Ok my commute

Well this morning I had it out with my first Edmonton driver. Just riding to work and going through a small one lane construction zone. Also the sidewalk was closed. Well after we get through the guy (in his 40's) behind me in his minivan starts yelling at me as he drives by. So I throw my hands in the air at him. (No fingers mind you) So the guy lock up his front tires and swerves at the curb as to cut me off. I'm a bit back so I just coast by him. So He speeds back up and starts driving beside me and yells at me to have respect for people. I'm thinking "I'm the one just trying to ride to work" So I starting yelling back, I couldn't hold it in anymore. So he swerves at the curb again but this time try's to get out of his door and starts yell at me to stop and asks why I being such a ***** and not getting off my bike. Again he gets back in his MINIVAN and rolls up beside me again yelling at me to stop so he can try to fight me. I simply tell him I'm just going to work and i can't stop. After a second he says me to and peels off.

So after he is gone and I get to the next light I feel that I'm just shaking.... haha. Also I start thinking dam getting a plate number might have been nice. So I continue my ride to work and when I get there and minivan is in the parking lot next to the building and it's the same color as the guy's from earlier. I walk over and grab the plate number but I don't think it's his.

So Now I get to think about if said "driver" will be back on the ride home or tomorrow morning. And if I should have any plans for him....
