What is with people? The harassment began just after high school and hasn't let up. I have no idea who these people are.

Of course one would wonder upon reading this whether or not I'm just paranoid. I'll give an example of how I know I'm not and why. Our house is off an expressway. Needless to say, all roads intersecting that area are busy almost all the time. It's relatively dangerous and consistently busy. I cross what is the main intersection of that expressway on my way home from playing frisbee golf and, for the third time in a few years, a person leaves their lane and does whatever it takes to bumper tag me. No, I don't know who they are. This van with a girl (the driver) and guy (prob in their early 40's) do a 180 in this heavy traffic to do a U-Turn. She didn't even turn sharp enough to make the U-turn despite the fact that this road is a three laner. She shifted between forward and backwards to make the turn at least 3 times. It was preposterous. The passenger too wasn't to be bothered either, he barely made the effort to lift a finger to point the fact that there are 200 other cars in the vicinity. What they were trying to prove I don't know. This was the third event like this. The other two just as blatant and obvious, just as necessary, just as reckless, and just as appalling. I need to have a camera ready. What is with people?

*Please disregard Title, I wrote that with the intention of writing about a different topic at first.


I don't know what to do, should I go to the police?

Have dashcams on every time you drive. If there is no CCTV on that intersection and you have no proof going to the police wont yield any results.

Ive heard a lot of bad things about driving culture in the States. Though driving in Eastern Europe is bad enough, people just cruising down the left lane on a highway in my country is basically unthinkable. .

I think this is what happens when you give 16 year olds cars and no formal training for driving a car. 'their parents will teach them'. Thats just insane, for every one normal person there are five idiots that dont know anything passing on bad habits to their offspring

Driving culture is bad everywhere as far as I can tell. People in my country like to say that we're the best drivers, but the amount of times I've been almost killed by those same people since I got my driving licence points otherwise. The fact that I'm still alive is just sheer luck and changing out my brakes every 15 000 km. Learning to drive here isn't much better really, you take 25-30 hours of practice with an instructor and then you're set to drive.

And if you do get dash cam footage they'll leap all over that shit as it's easy and fast ways to improve their numbers for the month.

I've observed quite a few driving cultures and I would say that the British driving culture is far superior to anywhere else. People actually do generally follow the Highway code, at least whilst it is not late at night anyways. Americans are the worst I have ever seen in a "developed" country. Italian and French drivers get a bad rep, but Americans seem to have to combined the sheer arrogance of the French with the anger of the Italians with total lack of spacial awareness or care to pedestrians whatsoever.

Anyways, no you aren't paranoid, you should watch your back the next time you play frisbee golf. It's got nothing to do with that you are probably slowing down to make a turn that people don't often make on a busy road.

Thanks for responding. "Driving culture". See, I've lived in this town for decades, and grew up here, it's harder for me to judge things because of this. I've known a lot of people. In other words, say you just moved a new city - you're clear on the fact that you know like 3 people in total in this new town. Well, someone cuts you off while driving. Well, for some reason it's not that hard to not take it personally. Here, I'm not sure if I know them.

Thanks for response.
