So I decided to go home for lunch for the first time in about 2 weeks. As I'm cruising down the road, just going like normal, I see a red Chrysler 300 in a side driveway about to pull out a bit up the road. No biggie.
As I get closer, like close enough for him to not have time to pull out in front of me, he guns it and shoots out into the road across both lanes. So he is perpendicular to the flow of traffic, but still moving across the road.
I slam on my brakes, and somehow throw it into neutral (it is an automatic) since I do not have time to go around him. He continues moving across the road into another driveway. Once he is past me, my car is still rolling, but dead. Guess it killed itself while I was braking. So I get it stopped, put it back in park, and start it up. He then pulls onto the road behind me. It took all I had not to get out of my car, drag him from his car, and beat him. But he looked to be 70+ years old. I probably would have ended his life, and it was not worth that.
Have a Bugatti Veyron for your troubles.

May I ask why you threw it in neutral? Or was that an accident?

I honestly do not know. I drive my automatic like a manual a lot, shifting the gears myself. Not sure if since I had my hand on the shifter, it went into neutral when I hit the brakes, or if I just did it out of reflex.

Alright then.
I can't do much with the gears on my automatic DD. I just have L, D, N, R, P. My old trucks I was able to do 1, 2, 3, D, OD so I could play. I can do that on the Montego too but I prefer not to mess around with it's trans.

Seriously, fuck these motherless assclowns. I see people pull this shit when there's no traffic behind me, but they'd rather make me slam on the brakes and nearly hit them than wait five seconds of their no doubt incredibly valuable time. It makes me wish I could weld a cowcatcher to my grill and just dump these idiots onto the curb!

Was this in Oregon? I find that this is the typical Oregon driving style.
