Around 2 A.M. my girl amd me came back from a friends party and as always we used the shortcut to our home. We had about 1 mile left to drive, when all of a sudden I realised two cars blocking the road. Immiditely I understood this situation was setup. I stopped (around 8 car length ) infront of me some mean figures started jumping out the cars, heading towards me.
I had enough time turning and flooring it. OP isnt paranoid, he just did the right thing. No need to end up in the sever, with your throat sliced up. |

Or he's just used to more urban areas? Either way, yeah it sounds like he over reacted. Wait until you take a few turns at least to start pulling away.
On another note, i have had people try to chase me down for a few various reasons. It never ends well when they try to keep up with a 500whp BMW in a eco box ![]() Last edited by natedog7700; 04-04-2016 at 03:16 PM.. |

Someone in a beater will "accidentally" rear-end you. You stop, put the car in park and get out to confront them - as you get out of the car, the buddy who is hiding in the bushes jumps in and takes off, or they jump you, take your keys and take off. Either way, end result is you lose your car. Nothing wrong with being cautious. http://fox2now.com/2014/12/29/rear-e...-to-steal-car/

This reminds me of this one time I was shopping at the mall around Christmas. I had a pretty common car back then, a Jet Black 335i.
I had just finished a full days shopping, when I got back to my car to put all the stuff in the trunk. As I approached the car I noticed someone sitting in the back seat. I cautiously checked the plate to see if it is indeed my car, as it is a popular model and color. The car is indeed mine, and so I got closer and saw that it's an old woman sitting in the back seat. I asked the woman how and why she is sitting in my car. The old woman replies that she had been shopping with her son and family but felt unwell and returned to the car to rest. She obviously had mistaken my car for her son's, as it was the same model and color. The old woman then asks to be driven to a hospital, as she is still feeling unwell. I originally agreed. As I got into the driver's seat something made me very nervous about the situation and I asked the old woman if she is feeling well enough to direct me as I back the car out of the parking place. The old woman agrees, gets out of the car and proceeds to direct the reversing maneuver. As soon as I got the car out of the parking space I sped out of the car park, leaving the old woman stranded. I then drive straight to the nearest police station and reports the incident. A police officer then searched the car and found an axe concealed under the driver's seat. I had had a lucky escape!

Hehe... this is an old urban legend. I literally copied and pasted from some urban legend site. Sorry... sometimes, it is a little TOO obscure to recognize as humor. If I wanted to frighten someone... you know what I would do... and it would terrorize MKSixer .

I heard "The Mexicans" are often in these "Urban" areas with their "Chrome wheels" and their "tinted windows" doing their "k turns".

So this is what I am picturing...the guy obviously took a wrong turn from the main highway onto some road he didn't recognize. You were fairly far so he kinda pulled a u turn. By the time he was going back you were right there so he let you pass so he doesn't cut you off. And you notice the chrome and tint and your tin foil hat starts vibrating or whatever the hell they do and your paranoia kicks in for no reason and you illegal ran a stop sign and the speed limit from the sound of it for no reason.
I kinda wish you had called the cops cause I would have loved to hear what they had to say to you haha. Stop being so paranoid. And if what the OP did isn't paranoia then you guys need to get of States. lol. I think there are days when I go to bed with my door unlocked or garage door open without many issues. Hopefully I don't jinx it though ahah. |

I've driven through your country a couple times alone, in a flashy car and without a gun.
Stop being so damn afraid.

Personally, if I have the option to "profile and survive" versus "trust and die," I'm gonna pick Door Number One.
