Road rage-itis

So this is second hand. Spouse was driving the other day (this has an ominous sound, no?) and was pulling out into traffic. Creeping would be more appropriate- slowly- so as to see around parked cars, etc. And some dude having a bad day drives by in a Jag and honks at him and gets all tonkey about the few inches of hood that he had to avoid. Spouse then gets onto the road behind Jag. And goes onto Eastlake. And stays behind Jag guy for a while - changing lanes once. Going through two lights behind Jag guy. Did I say that the Jag was a convertable...no...well it was.

So after the bridge, Jag guy starts gesturing for spouse to follow him off the road onto a side street and swerves off. Spouse didn't follow, but kept on keeping on. And that was it.

Jag guy seems to have been threatened by the little black Miata in his rear view mirror. Spouse swears that he didn't gesture, intimidate or otherwise threaten Jag guy. So, it looks like a classic run in with Mr. Over-reaction Jag Guy. Or he was hitting on Spouse. That's it. He totally wanted Spouse. Dude!
