I know there has been several posts regarding road rage and traffic, but I wanted to share my story of what happened this morning (around 7:45 AM). On my way into the office, I typically take 183 all the way and get off on the 35N exit. On the frontage road (Anderson Ln), I noticed a small white sedan going really slow and a lot of people passing them. There was a big truck behind them that was getting really close to the back of the sedans car. The sedan continues to drive super slow, brake checking the truck every so often. We pull up to the light (Anderson Ln and 35 Frontage rd) and come to a stop, and the man in the truck gets out of his car and pulls a gun out and starts to point it at the sedan. I was in the lane directly next to the truck, so I watched all this happen in what felt like slow motion. Thankfully, the light turned green, the white sedan sped off, and I continued on my path to work. Got to work and was a little rattled but thankfully I, and everyone around me, was fine. Just a little shook up that someone got so overwhelmed and frustrated with their emotions that they decided the next best course of action was using a gun on someone.
Everyone, please please be safe and drive safe and don’t try to piss people off by brake checking or going ridiculously slow. You do not know the person that is on the other end and don’t know what they might do.
