I had a wacko that was traveling too fast and didn't see me turn left. She probably had to slam on the brakes but boy was she mad. Proceeded to speed up and get ahead of me in my lane slamming her brakes. Didn't work because I was watching her from the rear mirror so I was ready. As soon as she glided in front of me, I went right back to the right lane and started going home. She then proceeded to follow me home which shocked me. When she was right behind me in her tiny car I got on my cell phone and pretended I was calling someone. I also pretended to take her photo. She immediately turned around and sped off, but it was the weirdest thing. If it didn't work I was going to drive to the police station which wasn't too far away.

I would've point my own Peggy Sue back at'em. Then blown the smoke. And smiled. We're gangsta in these street.

That there is no gun presented doesn't disqualify it from being ADW-Gun (Implied).

Much the same way if a person robs a bank and implies that they have a gun, but don't, they are still charged with armed robbery.

OP should've called police with tag. They don't need to witness the infraction for a felony crime, which this is.

By "letting this go" you are just giving them a pass, and the next time they do it and up their game and actually kill someone, then that blood is on your hands, because you could've maybe stopped them.


Just when I thought I'd seen/heard it all, along comes some complete IDIOT to prove to me that I have not. This is without a doubt the dumbest thing I've heard in a long time.

Go ahead and call the police and tell them someone pointed their finger at you and said "Bang". Jesus, how do you function in daily life?

Sounds like a crazy person. I wouldn't engage but try to get the license number and file a complaint.

It wasn't super slow, but apparently it was slow enough to piss off the guy behind me, because right after the turn we were stopped at a light and he made a gun shape with his hands and fired at me twice. Then, when the light turned green, he pulled around me and pointed his finger gun at my 9-year-old (who was in the passenger seat). That was the end of it, but I'm still thinking about it, and wondering if I should have taken down his license plate and called the cops. Thoughts?


Yes, by all means, call the police - we can't have that maniac driving around the streets!

Whatever the police are doing it cannot be as important as apprehending this finger gun bandit.

Every time someone points a finger, not only should you call the manners police because it's rude to point, but the real police, because you can always interpret a finger gesture as being an implied gun threat. Riiight. Some of you are beyond bizarre.
