Almost got killed today (Bay Area)

Ok, the weirdest **** happened to me today. I went up to the Oakland hills near Skyline Blvd. to take some pictures of my car. (http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v3...CS/1118cruise/) It was pretty cool, drove back home at around 6:00 pm. I went on the freeway and I was pretty much the only person in my lane.

Right when I was about to exit a white SUV cuts off the car in front of me and gets into the turning lane that I'm in. The driver stops right on the turning lane in the middle of traffic, walks out of the car and walks towards me. This was right next to a gas station so I thought she mistaken the turning lane for parking and wanted to ask for directions. She walks closer and I realized she was saying "ARE YOU FOLLOWING ME?" This is like a scene from a movie. Her boyfriend or son walks out from the passenger seat. In my mind I'm thinking; "sh*t, I'm gonna get shot." She then says "YOU ************* BETTER STOP FOLLOWING ME OR I'LL **** YOU UP." Since we were both on the turning lane I turned after her. She probably thought I was really following her and sped off. She slows down in a intersection, swerves and stops right in the middle of it. I swerved out of the way to avoid her almost causing an accident.

I'm not trying to play the race card here but... You could imagine how scared a young Asian kid like myself was when two black people in a SUV stops in front of you, gets out and threatens to kill you. Drives off and then TRIES to kill you.

Why is it that there are cops out to get me when I'm going to tennis practice going 40 in a 35 mph zone and no cops to arrest these retards that just escaped from the mental institute trying to kill an innocent person?

maybe she thought you were a cop or a detective. why would she be paranoid about being followed when she's with a husband/boyfriend?

I don't look too old for my age and I was dressed pretty casual. There's no way I could look over 18 even from 4-5 cars ahead. My car has a BAPE doll hanging from my mirror, a toy RE FD on my dash, and my license plate behind my windshield. If anything, my car looked like a rice rocket.

I never heard of a 16 year old kid driving a rice rocket being an undercover cop or detective. But that does sound like a cool tv show?

Wackyracer: Cuz I don't know any martial arts, and with all the homicides around the area I didn't want to take my chances :P.

I love low budget films .

Yah, the homicides are getting pretty bad lately. The latest I heard is the girl that got shot at Washington Park at Alameda. Thats been getting the most attention. I think almost everyone I know heard about it. She was actually a friend of a friend. Really sucks to see young people my age getting killed like that.

I would say learn some martial arts! If a woman scared the living daylights out of you, it's time to rethink your life!

Well the guy with her was twice my size. It was two against one, and its a SUV versus a Rx-7. No human contact involved. They stopped their car right in the middle of the road so I could swerve and crash into innocent bystanders/other cars/phone pole/buildings.

I don't know martial arts myself but I've always looked up to Bruce Lee. I've read a lot of literature about and by Bruce and I remembered one of his most famous quote went something like, "this isn't the age when people would solve a problem with a spar, it's where someone would just pull out a gun, and BAM you're dead.." The quote is horribly butchered but the point still remains.

when i took my FC to car wash today, i saw a black cop drove into a busy car wash place. everyone was inline and he was the last one one entered.

after waiting 1 min and no one willing to let him cut in the front for his FREE car wash, he burn out his crown vic in the parking lot when he u turn and exit the car wash and keep burnning out on the way he is exiting the car wash and almost hit a car on the road. he flashed his light and force everyone to stop and let him exit the car wash.

everyone in the store was talking about the cop. someone even call the police dept about what we saw. carzy!

I've seen cops of all ethnicities do burnouts and dangerous stuff. it's not a race thing, there is always exceptions. Just like how I've seen and know of people of different ethnicities doing stupid stuff and committing crimes.
