Road rager pointed gun at woman

[1911 10MM]

On big dirfferance between speeding and impeding traffic is that general speeding does not affect the drivers around them whereby the self appointed speed monitor is affecting the 1 or more drivers trying to get around them. I find that those impeding traffic are doing it for their own selfish reasons and find enjoyment in seeing the 1 or more cars behind them. I think it gives the self appointed monitors a feeling of gratification and self importance.

Speaking of self appointed.......

Was that directed at the mirror?

Responding to a wrong with a wrong is not appropriate. If the lady was doing something wrong or illegal, the guy should have dialed 911 and reported her. He didn't. He pulled a gun and pointed it at her.

As far as I can tell, the woman has not been cited for doing anything illegal. Justifying a road rager's illegal actions does no good. I too get extremely frustrated when someone is hogging the left lane and impeding traffic. However, I have never considered pulling my gun because of it.

, even we old folk encounter a road hog every now and then but as frustrating as it is, I know that it's not forever so I don't feel the need to go OR try to pass in a no passing zone or something equally dangerous and stupid.

You didn't point a gun at him did you?

Looks like you did the right thing by staying to the right and not impeding.

You are 100% correct. After that right hander coming into the back straight, you would normally track out to the left using the whole track for max acceleration out of the turn. But I heard what sounded like the space shuttle coming up behind me and crimped it in over to the right to avoid being run over

It is interesting that you don't think there is any reason to be in the passing lane, other than to slow you down.

Older people usually like the inner lanes, because they are uncomfortable in traffic, and trying to get through a "big city" safely.
Maybe they got over for an emergency vehicle.
Maybe the road conditions make the right lane difficult to drive on.
The right lane typically will be going much slower than the speed limit, because of all the on/off traffic.

If you want a race track, buy one.

Read and understand the law.

I'm as guilty as anyone on this thread, but let's get back on topic if there's anything else to post. The post is about a foolish and criminal act, not left-lane-bandits.

It didn't look like the road rage tailgater was in the left lane, but even if they were, they were endangering others by their foolish and criminal act. Then after bulldogging the driver in front of them, they finally passed while pointing an object at him. I'm not surprised he thought he might have to defend himself from the road rage tailgater.
