    Well this lady is still at it. She actually turned around after I passed her on a street and followed me riding my bumper yelling out the window in my home town.



    Tonight we saw her again in the next town and she proceeded to turn around and follow me again. this time, after we turned onto the main road she almost t-boned a car turning out of a one lane street. I had stopped to let a car pull out so I could turn down the the lane and the other scrapper FLEW around me in the left turn lane and almost hit the car. Unbelievable.

    Tonight, instead of annoying the police with a phone call I emailed the local Chief of police and gave him all the details of what has been happening and asked him what his thoughts are and what he advises.

    This has now gone beyond irritating, its getting downright dangerous.

    I'm not going to let her intimidate me. I thought about turning around in my seat and snapping her with my phone but given how nutso she is I decided that would probably agitate her even more and cause things to escalate. I then decided to send the email and see what he says/thinks.

    One last thing, by not doing anything, you are encouraging and enabling this behavior. You are also endangering you and your family. Eventually when you explain to the authorities, they are going to say if you felt threatened why didn't you speak up before? Handle this mess ASAP.
