Have any of you been getting people who feel the need to express themselves about how much they hate the Hummer people, Almost everymorning there is this bike/hippy dick head that drives a beat up old land crusier/or jeep looking thing and every time he flips me the bird makes really rude jestours with his mouth the whole way to work...this morning I finally gave him the bird right back but hes really phsyco. He screams in the cab of his truck the whole time and jumps around like he is very angry. I dont even know who the fool is but he drives the same way i go to work and then while im making a left into the hospital for work he goes straight and his tripping me out. He yells what a piece of **** the hummer is and that they all are a joke......Right when he sees me pull out of the side street his head turn and its on!!!!Im not going to change the way I take to work but I have been trying to back off and drive slower but then he does the same just to make sure I see him....I wounder if he acts this way when he sees a guy driving one or is it just that a girl has a truck that would stomp his!!!

He is just a jealous POS that drives a POS. Just smile, laugh and wave. If he thinks it bothers you, he will keep on doing it. Now if he is taking it to the extreme that it makes you nervous and you truly do fear what he might do, maybe take a pic and pass it one to the police.

Good Idea SFOX!
I'd take the camera every day & take pics of him cursing, flipping you off, and get a photo of his license plate. When you have several days documented that he is harassing you, go file a complaint with the police department. They will have it documented in case he tries to damage your vehicle. Also, find out where he works.
I think you find out his name & where he lives by his license plate. You may be able to call the DMV and find out who the vehicle is registered to.

I strongly agree about the police. This guy needs a serious talking to from a cop before he does something dangerous. Perhaps a cop could arrange to be "passing by" while the jerk is doing his thing one morning. You shouldn't be part of the confrontation.
People have been killed just making eye contact on LA freeways. And in Phoenix, he could be carrying.

Never hurts, always hurts...
And yes, I'm from Canada!
Seriously though, from the sounds of it this guy must be demented. From the description of his car, it's guaranteed it pollutes more than any Hummer.
Normally I'd say just ignore him, but this guy is crossing too many lines.

SFOX is right on the money here. There is no need to take abuse from this person. Document it and provide it to the police. You probably have a cell phone (who doesn't? ). Don't be afraid to use it. Let the police know that you are presently being harassed by an agressive, irate driver and that you feel that you are in danger. Let them take care of the rest. Thats what they get paid for.

I agree, that's what the police are paid for, and in many states, aggessive driving is 6+ points.
I, personally, have not had these problems, other than the *itch in the Indiana rest stop.

It's a shame, but years ago I arrested some guys in Phoenix who could have solved your problem
But be careful, many of these type of people can be very dangerous when provoked, and I don't mean damage to the Hummer that can be repaired.

I agree, just take a video camera and get him on video and get it all on tape including his tag of his car/truck.
Let him meet bubba in jail and find out what "tree huggin" in jail is all about.
