Para, he was at my side the whole time.
My H2 is bigger and faster -- there is no way I would allow him to get in front of me, much less stop & allow him to pullover and do gawd-knows-what.
When he was reaching for his cellphone, I was concerned about what he was going to pull out, and flashes of that H1 guy that leveled his robbers did cross my mind.
I was never angry, more genuinely confused that he was so enraged? That's why I thought that he must just be another Hummer hater, and that I should pull away from the mad man.
Very pleased that my H2 is as responsive as I want it to be...
</div></BLOCKQUOTE>No way was intending to suggest you should have done something different. Each situation one encounters has to be evaluated and you just hope you make the right decisions in case this one time it turns out the psycho bitch with the bullet-shooting vibrator goes after you because you have chrome flames on the side of your truck.
Seriously, it goes against your natural instinct but is a good option because you are controlling the situation. The faster you are moving, the more you are having to try to keep an eye on him and other obstacles, calling 911, the more distractions and the less control you have on the situation. Slowing things down and gaining an understanding of the other persons intent all the while keeping them in easy view is keeping it controlled to the extent you can. This will help to keep the incident between the two of you and not include innocents.
Avoiding the escalation is the key, doing so without continuing down the road is ideal. Keeping the other person at a disadvantage to you is a plus and covering your ass in case you have to act on their aggressiveness is a necessity.
