so i got attacked while driving my MSP

[MSPM1cheLe]

it was 7am and i was driving to school. this dude in a pathfinder cut me off so I honked at him and then he flipped me off and slammed on his brakes.. but with the extreme handling and quick down shift to second gear (hehe.. sorry i just love my mazda, also its good to add a little humor to something that actually was pretty traumatic... youll see keep reading) i was able to manuver around the left side of him and back in front of him. as we quickly approached the yellow light i decided to give him a taste of his own medicine by, well of course, not going threw the yellow light. so i slammed on my brakes (just as he did but mine was for legal purposes ) and then he dodged me by going into the right lane beside me. as i put the car in nuetral i see the big mexican get out of his car as he tries to open my passenger door. THANK GOD FOR THE AUTOMATIC LOCKS on the MSP. becuase as you owners might know, they lock knob doesnt go all the way down so by just the glance at it i couldnt tell if it was unlocked or locked. as i watched him try to open the locked door as he cussed at me i hear him say "I'M GUNNA **** YOU UP" and then i see his fist hit my window....

as he noticed my wonderful MSP was a forcefield that he could not penetrate and nothing was going to let it stop protecting my life, he got back in to his car.

i was pretty much in shock but i managed to dial 311 (the non emergency fone #) and explain my situation, who then they transeferred me to 911 (i didnt know it was an emergency being as i wasnt hurt or anything).. but i turned in his license plate # his car his appearance and everything else.

so yeah, that was probably the scariest thing yet. i think i love my car about 754928374392374 more times that i did before. it was scary though and sad. :/ i guess he didnt really care i was just a 17 year old girl either. LAME. people are too craxy, and my MSP too a punch for me. i think i should buy it a new performance part to thank it. haha


moral of the story.. my MSP saved my life.

I had somethin' pretty similar happen to me this past summer.

Was drivin' from Bristol, PA into Burlington, NJ .. and was nearly run off the road by some older-ish woman driving a huge Dodge Ram. I tailgated her for a lil' bit -- y'know, just to satisfy my annoyance -- and then I was ready to call the whole thing done. But she tried to run me off the road -- literally -- two times and tried to get me to rear-end her three times. As odd as it sounds, it was the traffic that saved me from not gettin' into a serious accident, as the woman couldn't actually force me into the ditch with so many other cars around.

However, upon both of us pulling up to a red light -- with me trailing behind about four car lengths, cause I was genuinely frightened by this point -- she slammed on the brakes. Got out of the truck. Started walking back towards where I was pulling up to -- in the MIDDLE of a six-lane highway. I stopped, quickly rolled up my windows and locked my doors, and just kinda blinked at her as she stood outside my driver's window and screamed and cursed. And I could've even stomached that .. except that when she turned around to walk back to her truck, she punched my hood.

Dude. You don't touch my car. And you REALLY don't punch my hood when it's a brand-new carbon fiber one.

I opened my car door and stood up, fully prepared to walk around my door and jump her, when a cop screamed up behind my car. Bottom line -- the cop saw the whole thing, gave the woman two tickets, asked me if I wanted to press charges against her, and then sent me on my merry way.

People suck.

Glad to hear you're alright, tho'.

If you had a camera phone, you shouldve taken a picture of him trying to open your door, then the cops will most likely arrest him rather than blow you off, which is probably what they did. Also, go buy a 17" Mag light, protection and a nice light whenever you need it.

 

[mooS mooS]

F*ck Las Vegas drivers.

In general, they are some of the most oblivious, egotistical and inconsiderate piles of s*** that ever drove on a road.

 

[CRZbrussian]

damn....always gotta keep something in the car..not neceserily fatal, but something to harm them incase they do get past the door and the window...just something nice and small (even a high powered bb pistol or something will do), but glad you alright..hope u won't have to experience that one again...


gotta love some road rage...driving brings the worst out of me for some reason

 

[evilmonkeyMSP]

people are so ******* stupid...what if you had a gun & were ready to use it? That guy would have been done....unbelievable. Glad you're ok though.

my brother and were cut off by a rusty camaro in his neon a few months ago, the rednecks driving it not only cut us off, they turned around and came after us, got out of thier car at a light and started punching the hell out of the car. yeah, makes alot of sense.

I'mma go to hell for this but i laughed so hard. Favorite part is when you locked your doors and just blinked at the woman. Thanx i needed that.

what a dumbass! lol that reminds me two weekend's ago i was driving with some friends and somebody in a white ford ranger cut me off, i went around him and i guess my friend in the back gave him the finger. he got right on my ass, at the red light he pulled up beside me yelling. "**** you American citizen! you mother fucken American citizen. want to fight mother ******!" i said "no i didn't want to fight that i wasn't the one that did it," and he just kept screaming at me. when the light turned green he floored it, got in front of me and he slammed on the brakes to a complete stop. he just sat there, when i tried to go around him he came into my lane and i had to go across the turning lane and two other lanes with traffic coming towards us! He was like 2 inches from hitting the back of my mom's 4 runner! then he just turned around in the middle of the road it took him like 5 tries to get it turned around. For some reason I couldn't stop laughing after it happened and never called the cops.

I've been attacked, followed, almost run off the road numerous times. I now carry a police style retracable baton in my car. I've yet to use it, lets hope it stays that way....but I know how to issue non-deadly force if needed.

s***, one time I ended up driving 50km out of my way because a crazy nutjob in a VW wouldn't stop chasing..yes, this was at speeds of easily 200km/h steady...it finally ended when a trucker took some action at the vw...causing him to go off onto the gravel...I stopped as did the trucker. He promptly got out with his baseball bat and asked me if I was ok...he later explained his buddy behind him 5km radioed ahead to help out...boy, VW guy got outta there fast when he saw me with mr. burly trucker....the trucker wouldn't have hit him he told me, but he did have his plate number and car model along with description, he said the bat was to prevent the guy from going nuts...it was nuts, and I was shaking with fear. Not the speed..but rather the way he kept trying to crash into me. Apparently my car was faster, had better handling and better brakes as thats all that prevented him from actually wipping me out.

true...I have a nice Metallic Blue foot long maglite sitting on the side of the drivers seat.....total skull cracker
