye and one on his ear. The force caused a blood vessel to break and Munter to lose blood to his head. He never regained consciousness before he died. Lynch said yesterday that investigators were still gathering facts to help decide whether and how to prosecute the teen. "This case could not be more serious," Lynch said. "A gentleman lost his life." Zucker said he hopes prosecutors will drop the charges. If they do not, he said, he would argue that the teen acted in self-defense, punching Munter in the heat of the moment when he legitimately feared for his life. It was the teen, Zucker said, who called an ambulance immediately after he punched the man. Munter's family declined to speak with reporters after yesterday's court hearing. But his widow, Nadine Munter, told the Courier- Post of Cherry Hill for yesterday's newspapers that she did not believe the teen acted in self-defense. "My husband never got out of the car," she said. "He was strapped to his seat. He never had a chance." Rocco Cipparone, a criminal defense lawyer who also teaches a criminal law course at Rutgers University School of Law in Camden, said that to establish self-defense in New Jersey, a suspect must show there was a reasonable expectation of death or serious bodily harm, must not have had an escape route and must use the minimum amount of force necessary to get out of the situation. |

It's sad that some of the places I have been up north if you give someone the finger because they cut you off, you're lucky they don't shoot you. My family is from Brooklyn, so my dad tells me a lot of stories. Some people are really messed up in the head.

Both 53 and 17 year old are and were immature. One is now dead. All because of their egos being bruised by being "cut off" or such in their cars.
I admit that I get POd when someone cuts me off, rant and rave and curse. But there are too many things to worry about and live for than getting too greatly upset over traffic. Last edited by MCS; 09-20-2005 at 10:59 AM.. |
