    yes,that clown in the car is a fool. and i believe the op that there was little to no reason for it.

    but...

    had you hit that car,it would have all been on you. you'd be up to your eyeballs in problems. they'd have all kinds of injuries and mental anguish,and you'd be out of a job.you'd be UN-insureable.

    the first thing you need to do as a new driver is delete all this tough guy BS the other drivers tell you to do.of course they'd beat them a pipe,cause they said so on the interwebs. you are a rolling assumption of liability. if you can't handle that,go work a different field.

    if you worked for me you would be fired for riding that car that close regardless of why. there is nothing gained by handling that the way you did. NOTHING.

    and why would you post it to facebook? i really don't get this whole facebook mentality.

    Car driver is a short tempered idiot who should not be on the road and truck driver was very unprofessional about it.

    If that trucker wanted immediate revenge and not care about future ramifications, just call 911 and tell the dispatcher you saw a possible child kidnapping. Then provide license plate, car specifications and direction details.

    Pros:
    Immediate police action and sweet revenge

    Cons:
    Everything

    The professional thing to do? Grow thick skin and move on from the incident, each one of us has gone through a relatable incident. You'll forget about in 24 hours anyway.
