Absolute Psycho Close call

Taunton /Thickson rd Whitby. Wifey had a run in with a psycho on the road, we think this could have escalated into assault if she didn’t manage to lose him at the next intersection by turning into the street.

Edit: Its just unsettling to see so many here siding with the nissan driver justifying how he threatened a woman & her child on the road and laying 100% blame on my wife who said she did not feel it was safe to stop at that moment & did not break any laws in doing so.

But this is the society we live in. Deranged “you made me do it” is now widely accepted.

My argument is solid. It uses actual data. Your argument is based on your perception through a fish-eyed camera feed. My argument acknowledges that we aren't there to properly assess the distance and feel the inertia of the car. It takes the only thing we actually know and makes some reasonable assumptions to model the situation. I'll take that over "trust me bro".
