I was on Aurora earlier and some guy going way over the limit clipped someone changing lanes. he clearly didn’t notice so I slowed down to block him and try to get his plates (I think the person next to me did too). he started following me around, flashing and changing lanes with me, before going around me. I finally got his plates once he was in front, but he then was trying to brake hard in front of me. I tried to go around and disengage, taking a side road, but he got back onto following me.
he pulled up to me at a stoplight, rolled down the window, and threatened me with a knife. I told him he had clipped someone and had left the scene and that I had his plates. he kept denying it and blaming me for “being an asshole and slowing him down.” he told me to pull over into a parking lot to “get fucked up by him” but I just drove off as he went in. I went back to where the person had been clipped and gave them the plates.
I wish I had recorded the driving and the encounter so that he could get more than just leaving the scene of the accident. He had to be going 80-85. I think a dash cam/rear view cam would have caught the accident and the speeding, both before and after the accident. Going to be getting a dash cam/rear cam in case something like this happens again.
