do not pull over. Call 911.
Worst road rage I ever encountered in Puna was a maniac who stepped on it at the old Keaau merge, tried to drive around me and weasel in. I didn't let him so he drove me off the road, came over to my car screaming, arms flailing. His wife sat in the passenger seat looking terrified so I knew this wasn't the first time she had witnessed his temper. I didn't engage, got his license plate number, and called the police. They told me he was an off duty officer.
Did I wish to file a report? On a crazy person with access to my home address? And the upper hand in any subsequent police report? "Not at this time. Thank you."
