File this under creepy but cool

sonic370 · 03-17-2011, 08:02 PM

So i'm on my way home from the store today and i hear this car honk. You know we all hear them and look around and wonder what the hell is your problem...

So i play it cool and head on home but this guy in his truck continues to follow me to my house. So i'm thinking ok i guess its on for some reason.

so i pull into my garage looking for the nearest tire iron when this guy rolls down his window and says can i ask you a question. i go sure all the time thinking hes
going to ask me if i know how to drive or something. so anyway he says what color is your car called,i just love that color. iv'e got a 64 chevy i would love to paint it this summer. So anyway i tell him MB. Sorry to ramble but this guy followed me all the way across town just to find that out.

Haha, man, I think I would of headed inside so quickly to grab my piece, that I wouldn't even give him a chance to ask.

After having a similar experience, if anyone is behind me when I'm pulling up to my house, I just keep going.

NEVER stop at your house. Hell, if you think you're being tailed (3 consecutive right turns should confirm it) don't even go to your neighborhood.

I like this idea a lot better than my initial instincts. I'm going to stick with this from now on.

yea dude. he probably was just playing it cool. now he knows where you live and he's going to come back and eat you and your family.

seriously though. if they are following you and you are sure. call the cops. don't go anywhere near your neighborhood.

Honestly, you never know if it's just some criminal casing your place. Anyone can strike up a friendly conversation to get close for some recon.

True, and the guy probably had a decent amount of time to think up a question to ask him. Granted the fact that this guy was honking at him before he got home probably means this isn't the case, but you never know.

I agree, this was probably harmless, but you definitely have to be a lot more careful these days.

If you think a truck is following your Z, just out run him.

I did that yesterday. I flipped a guy the bird for blocking two lanes on an exit ramp. Then he followed me in his big pickup. I lost that tail in two turns. If he had a quicker ride, I'd have gone straight to the nearest police station.

I used to flip people off all the time until I started to realize that everyone in VA carries a gun.

i dont usually flip peopel off. i just usually pass them at WOT to show them they are a dickface.
