  1. Maybe this guy was finally sick of having to dodge out of the way for all these stupid, ignorant drivers out here and snapped! There have been MANY times I myself would have loved to do that to some of these people out here who don’t know how to drive or got their license in a cereal box!!!!!!!!! I think maybe the police should go back to when people actually got ticketed for things like 1 headlight, no brake lights!, and failing to signal!….

  2. There is something called the LAW and I hope the idiot who cause damage to this guys car is caught.
    Not one of us is perfect and no one knows what is going on in a persons car or mind and sometimes stupid things happen.
    Maybe his mom just died and he was on his way to the hospital? who knows you sure do not sick of it.
