So me and my wife got off work today and was headed to the bank. The bank is in a one way street so when my wife went to turn, this car driving the wrong way drove right at her, she stopped and layed on the horn. The other driver threw his hands up and got out of the car and aproached my wife’s drivers side yelling and screaming.
I was in the passenger seat reclined because I had a massive headache, when I heard the comotion I looked up and instantly got defensive and coincidentally pissed. I opened the passenger door and stepped out, the deranged driver saw me opening the door and came charging at me. That was until I stepped out of the car and yelled what his problem was. Now I’m no small person and I think I took him by surprise when I screamed at him what his problem was. At this point a bunch of people from the bus terminal across the street was watching and someone from his car screamed at him to get back in the car. I taunted him briefly and he backed away saying he didn’t want any trouble, I yelled back that it was OK for him to go all psycho on my wife but once he saw me he backed down. It just made me even madder, I threw my shoulders forward like I was gonna go after him and he ran back to his car.
Luckily at this point a cop showed up and asked what was going on, stupidly the guy tried to run almost hitting the cop in the process. He didn’t get far as another officer pulled up just in time in front of the driver and he was promptly arrested. The cop questioned us and asked to give a statement along with the people who saw what was going on. Almost an hour later we got to head home.
On the drive home I had to calm my wife because she was shaken up and scared, had I not been with her what could have happened. At that point she told me I need to buy her a dash cam, so come next Friday, funds permitting I will be ordering her one. Couldn’t order one today as I just payed rent.
Folks it’s a scary world we live in and any sense of security that can provide verifiable proof is an asset. Stay safe out there.
