    This wasn't a merge lane. In that instance, yes, you zipper in. This person was speeding down a clearly marked exit only lane to get around traffic and crossed over a zone you're not supposed to drive in to cut back into traffic. I didn't stop to fuck with her or retaliate or anything like that, which would be road rage. I was trying to prevent her from getting a shot at my plates, as I didn't know why she was trying to get that info.

    That sounds similar to what I pictured. You had no obligation to encourage her unsafe and irresponsible behavior by letting her in.

    That is why I have the GoPro running on the windshield while driving. They say a pic is worth a thousand words, well a video is worth a million.

    I wouldn't worry about the cops doing anything about it, I submitted a quality, clear dashcam footage of a jeep making an illegal U-turn, Thornton PD got back to me and said they have contacted the vehicle owner, but cannot do anything because there is no clear view of the driver.

    gopro doesn't do so well in night time and low light, when someone lights up their brakes, your gopro will wash out and no plate numbers will be read.

    Civil discourse is good. Use of derogatory slurs will not be tolerated. No one here but the OP knows what he experienced, however, commenting on what the OP posts is part of the discussion. Disagreements are normal and expected. Please keep it civil or this thread gets closed.

    Questions?
