Handling road rage (being followed)

What would you do/where would you go if someone was following you while you were driving?

Background: We were out and about today and someone started rage road following us (all because we honked at them when they didn’t go on green). They followed us for a few miles, including numerous turns and lane changes. They even cut other drivers off very dangerously to stay behind us.

I called 311 who transferred me to the least helpful 911 operator. I told her what was happening and asked to be put in contact with someone at the closest police station (Lamplight Village). She ordered me to take 4 turns to make a square to see if they’re still following us. I told her we know they’re following us.

Her reasoning for this was there aren’t officers at the police station and this will give them time to dispatch an officer to catch up with us. This makes no sense. Just have them meet us a the station???

Question- if this happens again (hope for the best, plan for the worst), what do y’all recommend doing? Is going to a fire station a better bet than the police station?

TLDR – Would you recommend going to a fire station if someone is road rage following you? I was told the police station doesn’t have police at it.
