As a member of a number of different groups, I sometimes notice stupid people with internet testicles getting their dander up over a supposed wrong that someone else did to them while driving in the mountains. Here’s the latest:

Hello big bear residents,
Today we were driving down the 38 around 12:30ish and we encountered a very rude and inconsiderate driver. He was riding our tail ,swerving,honking his horn and giving us the finger. We finally pulled over to let him pass. He did the same thing to the driver in front of him until we passed the Yucaipa turn off. I took a picture of his car and license plate and we started to flip me off again as we approach him to tell him to pull over this driver cut us off and took off down lugonia driving like a total jerk. This man with long white hair was driving like a total A.. and could of caused a major accident and he didn’t care. I believe this person is a big bear local with several stickers on his gray Nissan rogue. You are an inconsiderate driver and your behavior was uncalled for!!
I responded with:
So … you didn’t pull over to let him pass, you chased him, and you tried to pull him over.
Are you the police? If you’re not, then use the turn outs, don’t chase people, and don’t try to pull them over. That’s how accidents and road rage incidents happen.
Leave the actual policing to law enforcement.
