In reply to the discussion: I saw Instant Karma on an aggressive driver last night. [View all]NNadir
(35,840 posts)9. I had one of those pleasures a few years back.
I tend to drive at or close to the speed limit, as I tend to be a gas mileage freak.
I was driving home with my family in the car, I-95, coming up to my home exit, 65 miles per hour. Some asshole came barreling up at me, almost rear ending me, at what had to be 100 mph or more, weaved around me, barely missing me, right past a radar cop. He or she pulled off the exit, and the cop, who'd put on his or her lights, pulled out in chase did the same. I saw the asshole pulled over just past the exit.
I had been momentarily freaked that the asshole was going to hit me, and thus was pleased. My wife and sons cheered.
It was years ago, but I remember it.
