What about the part where you don't smoke and are not in the mafia?

7 series ownership would probably lead to cigar smoking, I'm not denying that.

Going after the truck is one thing, but you can't put other drivers at risk.

Maybe the owner of the 7 series just wanted to reduce the size of the kidney grills and thought that this would be a fun way of doing it.

Now if the F150 driver stepped out to address the accident and the 7 series driver was so angry he tried to run the guy over... that'd be a different story.

Of course this is all predicated on the assumption that the F150 caused this and tried to flee. And if so, I hope the 7 series driver beats the charges. Fuck people who drive without insurance, cause havoc and then run. 7 series driver a hero in my book.

-If my premise is accurate. lol
That's a good story if you are the lawyer for that 7 series owner
And this is why we have insurance. The BMW driver is a fucking psycho and needs locking up. Accidents happen, people freak and get scared and sometimes drive off in panic.

The BMW driver could have killed or injured others. I hope they throw the book at him.

Dang, that's probably at least $6K in damages since both vehicles are worth $3K a piece...

Road rage is not pretty. This twat cut me up forcing me to slam my brakes on and then took it upon himself to then stop dead on a 120km/h motorway with heavy morning traffic.

It was a miracle I was not hit by another car.



Anyone that has a road rage moment is a massive c**t.

I got one as a loaner last time I had to go in for a recall, I could definitely get used to driving one everyday.

According to the news feed:

"The driver was identified as 27-year-old David Zulalyan, of Van Nuys."

So, indeed he was a "bro" :

That's insane What happened next?

I had a similar case last year, but in city traffic. A 50yo lady cut me off from behind a triangle, after which I pressed the horn. She took her car to a full stop, stepped out of the car and started walking angrily towards my car. I decided to step out of the car too, after which she turned 180°, ran back to her car and drove off with her tyres screeching. In these cases, it helps being a larger than average guy I guess

Showed him my pepper spray can and mobile dialling police and he left....it was more the fear of a truck freighter piling into the back of me!!!!

Firearms are not legal in Spain and nor do I ever wish to own one. Worst case scenario, I would have run him over but I'd like to keep my car mint

Still, frightening moment stopped on the fast lane of an 85mph road...

Assuming there was no history to that incident, that guy needs serious help. To get so enraged you flashed your brights at them for cutting you off is unbelievable. That guy must have a serious inferiority complex. He knows he messed up but he can't admit it and the only response to it is to overreact with anger.
