Tonight my wife and I were driving down a semi-major highway here and we saw a Prelude that kept cutting this minivan off. He would not let the guy pass and almost caused three accidents that I saw. The minivan was doing everything it could to avoid this idiot, but the guy kept speed matching and cutting over. So, I sped up got his license plate number, then slowed down again. For 10 minutes I was watching what this idiot was doing, and at one point he almost ran into a pickup. So I decided I was going to call the highway patrol and let them know what was going on. After giving the patrol all the info (make,model,plate number, direction of travel, etc.) I hang up and continue following the guy. Eventually we hit a stop light and I pulled up to the van and noticed it was an older couple in their early to mid 50's, and they were visibly shaken. I asked if they were allright, and let them know I called in the guys plates. I don't know if the guy was pulled over or not, but I really hate it when people do crap like that!

Good for you man, we need more people out there that care enough to do that. I had a similar experience once, but my cell phone cut out when I was trying to call the police. I tried a few times, but the guy got off before I did and I figured they'd never get him.

I watched a guy do that one day and it was raining. He ended up stopping at a stoplight and he got out of the car and walked up to the driver's side of the car that he was messing with and just wailed on the guy and got back in his car. Both of them just drove off like nothing happened. It was weird...I was all like WTF?
