I don't understand where this type of road rage comes from. I kinda understand someone acting like an ass if you accidentally (or purposely) cut them off or something..
 Has happened to me a few times. A twin turbo supra did that to me but on a two lane road. Would "let" me pass after going 5 under the limit, only to floor it and not let me merge back in, even if I tried to get back in behind him. I yelled at him "What's your problem? I'm in a damn Yaris what are you trying to prove??" Guy was in his 40s too, not sure what was going on in his head besides trying to make me drive off the road or into oncoming traffic. Now I drive with my droid in dash-cam mode.

This might be hard for you to understand, because the other guy started it. He was wrong. If a cop saw what he did, he gets cited.
If a cop saw what you did (trying to pass on the right) you get cited. Yes he was an asshole, but you played into his game. You left yourself vulnerable to a ticket. You left yourself vulnerable to liability if there was an accident. (maybe no one witnesses his behavoir) If you were riding a motorcycle and made this video and showed it to your motorcycle friends, they would have been all over you. We motorcyclists all know perfectly well certain members of the motoring public do dumb, illegal, and dangerous things. You cant allow that to affect what you do. Which in this case should be to get away from this idiot before you get killed or seriously injured. Im trying to help you here, not find fault. Even not on a motorcycle, the smart thing to do is get out of a situation like this as quickly and gracefully as possible. Its not worth a ticket. Its not worth an accident.

Some people need to be shot on the spot, no questions asked.

Road rage doesn't happen in a vacuum. It's NEVER anyone's job to play "police" with other vehicles, except the actual police. That said, I would have seriously considered a Pitt maneuver on his ass...

Remember in Los Angeles, a turn signal is only there to tell someone behind you to speed up.
I miss my Expedition, no one fucked with me!! The GTR doesnt even get driven in town, only to go out of town!!
