I was waiting to get on the AZ51 southbound freeway from Highland Avenue after work today, and some guy in a work van tried to merge into my turning lane as he was right next to me. I honked at him, and drove ahead. We were parked at the light for about 30 seconds with him right behind me, and he inches up to my bumper and hits me. I get out of my car, see that his bumper is resting against mine, and get back into my car. There was a closure up ahead, and a couple officers controlling traffic. I flag one of them down, and the officer tells us to pull ahead. The other officer gets both of our information, and takes our paperwork to her SUV. She comes back with accident exchange forms, with both of our information on them.

I got home a while ago, and called my insurance. I filed a claim, because he took some paint off of my bumper. I then gave the police station a call, explaining how worried I was at this person's behavior. It really worries me that someone would willingly drive their van into someone else's car because they were honked at. Now this guy has my information, and I am worried he will come after me. He really didn't seem stable. Nobody that does what he did is...

What should I do now? The repair cost is likely minimal, and the officer never really said it was his fault, although he rear ended me while at a red light at a mile an hour or two. I think he tried to say it wasn't his fault, but I filed the claim anyway. I'm waiting to hear back from the officer to see what she has to say about me being worried about this guy's sanity.

I hate this world we live in. Humankind is truly baffling at times.

I was driving home the other day and cruising along mellow, behind a pickup. I had at least a car length and half or so between us and it was a 35mph road. No big deal. He starts brake checking and I honestly thought he just wasn't sure where he was going. Then I see him waving his arms around in a very irate fashion. I'm all WTF? We both make a right turn and I move over to the center lane after the turn and he swerves into me. At this point I was watching him closely so I avoided the collision and sped past him. He tried again to clip me. At the next light, I was making a left and he was caught further back. I was waiting for him to get out and come after me.

Some people are wound too tight. I really hate living in the city most of the time.

Having a .40 cal soothes a lot of worry.

I rarely have road rage until I got to tucson where some people don't know how to drive or don't care about their cars or other people cars (No offense to tucson people). I had people cut me off, almost side swiping me, and randomly get flipped off for no apparent reason. I miss driving in Colorado
