Well this is a little story/rant of when I was driving back from my girl’s house in Eden, to get back to my humble abode in Blasdell. It starts off like any other drive home, remote start my 4.0L and let that kitten warm up.
So I get into my Jeep and pull out of her driveway. Being that it is about ~10pm its pretty dark out. I have a set of fog lights I generally put on along with my high beams, as the roads out in Eden don’t have street lights, and the deer are plentiful. I generally shoot up Sission Highway (75) to South Park (62) then to Camp (5) then take Southwestern (20) back to South Park (62) to my house.
Once I get onto 62 from 75 and start going into hamburg I generally turn off my fog lights, this is for two reasons. One being there is usually ample light to see, and 2 being so I don’t blind other drivers. So I swing a left onto Camp in the Village with nothing interesting happening. Life is good.
As I’m driving down Camp some asshat in an older Intergra pulls out right in front of me. Ok no big deal, maybe he didn’t see me. It was from a side street, he made a right onto camp right in front of me. Note: He didn’t stop at the stop sign.
No biggie shit happens. I keep driving and he goes into the passing lane when it turns into two lanes. I’m doing about 45 and actually start to pass him a little. I notice that the car is full of 3 to 4 teens. Ok what ever, no beef. As we keep driving there is a slower moving car in the passing lane. As we continue to drive he speeds up just slightly and cuts me off super hard. Now this pisses me off a little more.
So in order for me to teach him a lesson what shall I do? Oh I know, I will blind his ass. So I throw on my highs and all my lights. His car is lit up like a beacon. Success, Right?
Well I guess in his infinite wisdom he decides to brake check me. I don’t know if he noticed or not but I was a good ~5 cars behind him. I wasn’t tailing him at all. He locked up all 4 tires and I braked maybe slightly faster then usual to stop. He then floors it, but I floor it into the next lane and pass him. Its funny that my lifted Jeep out ran his siqqq jdm race car.
This is what really pisses me off.
What if I was tailing him and he brake checked me so. It would be his ~2500lb car full of his friends getting hit by my ~5000lb Jeep at maybe 45-50 mph. I guess it would have been worth killing his friends to show me that he meant business.
Oh well. I remember when I was young and dumb, so initially this is why I wasn’t mad. He had to continue to be a jerk off though.
If I had on my 1/4 off road bumper which I plan on getting and did hit him, it would have been all over.
I was temped to follow him to get his plate and stop to tell his mommy and daddy on him.
O well. I hope all the youth of today aren’t like him.
I guess I shouldn’t have thrown on my lights to piss him off more, but how much shit do you have to take? I kind of wish I hit him, drove away and got off free, just to ruin his piece of shit car.
Oh on a second thought, it seems almost every time I drive through the village something stupid such as this or an old person driving 5mph run into me. I have even had old people rear end me at red lights doing <5mph and their reason was they didn’t seem me. A lifted huge ass Jeep stopped at a signal. God I hate Hamburg. I’m moving to the sticks.
Cliffs: Car pulled out in front of me, cut me off, I blind him, he brake checks me, I fear me driving right over his car killing all inside…/end rant.
