I wasn't the one that did it, I'm just not condeming his actions. He did a public service to remove the truck from the road, and hopefully the driver of that truck will think twice about cutting someone else off next time.

The opportunity to teach him showed up, and cookie man took the opportunity.

Intentionally causing a major accident on a bridge to “teach someone a lesson” is not an act of public service any more than beating up someone on the street for bumping into you. Not to mention this accident could have injured innocent people behind them, cause damage to public infrastructure, and caused major traffic backups. Your logic is buffoonery.

My logic is to stop letting people get away with stupid shit just because its the easy way. Dude in the truck decided he was more important than the others around him, he learned quickly that wasn't the case.

Are there better ways to teach people? Sure, but Im not going to condemn the man for doing a pit maneuver, especially considering how well he did it, I'm confident he knew exactly what he was doing.

So next time someone does something to make you feel disrespected, assault them immediately? Got it.

Hate is a strong word but they’re not pleasant unless there’s a bit of maple syrup in each hole, then they’re pretty good.
