He left-hooks me and cuts in front of me then has to brake hard to avoid hitting the car in front of him.

To get to a red light.
I had this exact same thing happen to me, only I rolled up to the drivers window and knocked on it. She rolls down her window, and I calmly explained how dangerous she was driving. She apologized and drove off when the light turned green.
