pdx crazies on 4 wheels

[edit] i know this is a long story but it is pretty frickin bizarre and crazy for actually being true.

I live in se (35th and hawthorne) and i rarely see ****ty drivers but downtown (although calm usually) i have had some crazy experiences. I'll relay the most fresh (3 days old) i've had. There is little to no exaggeration, believe me.

It was mid afternoon and my friend mitch and i were heading home from downtown, up 3d ave towards the hawthorne bridge. Actually, we were turning right on 3d. i didn't realize that was the way he was taking so we were separated by this lady in a red sedan. she turned with me but into a closer lane to her right. As we turned she yelled, quite harshly really, "get off the road!!!"

i responded by rapidly pulling up to her drivers side window and matched her speed. She looked quite frightened, maybe she expected i'd actually "get off the road"
She then yelled "get away from me. You ****ing idiot! Get off the road. You're going to get hit!"

this sounds like concern but if you could have heard her raspy trailer trash ***** voice screeching it at me you'd realized she was just a crazy dumb *****.

anyway... i just responded by looking at her as she smashed the gas pedal not realizing she had to come to an immediate stop at a light were i re-joined her. she held her middle finger in my face as i was calmly track standing right next to her. she kept screaming "get off the ****ing road you ****ing ******!!!" and stuff like that. I tried to explain that a. i am a legal vehicle and we are required to share the road together and b. it would be illegal for me to be anywhere else but the road in our case. she didn't give a flying **** and i got fed up. finally, after saying get off the road again, i just looked her in her ****ty, fiery little eyes and said "NO"

for the next 4 or 5 blocks i stayed right next to her window, enduring her blood curdling bullsh-i-t and middle fingers.
each block she became more aggressive and started cutting me off by lane switching . then she'd change lanes away from me and i'd follow just for fun. eventually she tried to sandwich me between a big van and her at a light giving me my final screeching ridicule

not knowing what else to leave for her as a parting statement (as i had to turn to take the bridge)
i just firmly and quite loudly shouted. "shut the **** up you ignorant *****" .

i wish i had had something better to say.

mitch was with me for most of this and we are still bewildered to this day (all be it only 3 days or so past) at this ladies irrational, unprovoked rage.

so i'd say that's agro for ya
