Just this weekend had a pretty scary situation
Guy went crazy because he couldn't pass me. I was trying to get over but wasn't willing to speed so fast and waited for the time.

Eventually got over and guy rolls up screaming and giving me the bird.

Speeds past me moves over and slams on his breaks. He then moves back over to his lane again and starts yelling. I roll down my window and ask him what he wanted me to do...I was already going 5 over.

He starts yelling again...in a stupid move I attempt to toss my CFA Breakfast burrito at his door. Unfortunately, its across my body while driving 45 MPH. Instead, I hit my crossbar and it knocks the burrito open spilling a small amount on top of me. It also throws my hand off, and instead goes through his window and exploded what was left. I immediately regretted it and for losing my cool. He on the other hand became unhinged (somewhat understandably).

At that point I spent the next 3 or so miles dodging him cutting me off, slamming on the breaks and screaming multiple obscenities at me. I eventually was able to push him ahead of me and move until the interstate to get away.

I hated myself for losing my cool like that. I'm unsure what even made me do it. The guy was out of control and I just tossed it....not sure why.

My son who was un the car asked me why I didn't just stop and deal with it. I just said, if a guy lost his cool originally just because he couldn't pass, who know what else he would be willing to do. I didn't want to find out. I just wanted to get out of it all.

I'll say this, that little FIAT could stop on a dime and pick back up pretty quickly. Of course my garbage company fleet Ford Escape is pretty lame as well.
