Could end badly
 
Around here, way too many people armed for me to get out of my car for a verbal confrontation over the right of way with anyone. If someone else gets out of their car and comes towards me, I will stay in my car and have my own weapon in my hand out of sight. I am a big guy too and try to remember that scaring people could get me shot.

The driving here is too awful for me to play chicken with anyone. Passed a bad accident scene last night--a PW Z hit in the side. Any day I get home in one piece was a successful days driving no matter how many times someone cut in front of me or took "my" right of way.

But I do like to honk at cell phone yappers and watch them swivel all over looking to see what they did wrong . . . because they weren't paying enough attention to have any idea what they did.

I know of too many car jackings or robberies starting off this way. Glad your situation ended peacefully and with a gift to bury the hatchet.

LOL, that's why I did it in the most peaceful of neighborhoods, LOL

It's easy, don't walk up to my window in an aggressive manner. If you walk up with your hands where I can see them and stay out of arms reach while having a smile on your face and saying "Hello, I have something I need to talk to you about" then you won't get the anti-carjack treatment!:tiphat:

LOL!!!


This is true, while living in Texas, I will say that I did pull my gun out on someone... Not something I'm proud of, but I do get it.

Oh yeah, I agree, in TX, Houston especially, I get cut off, no problem, someone driving like a prick, no problem, I'll let them pass, or pull over and let them go.


There is a time and place for everything, and having lived in the South, I know the rules of living there. Especially me being the Iranian... Yeahhhhh, that doesn't usually fly... But again, time and place for everything...
