A few years back my wife and I were pulling out from a local restaurant and admittedly I failed to properly judge the speed of an oncoming car. He had to slam on his brakes and then proceeded to tailgate me with his brights on and swerving around behind me. He was pissed and I clearly understood why. Anyway he passed me flipping me off and thought that would be it. Well we came to a four way stop and he was in front of me. At the stop he exits the car and starts walking toward us. Instinctively I went into protect my wife mode. I got out of the car while thinking what my next move would be as far as taking this guy to the ground and maybe giving him a little beating. Once he saw me exit my car he stopped, lifted his shirt to show me the handgun he had in his waistband. This was a young, WHITE kid in a small town who was willing to potentially kill someone over a traffic dispute, one that I wholeheartedly admit 100% accountability about. It was unnerving to say the least. I put my hands up and retreated to my car. It’s not worth it to get in these road rage scraps.
