Can't do much here Jeff, sorry.

This can't be 100% true, otherwise there wouldn't be any tickets given at the scene of an accident unless it was witnessed by the responding officer.

If I remember correctly, my MIL was in an accident a few years ago, completely not her fault. However, the idiot that hit her went to the police station and said she was speeding. She was mailed a ticket. She was able to fight it in court (if I remember correctly the responding officer showed up to court with her and basically backed her up), but she still had to go.

you have the same luck as me, i am constantly having people pull out in front of me cutting me off or just acting like an a..! ive been rear ended 4 times hit in the side twice, some body cut in front of me while it was snowing then decided to turn into a wawa so i slid into them. but i do believe you can report them for aggressive driving, i may be wrong but i think its a law but you can call and report this.

I had a guy in an Audi A-4 swerving all over RT23 at about 4pm about 5 years ago. I called Wayne police and stayed with him. I crossed out of Wayne into Riverdale and finally Butler following him. The dispatcher actually transferred me to the towns I was following the guy in. They nailed him at the RT 23 Kiel Ave intersection. Very satisfying experience. If your hammred don't drive! Stupid S*** almost hit like 10 cars.

Being in law enforcement we get calls about other drivers alot and usually respond immediately call 911 report it as an iratics driver and give them the tags and direction of travel or follow them and give the police updates....

in a situation the OP described I would call 911. reason being the driver clearly is putting lives in danger carelessly which deserves an emergency response. I would assume #77 is people weaving in and out of traffic / tailgating etc.

Just to give you an update, I did go to the police station and two officers came out. One just wanted it over with and kept shooting me down, and tryign to walk away. The other one stood there, took his time, wrote everything I had to say, and assured me he would call me back wheither they catch him or not.

So I say boo to the one officer, and want to thank the other working on the case.

Without a license plate, probably nothing going to come of it. The cop that took time to listen to what you had to say probably enjoys doing his job and hopes to run into the J.O. at some point. 9-1-1 definitely appropriate if the driving is THAT bad. NEVER confront the driver. You never know which over-roided moron you're going to find yourself in a fight with...or which one will have a gun. Next time, either take a deep breath and move on with your life, or if it's serious enough and you feel the driver is a danger to others, call 9-1-1.

I would have let him pit himself on my fender. Someone did it to me a few years ago, same situation over a double yellow line. He wound up on someone's lawn with the suspension ripped off his car on the curb and a conviction on a 39:4-96 :mrgreen: My truck needed 10 minutes of polishing to get his paint off my chrome bumper.
