    I wanted to do it but I was nervous about my $600 headlights not sealed properly.
    I went less risk more reward with my Blazing Blue Pearl Bottle Opener

    Someone pointed out that naming things I've driven over after myself might be a tad narcissistic.;)

    Time to make this guy famous for the lack of what the officers can do. Because this behavior shouldn't be acceptable. It's also all on dash cam ;) including conversations with dispatch and the officers..

    Let me clarify after jumping through hoops I find out he thought I hit him on 12/14 a 55mph highway.

    So car cuts me off had their taillights and headlights all spray tinted black. Cuts me off to make the exit. Cool. Then hits his brakes. Takes me a second to realize due to the almost impossible to see taillights... I go in left lane because I don't like driving behind cars missing a light. Realize that only 1 lane turns right.. get back over. Guy stops at the light doesn't try to right turn on red. Parks his car right there and I'm like um. Anyways guy gets out light turns green mask and sunglasses comes right up to my window pissed off. And I'm just like .... Uh ik I got close but you cut me off and painted your taillights so dark they are hard to see. Comes up to my window and knocks hard. At this point I'm shaking because with all the Looney bins recently (had another altercation on my street when a lady went about 2" off my mirror if even and I honked and she retaliated by parking in the middle of the road for awhile).

    Anyways no idea what he is going to do, why he's out of his car and so I start taking pictures put the camera right in his face, that's not zoomed in. And call 911. Fun stuff. My officer friend said (when I immediately called after they basically refused to do anything the officers) they probably had a "better" /more fun call... Ironically yes they flipped on lights and zoomed away before we even had this wrapped up. The MPD is currently walking a thin line with the black community.. so my response they can get away with road rage??. And since I had to flag down the town of Madison officer he was behind me.... And was just going to drive past. Town officers have been getting lazy/not doing their job as thuroughly because town is being eaten by city and most of those officers are loosing their jobs or transferring.

    This guy claims I was tailgating him, then hit him then tried to drive away aka why he was blocking my door and window at a greenlight. I only found that out now after jumping through hoops to try and figure out why they didn't even ID/ask for drivers licenses. He cut me off on the beltline, I got kinda close because I didn't see him slowing down since he's painted his tail lights... And headlights and brake lights black. He jumped for the exit I was taking. Then for no reason at the light got out and came at me then knocked on my window and tried to get me to get out. That's when I called the police. Had to flag down town of Madison who was in an unmarked vehicle and a unrecognizable uniform. Then the officer started YELLING at me. While I'm on the phone with dispatch who told me they have no officers in that location. Only to find out that it's completely acceptable to have road rage get out at block a car. And they kept asking if I wanted to press charges. Which I didn't know meant arrest. But I am like how is it not even worth a ticket..? Blocking me in, refusing to go on a green light, had he not cut me off I wouldn't of assumed he was pissed about that. And I would of been more inclined to see what was up. Then city of Madison also didn't help. I kept asking like obviously if I'm shaking and the guy came at me how is this legal?? The came at aka getting out of his car then hitting my window, when I'm at least 3' behind him at the stoplight. And the literally shaking infront of the officer because with all the Looney bins you don't know if he has a gun or not. Also all you can see is he's pissed off. He's an idiot if he can't tell if a truck hit him at 55mph or not.

    Anyways obviously I don't think he should be arrested.. and when the guy got out why is he still blocking me after he can see there isn't damage... He has a piece of shit...

    And unfortunately the officer in scene never asked me what happened. Only listened to this guy. And jm like uh I have dash cam video, you want it??

    Quite out of order now. It's sad because I've been standing by our police department and arguing with everyone against it. I still stand by my friend and the officers that are good... But this isn't the first time they showed they didn't want to be there post accident.

    Friend within city mentioned to look into obstruction of traffic, road rage, disorderly conduct. Oh and the cops didn't even ticket the car.... For painting his tail and headlights too. *Cough* if they wrote more tickets the budget might not be as big of an issue... But yeah the mayor cut police/fire and EMS funding.... In favor of improvements to the bus system........

    Anyways now it's documented online incase I get a call from insurance claiming someone said I hit them. Since police didn't formally write any sort of report. Not even defendant claimed he was struck by a Toyota truck and driver tried to hit and run.. then that they determined no fault and no accident or collision..
