Bini Posted April 8, 2014 Report Share Posted April 8, 2014 Already called DH but he says there\\\'s not much I can do with a partial plate. My daughter and I were physically run off the road and up onto a medium by a man driving a forest green Grand Cherokee with the plate: C03 xxx (don\\\'t recall the rest and it makes me furious!). We\\\'re okay and the car appears okay but I was scared and so was my daughter. After the man aggressively raced by us, he then slowed and began to backup, I was afraid he was going to get out of his car but instead he just rolled down his window and leaned his whole upper body out - waving his arms about and shouting explicits with finger gestures. My daughter was crying! I was dialling my DH because I was freaked out! Is there ANY hope in reporting this with luck of any justice? I\\\'m pulled off in a safe spot, gathering myself, but I\\\'m physically shaking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted April 8, 2014 Report Share Posted April 8, 2014 JERK!Yes, you can report a partial plate with a vehicle description. Unfortunately, unless there is injury or you have several witnesses to corroborate your story, nothing's gonna come out of it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NeuroTypical Posted April 8, 2014 Report Share Posted April 8, 2014 Call the cops and tell them what you know. They'll either be able to do something about it or not - can't really tell until you talk to them. Bini 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bini Posted April 8, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 8, 2014 We're fine but I'm majorly peeved about what happened. I'm letting it go because I doubt anything can really be done. If that driver was miraculously found, like Anatess said, it's my word against his - especially since there are no damages - except my mental state, briefly.. Lol.

Irishcolleen Posted April 8, 2014 Report Share Posted April 8, 2014 They should be able to run a partial plate with the car type. This happened to us with a truck once. WHen we got to the next toll booth they held him at the toll booth and the state police were there with him. It is very scary! I'm glad you are OK!

NeuroTypical Posted April 8, 2014 Report Share Posted April 8, 2014 Even if the cops can't do anything about your particular situation, knowing that there's an aggressive and possibly dangerous guy out driving around in a certain color Jeep Cherokee, is good information for them to have.

notquiteperfect Posted April 8, 2014 Report Share Posted April 8, 2014 I would still report it. If this is the route this guy usually takes, others may have had / will have a similar experience and if they keep a file, there would be more evidence to do something about it.

Just_A_Guy Posted April 9, 2014 Report Share Posted April 9, 2014 I've defended road rage cases in Utah where someone just got a plate and made a report. So yes, by all means, contact law enforcement and tell 'em what you know. This guy's a menace. Bini 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
classylady Posted April 9, 2014 Report Share Posted April 9, 2014 Bini, I'm so sorry this happened. It might help you emotionally to report what happened. I think it's good that you shared. Bini 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bytebear Posted April 10, 2014 Report Share Posted April 10, 2014 I got sideswiped on the freeway in LA, bumper to bumper traffic. I even got out when traffic stopped and asked the guy if he was going to pull over. Even with a photo of the license plate and a physical description, the cops said they couldn't do anything because I couldn't prove he was driving the car.

Bini Posted April 13, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 13, 2014 Thank you everyone.I started doubting that I got the first part of the plates right, after trying so hard on recalling the last part. I probably should have reported it, but I just didn't feel much would of could be done. Especially with the small bit of info I had.Bytebear, I'm mobile but got a message that my Reporting you was unsuccessful... I wasn't trying to report you! Not sure what that was even about... But I guess I hit the Report button accidentally :/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
