BillsFanNC Posted December 13, 2006 Posted December 13, 2006 To make a long story short, I was seriously injured in a car accident in September. It was caused by a careless / wreckless driver. I used to be irked by these types of drivers, but now I have less than zero patience for them. Fast forward to this morning as I'm driving into work I'm cut off by one of those "weavers" that very nearly caused another wreck. I'm so pissed off right now I'm shaking. Road rage doesn't even begin to describe what I'm feeling. My question is, I have this guys license plate number. Does anyone know how I can legally find out who this guy is with this info? He needs a "talking to"

I guess if they get more than one complaint..that is a "trend" and they will look into it! So, i would start there!

Holly Springs NC has more friggin cops than anywhere else I have ever seen in my entire life! NC, you should definitely turn those Nazis loose on this guy...

NC, you should definitely turn those Nazis loose on this guy... 865252[/snapback] You are right, the fastest growing town in NC does have a large police presence! Unfortunately, this happened in RTP on Davis drive. In fact if any fellow wallers / RTP commuters know a guy that drives a white Audi A4 send me a PM.

People like that really piss me off too. Drivers around here (Southern?) are atrocious. I used to get the same way but I've learned to just laugh at 'em. Take pride in the fact that you're right. Report it if you can, but don't deliver the talking to yourself!
Chef Jim Posted December 13, 2006 Posted December 13, 2006 This is why most of us in CA carry guns in our cars. You can bet here in CA he would have gotten a "talking to."

I used to get pissed when people would cut me off. Last year some guy got me so bad I ended up hanging half outside my window dropping F bombs. I pointed to the parking lot, and the driver showed me the handle to his pistol threw the window. What was he going to do shoot me? What was I going to do beat some sense into him for cutting me off? Neither would changed the fact that people in OHIO can't drive worth shi*.

Traffic wise I'm sure many places exist. But what place actually has a merging lane for the merging lane before you merge onto the freeway? We also have 5 MPH reduced speed on about 75% of the roads and freeways (compared to Michigan). Old people and the ghetto children turn that into about a 15mph reduction. Marijuana turns that into about a 20mph reduction because everybody in this city is high. Am I approaching complete insanity yet?

Am I approaching complete insanity yet? 865828[/snapback] Yet... I-80 on that stretch is littered with State Police... I don't understand why they let lanes merge for construction... Give ample arrows or what not to get over to the one lane... Then put a big barrel right in the middle of the lane... Everybody else who merged early and was nice to their fellow drivers could then get on everybody else's arse in the open lane (ie: tailgate)... You know what would happen? The lane that is ending would come to a stand still and the working lane would flow right by... I love how people get aggressive at yield signs... I don't think they know that a yield means stop if other traffic is approaching... Same as a stop sign. How people really hate to yield... My sister is a classic... She thinks it is God giving right to screw people over in traffic... Her exact words... "I am woman, they will let me in."

If I'm going anywhere it's usually N back to Michigan so I’m on those freeways. Your point about the merging is so true. That's the problem with the road system, everything's set up to make you think. People are not overly bright. Bad things happen.

Still go back a few times a year, I heard it was horrible. I used to take M-14 to 94 every time I went back and fourth from Kalamazoo. I'm glad I didn't have to deal that BS.

"I am woman, they will let me in." 865884[/snapback] No I won't. I don't even let my own cow-orkers cut in. I've always wanted to get some bumper stickers printed up saying "Warning! I cut people off" or something similar so if I ever see those bad drivers again in a parking lot, I'd put one on their vehicle.

I'd maybe flip them off or curse them and that would be it. It's when one cost me my vision in my left eye, gave me a brutal scar that extends from above my left eye and down my cheek and has me looking at the likelihood of a total knee replacement before I'm 50 that has me out for blood. I know full well that it wouldn't slove anything, but oh how therapeutic it would be to rain blows down on one of these a-holes.
