While driving my 911 to work, I was passed by an SUV hauling ass this morning. She was going much faster than me, but I caught up when she got stuck at a few red lights down the road. A few blocks later, we turned right onto a four lane, she went wide and I stayed right. It was a long up hill and after 20-30 yards I started to go around her on the right. She saw me going around and started coming over. She was looking at me in her side view, I saw her looking I know she saw me. I started braking and getting right, and laid on the horn. She then came quickly all the way over, completely cut me off, and slammed on her brakes. Then she took off. My side view was folded back and the right side of my car is covered in mud/debris where I had to get off the road. I took off after her, calling 911. She got caught at another red light, and I pulled into a church parking lot at the corner, and motioned to her while on the phone. She pulled into the parking lot and played ignorant. I noticed that every single body panel on her car was dented. Her bumpers were all tweaked, her front one was hanging off on one side, and she was missing a parking and a head light. As we were waiting for the police, she goes from total denial of what had transpired, to becoming irate & very aggressive. Calls her husband and tells me that he is coming down there to take care of this. We wait about 20 mins, and nobody ever shows up. Since there is no damage to my car (I popped the mirror back into place) we decided to leave. I was hoping that an officer would listen to both sides of the story, (technically she left the scene of the “contact”) and let her have it. I do have all her info. Instead of feeling lucky, I’m feeling very uneasy about the whole thing. I’m feeling as if I should have just hauled off and cracked her freaking nose while she was sitting in her car, but I know that is not right. What she did was intentional, and we both knew it.

I have sensed that other drivers becoming very aggressive whenever I drive my 911, and my girlfriend is starting to notice it too. Other cars seem to accelerate much quicker from red lights than they should under normal driving conditions, lane changes are quicker and seem to be closer to my car, etc….And it seems to be getting worse. This incident is just driving it home for me. Ya’ll be careful and attentive out there.
