    Just happened. I hope someone from his company can figure out who he is and get this unsafe driver off of their fleet.

    I couldn't tell from the video..Did he bump you at all?

    i'll bet he didn't try to hit you on purpose....seems to me his distance and perception are off..Meaning lack of experience

    Luckily I moved in time to avoid being hit, but I was not very happy.

    Dude if you wasn't going so slow up that mountain you wouldn't have got your doors blown off by that large car. Stop honking the horn and grab another gear slow poke. :)
