So I'm tooling down the "car pool" lane at 65 mph, which is the posted limit. Recognizing I'm approaching a speed reduction area to 55 mph AND a mobile photo radar section I witnessed earlier in the morning, I begin to slow down to the posted 55. The guy behind me, in a massive "dually" truck (which I couldn't initially identify because all I could see is his hood in my rear-view mirror) is riding my rear bumper. I continue until I approach the 55 zone where he swerves around on the right and cuts in front of me (this is where I noticed it was a dually). He very angrily pumps his arm saluting with his middle digit. I just smiled and continued on. He was about 100 yards in front of me when I saw the flash from the radar camera. He was had at an estimated 75-80.

About 8-10 miles down the road I notice 2 police cars with their red and blues flashing. They had pulled this guy over. I slowly pulled up behind the police cars and exited my car while slowly approaching on the embankment side. One of the officers walked to meet me and while smiling I congratulated him and told him what had occurred 10 minutes ago. I was informed they radared the guy at 77 MPH in a 55. The LEO said it will probably be an expensive day for this guy with 2 radar speeding tickets.

The last thing he said, with a smile on HIS face, before I pulled away....he would inform the guy I was a witness to the radar ticket just to piss him off.

Yessir....paybacks are hell. Gives ya a good feeling all over.

But honestly, these kind of guys eventually get caught for something. And, if this was you or a relative/friend.....sorry, but you had it coming.

 

It's the little victorys that make it a good day.

 

JUSTICE

 

Too funny

 

Love it! I had to deal with an aggressive driver a few months back on my morning commute. He, too, was pulled over a couple of miles further up the interstate. I stopped and, like you, explained what I had experienced earlier. The trooper thanked me for doing the right thing and getting out of this guys way, and then thanked me for stopping and being polite with him. It sure made my day. I know exactly how you feel!

 

Great Karma payback!! I love it when someone gets what they deserve. There is a time and place for speed and shenannigans.... Tailgaiting and weaving are obvious indicators it isn't the time or place! Kudos for keeping your cool and not getting caught up in it yourself! :)

 

One thing you learn fast riding a motorcycle is to look further ahead than the bumper infront of you. People like this just get what the deserve but not often enough. He probably makes a habit of driving like this because he is in a big truck and thinks he can use it like a battering ram. One of my favorite saying which applies here is: Looks like his dogma got run over by his kharma.

 

I always love it when those aggressive drivers get to meet the police on the road. Maybe he will make the TV show "SPEEDERS".

 

Ha ha ha...nice!

Hey Snoopy, Was that his I.Q. he saluted you with?
