I had a similar experience. I was on my way to dinner with friends. On a long stretch of road I travel daily I pulled out to pass some slower vehicles. It was a marked passing zone. Nothing was coming in the other direction. As I got next to the last vehicle (the slow guy in a Toyota pickup). He veered over forcing my car into the sholder on the opposite side of the road--f'n whack job! Then he tailgated me all the way to the restaurant. I dropped my wife off at the front door where our friends were waiting and went to park the car. Then the guy screams around me and pulls his truck sideways in front of my car and procedes to scream at me that I could have killed his pregnant wife if she was coming in the other direction. I just looked at him like WTF are you talking about? I could have also hit a UFO if it was coming in the other direction, but neither your wife or a UFO were. If they were, I wouldn't have passed. And I guess my wife and I are despensible and that's why you forced us off the f'n road? The guy was standing over my driver's side window just screaming all kinds of stuff. I just looked at him out the window and said; "bad day at your shit job, huh?" which made him scream all the louder. He also had that vein-popping-out-of-the-forehead thing going on. At that point I just made the "yeah-whatever" face and made little duck-quacking gestures with my hand and braced for the inevitable punch in the face. Fortunately there was a large crowd gawking at this point so nothing else happened. I was nervous the whole time at dinner that when I went back to my car in the parking lot the tires would be slashed or it would be keyed or something, but the guy evidently wised up.
