Well, I just got a call back from the Lost Hills Sherrif Station, and they just told me that they didnt find those guys that I reported. They still have their plate #'s, so do you guys know what I legally can do now?

Wow, this actually happened alot in the D.C. area. Cars travel in packs of three, normally with no tags on VIN #'s on them and are generic colors, like black white/silver. What they do is try and box you in, were you can move, you were lucky you had the emergency lane. But the front car slams on its brakes, but you cant stop quick enough, and hit the car infront of you. They do this to collect insurance, because regardless, if you hit the car from behind its your fault.

Until the cops find at least one of the drivers, I am not sure what you can do. I am sure it is a horrible expierence, good thing you were not hurt. But, just keep an eye out for those cars, if you see them report them, you are probably not the only one looking for these people, ask around, or even the police dept.

No joke
-nt (hope everything works out)

i think everyone here needs to calm down, our fellow scion member has had a traumatic experience, but the best way to relax and calm down are
1 call the g/f
2 if shes not home, say hello to rosy palms

I know what your talking about. In my area, in not so sure its for insurance fraud, but more just to be _______s. Well I out driving and I hate it when people either purposely stay in your blind spot or won't move when you try to get into their lane. THey just like speed up, each time you try to get into their lane and then they slow down again. Its really annoying. Funniest thing happened today, a lady in a benz slk was driving and kept speeding up to the front of my car and then slowing down to the end and i didn't notice at first but later i noticed she was checking out my car. We live in the same area, so when we got to a stop light, she stopped way behind me and slowly moved forward. It was funny cause she was sticking her head out the window to get a better look. I started to laugh.

What can you say there's A holes out there. This happened tonight about 10 mins ago. I was on the far right lane and on the upcoming intersection is a merge. This impala wants to be and assss and tries to block me out. So I gave it some gas went by 5k RPM's (AT) then he had to look at the butt of my car.

easily outrun? don't let that video of that underage fat kid getting demolished by that tc fool you. call me a honda fan boy if you want, but know that you are a scion fan boy yourself for thinking that the tc is way faster than an Si.

btw top speed on a tc is 127mph while the top speed on an Si is 132mph. so yeah, it can catch up to it.

you should take a really long pole, shape it into a lance, and mount it on your hood, so that if they ever try and do that again, they get a nice sharp pointy object rammed through their car.

oh and does anyone have a link to those monster garaged scions? i wanna see em.
