Road-raging white man cuts off Asian driver -- see video

The Long Beach Post reports that 24-year-old Robin Lim recently found himself getting cut off by an angry driver who was upset that Lim passed his car — despite the fact that the driver had signaled that he was making a right turn right before Lim passed.

After Lim passed him, the man then accelerated, passed Lim over a double-yellow line, and then abruptly slammed on his brakes once he had overtaken Lim’s car.

He then got out of his car and started yelling at Lim.“Learn how to f*cking drive, you piece of sh*t! ” he yelled at Lim. “Little Asian piece of sh*t!” The man also tried to forcibly open Lim’s car door, which he had made sure to keep locked during the confrontation.

After seeing that he would not be able to open Lim’s door, the man got into his car and drove away. Lim tells the Long Beach Post that he gave a video of the incident to local police, who are investigating the incident as a hit-and-run.

Cars are supposed to slam on the brakes and get rear-ended because you stop and throw on a blinker?

Dumb ass.

Ranting and approaching a strangers car.

That is exactly how your chest gets justifiably ventilated.

When I first moved to the east coast I was shocked by bad driving habits that would incite violence on the west coast.
