Mazdaspeed 3, True Red
So about 20 minutes ago, (like 1:15 a.m.) I was headed to Safeway. (A grocery store out here in california) I was almost there, and was making a right turn at a stop light. All the sudden, I notice some dude walking on the sidewalk, and I was like "whatever." Then he walks into the middle of the street, starts waving his hands, and running at my car. Now, normally, I would just be like, "okay, theres something wrong," but the dude was about 10 feet from a gas station, so it was a little sketchy when he began approaching me. Thats when I decided to get the **** out. I threw it in reverse(he was blocking my car) and then he starting sprinting after me. All the while im at like 4500 rpms trying to keep it straight in reverse, and not to mention shitting my pants. He keeps running, so I turn the wheel, get it stopped in the other direction, and put it in 1st and just take off. He continued to sprint after the car for about 100 yards, and then I could no longer see him. Called the 5-0, and they sent someone out, but honestly, What the ****? What was this guy doing?

Thoughts?
...anyways, sorry If I wasted your time, but Im a little freaked out right now. Luckily I live like 4 miles from the store, so he aint finding my house, but it was scary.
 
Hahhaaha, he sprinted after your car? I'm assuming he didn't look injured? That's a little creepy. Were there any other cars around?

yeas. Soo creepy. No other cars around, but it was at a huge intersection, meaning there were two 24 hr. gas stations and a huge 24 hr. grocery store. Using my intellect, lol, I automatically assumed if there was an issue, he would choose those first. I think he may have been trying to steal the MS3. Luckily i didnt stall, got the BRAND NEW TIRES to squeal out of first, little *** made me slip the clutch in order to get away. He literally started a flat sprint as soon as I began backing up
 
Yeah, sounds like you might have gotten lucky.

its weird too, because the area i live in one of the nicest in northern california. Like this s*** doesnt happen. To describe the area, I have had a maserati MC12 drive past my house, seen a bugatti veyron in town, someone In my area owns a Lamborghini Reventon, someone has a Gemballa Mirage GT(Carerra GT) And today I saw a Brand New MBZ SL 65 AMG Black Edition followed by a ferrari 430 Scuderia...so yeah. lol. This was odd.
 
Some people are flat out nuts. Some criminals are brazen. Sounds like he wanted your car. Smart move on your part to GTFO there!

Dude is lucky that you appear to be a sensible guy as someone else may of just ran his ******* ass over or pumped some hot lead in to him.
 
Zombieland

Hey, this is really weird! So I'm leaving my friend's house in Walnut Creek after midnight, (just watched Zombieland on Blu-ray). I'm thinking I'll go to Safeway off Stone Valley and get a six pack and jerky. I exit and head towards the store and suddenly swerve left to keep from running over this guy walking in the middle of the street. Freaked me out so I turn left at the light, away from the store and get back on the freeway to go to the Dublin Safeway a much better lighted commercial area and "voila", no zombies!
 
No chance you had just run over his foot as he was trying to jaywalk a few yards back & he was trying to get your insurance info? lol

I think after you've been in a few bar fights, looked at sharp objects being pointed at you, had a cap or two popped at your car driving thru certain areas etc then you won't be so freaked out when a homeless guy wants to borrow a quarter

Except homeless guys don't usually chase you down the street.

Except if that was a scene from a movie the guy would have been chasing you because he was trying to warn you about the crazy he saw in your back seat with a butcher knife.
 
This is so ironic, because I saw this guy driving a mazdaspeed 3 and I wanted to congratulate him for not buying a Golf, and as i tried to walk over to his car he threw it in reverse and sped away!
