Check out this @(*#$&

Read the comment he left me in one of my dashboard cam vids. The one that the Semi-truck nearly sideswipes me. He claims that its my fault that I didn't slow down FAST enough and I wanted to get crushed into the center divider.

Had to LOL at his comment. It's like driving into a tree, and then telling the cop it was the tree's fault for getting in your way...

It looks to me that you did all the right things. You did slow down and use the free space to your left. Slowing down faster might have gotten you rear ended.

But, although I believe that you intended no offense with your title, as the father of a developmentally disabled child, I would prefer you use another word to describe bad drivers.

This site has had its moments as well . It's a shame the internet is used as a place for individuals to abuse and distribute hate toward others . A fiend without a face .

Thanks for the link. I had a altercation with a gal with major road rage and she took my mirror off. Due to her showing cleavage the cop gave me the ticket even though she ran me off the road. This would have cleared everything up in court for me.

I appreciate the link too. I also had a road rage incident. I took plate numbers of people going by while I was pinned and one nice older couple who had been behind both of us the whole time was willing to tell the police what happened. The other people contacted by the police were not willing to talk. With that camera I would have been all set if nobody was willing to talk or if I didn't have a pen in the car.

please stop trying to be offended. This is the real world and it is pointless to go looking to be offended everywhere.

It is so nice to know someone else feels this way. So tired of everyone walking around expecting the world to coddle them. It's not the responsibility of everyone else to make sure your feelings are never hurt. It's really not.

But being that this is a forum that has the luxury of moderation and all that, I can see why he politely asked the OP not to use that word. Things run a lot better on here if we all make a small bit of effort to be kind to one another. Especially when not using a word like that doesn't require all that much sacrifice.

Please stop trying to dig sh!t up. The man asked for something and the other guy agreed and apologized. End of story.
