Rediculous Xmas Driver
This morning my girlfriend and I were headed to the Cherry Hill Mall to get a last minute gift for her grandfather. We're waiting in a long line of traffic on this rd called church rd to get onto Rt. 38 when this guy comes out of nowhere down the wrong side of the road in his mountaineer. He's hauling ass, forcing oncoming traffic off the road and of course wants to get in front of me. Worst of all, he has a woman holding a baby in the passenger seat! I'm like hell no and i pull up so he can't get in front of me and i end up bumping the car in front of me. I tried to get the plates but I couldn't see them because he didn't have a front one so I move up into the circle and stop next to the guy i bumped to apologize since he drove away. I roll down the window and the guy in the mountaineer is cursing me off from two lanes over! Then he holds a brick out the window and he was going to throw it at my car! It was absolutely ridiculous. I called the CH police but they couldn't do anything because all i had was a vague description and no plate number.

The crazies are all out. I live around the corner from the cherry hill mall and I often try to avoid going near it.
That intersection with Pleasant Valley, Church St, and Rt. 38 can get hectic.

i'm sorry to hear that, but remember, there are two sides to every story. for all we know that baby could have stopped breathing (i know that doesn't really explain the brick but just playing devil's advocate)

church road. yes there could always be a side to a situation but there are ways to handle situations. the first thing any professional will say is be calm.

the weeks before christmas and esp christmas eve are the worst possible times to be on the road. All the impatient idiots are out and they will kill you trying to save 5 mins

I just cant believe how ridiculous the whole situation was. And it wasn't even at the mall/near a hospital, it was just someone being a macho idiot because he had an suv. At one point I really thought he was going to try and drive over my hood, but in a way I WISH he would've because he definitely would've got caught then.

I had a cab driver from new york, a few days ago, for some reason all the way down in long branch. He Passed me on the right as a light turned green on a single lane road, and then nearly force me off the road to move in back in front of me. I started following him and he ran for his life to the parkway...luckily the 924 is a bit faster than a cab and i caught up to him and got to flip him off a few times and yell at him. But he was seriously speeding on 36 and i still caught up to him at the red light.
