I have a friend who goes ape shit when he gets tailgated, one time a small group of college age chicks did it, he let them pass, then sped up and followed them for a good 1/2 hour until they pulled in to a driveway, they were freaking out.
No offense but your friends a self-important idiot...Being tailgated isn't that big of a deal.
Road rage is an ego/pride thing. He probably won't grow of it. There's no excuse for following someone just because your mad the cut you off or tailgated you. What if that guy is off his psychoactive meds and/or he has a gun in the glove box? A friend taught me to drive and he told me: "Driving is just about getting where you have to go. Assume that no one else knows what they're doing and don't take anything personal."
Let me tell you story:
I'm from NYC. If you've haven't been people drive fast and aggressively. I live elsewhere, in small rural town, in the state now. People drive much slower here.
Recently I was driving to work on a highway(limit 65MPH) doing about 80MPH. Three-lane highway, in the leftmost lane. There's one car, BMW, in the middle lane. I'm less than 50 ft from passing the beamer when he switches into my lane without signaling.
Again they drive slow: I signal into the middle-lane without slowing down. The guy again tries to cut me off in this lane but again, I signal into the right lane without slowing down (I'm outmaneuvering this guy in an 02 Elantra ). This makes him mad so he follows me and takes a picture of my license plate.
That's fucking stupid. Is he going to report me(a cop can't write a ticket if they don't see the infraction?. What's he going to tell them: "Well officer I failed to signal twice while trying to cut-off another motorist but I couldn't. I'd like to write him a summons."
Take what you want from the story but I find it funny how most people have 0 state control and let other's get to them so easily.
