Road Rage

I was driving on the freeway and about to exit when a late model Toyota Camry sped by me on my right side between me my exit as I was turning into it, and almost caused me to miss my exit. Good thing I looked twice because a green Ford bronco came up on my rear, darted around me and cut me off again chasing the Camry.

The Camry darted back onto the off ramp and so did the Bronco with two guys in it, the driver flailing his arms out the window and throwing things at the Camry from the truck. They both came to a stop behind cars waiting at a red light as I came up on the Bronco from the rear and slowed to a stop.

The driver of the Bronco jumped out and in a fast pace went to the rear of his vehicle open the camper shell door and took out what looked like a golf club, he then strutted back around his vehicle and up to the Camry and bashed the rear window in. There were a lot of cars at this 4 lane light stop but no one sad anything.

We were all in shock! 

The driver of the Camry then got out of his car, went over to the Bronco's driver who had gotten back into his truck after breaking that guys rear window out. And to everybody's surprise, grabbed the guy in the truck around the throat and proceeded to put his fist through the side window of the Bronco. The guy in the truck just sat still and his passenger did too.

After a few seconds the Camry driver who stood about 6'5" and looked to weigh about 250 lbs released the other guys throat and walked away. Both drivers left without further incident. Are incidents of road rage increasing in your area? Has it been escalating lately? Watch out! People are reacting badly to otherwise mundane things lately. Keep your cool.
