Sorry, I misread that you had flipped him off. I still wouldn't have called the police.

I know it wasn't a real gun and it was the same as flipping someone off, but it was disconcerting. It felt almost like he had a real gun in the car and was warning me. I took the first exit just to get away from him.

I wanted to call the police but thought they'd laugh it off. Now at the office others are telling me I should have.

Would you have?

Why were you staring him down when you passed him? Might want to limit that rude behavior in the future, it could get you in trouble trying to act tough like that.

While I would be tempted to - - I might just have let it go.

This clown could be just some sicko who gets his jollies by randomly scaring people on the freeway.
Or maybe not.
Anyone who reads/hears the news in this day ➕ age can concur that there are too many unsettling crimes happening on a daily basis.

Based on this and this alone I would likely make a report at the police station.
Especially if you can remember the type of vehicle he was driving along with how he looked.

Hopefully this was just an isolated incident and the guy was just being a jerk.
But we should always err on the side of caution too…….

Sounds like he was a potentially violent MAGA who was looking for a confrontation with someone, no doubt as a pretense for shooting them. These people are crazy and they’re itching for the chance to kill anyone they think might be a Progressive. They’re armed to the teeth and violent. No one is safe around these a-holes.


Yes, call the cops. Tell them he pointed a gun at you. Even if he didn’t, it’s a guarantee theres a gun in that car somewhere and they’ll find it when they search it.

Most people here are completely enamored and in love with the police and think they are Supermen who can solve all issue from neighbors using blackout curtains to cats not eating their fancy cat food.
Except violent criminals and illegals. They hate them if they do anything about them. Maybe most people here are both?

I thought that PP meant that OP had "initiated the interaction" by looking over at the driver whilst passing them on the right. You are able to pass them. All he's doing is clogging up the left lane. There is no need to look over at him. That's just asking for trouble. Stay in your lane. Literally and figuratively. These road marshalls are insane. Don't play their game.

I would call the number to report aggressive driving - here in NJ it’s #77 but I’m not sure that applies elsewhere. Or call the state highway patrol with a description, location and tag number if you have it. Just driving 55 continuously in the left lane is against the law before he did anything potentially threatening.

Found the moron that thinks camping in the left lane is fine.

Depends on what they re told. If they are told he imitated a gun with his hand they wont do anything. If they are told he pointed a real gun at him, they will abolutely make a visist. If the guy happens to own any firearms, it gets very interesting (probble cause) and will likley get himarrested.

Yeah, lie to the cops and file a false report. Typical lib reaction. You know the cops hate having their time wasted almost as much as they hate libs. They will arrest you.
