This is going to be long sorry....

Well last night i was going to take my kiddos to a fireworks show and i had some punk in a older VW Golf while going down the road swerved when i went to pass to block me back then when we got up to the four lane where there were two lanes for me to pass him and his buddy (Civic) boxed me in and slowed down to 35 in a 55 and he slammed on his brakes in front of me multiple times trying to get me to rear end him, with my children in the vehicle i did not know their intentions, so my military training kicked in and the only way out of the situation was to hit the shoulder and try to pass well he tried to box me over in the shoulder so i hit my brakes and got into the left lane, he then cuts in front of me and slams on his brakes so i moved to the right lane to pass and he side swipes me with his mirror leaving a 2 inch wide mark 3/4 of the way down the side of my truck, with my kids in to vehicle there was no way in hell i was stopping, my wife then called the police department to report it, he then threw change at the side of my vehicle as he was exiting, the officers stopped him down the road and had me meet them at a gas station, after multiple different officers questioned me they wrote me a reckless driving ticket for pulling into the shoulder to exit the situation, even tho no officer saw me commit the offense... i don't know how this is right but i may be wrong

How the hell do they ticket YOU for reckless driving? That is ****ed up man. I don't see how that would stand in court.

I hope it all works out for you and they dismiss that. Not to mention who is going to pay to fix your truck??

Some days I wish I still drove my pos 95 crown vic. Demolition Derby ending with a pit maneuver. But with kids in the vehicle I'm glad no one was hurt. Paint can be fixed.

Did the punks get a ticket for anything?

As far as i could tell by over hearing the officers he got reckless driving, hit and run and speeding ticket. I don't know if he got a reckless endangerment or not I guess I'll find out when I go to court on Aug 9

You should have just hit his ass and kept going. With that giant power wagon you could have knocked his ass right off the road.

Thats some BS. Makes me wonder what they would have done if you had just started pushing the civic and pitted the Golf? Any idea why they started to f*ck with you??

Was it dark out when this happened? Only thing I can think of is the guys were pist off because maybe your headlights were "blinding" them. I was towing my ATVs over to my dad's and had one in the bed and two on the trailer of my 1500... headlights were up quite a bit and I was constantly getting brighted because people thought i had my high beams on. I had 3 people *** with me in a 60 mile stretch. I wasn't tailgating them, just passing them on a 4 lane road and they change lanes to stay in front of me and slam on the brakes or let me pass and then run up on me with their high beams on. I finally killed the headlights and turned on the fogs because I was entering gun country...

So you did all this maneuvering with your children in the truck? Good thing you didn't get cited for endangerment on top of it

i dont know why people in cars like that drive like assholes. your truck is way bigger they should be looking out for you. def take that ticket to court theres no way it will hold up. theres no witnesses so anything the cop says against you is heresay anyway. the police just writes everyone tickets involved when they arent present too see what happened. did you get any of the guys insurance information who hit you?
