News Nearby: Man Allegedly Threatens to Shoot Angry Driver
Driver said he was forced into oncoming traffic by man's vehicle.
A Winder man decided not to let an Aug. 22 incident of bad driving go without making his thoughts known to the other driver.
The man told police he was traveling on Winder Highway towards Dacula in the left lane on the two-lane portion of the roadway with a vehicle in front of him, one behind him and another -- a green Jeep Grand Cherokee -- beside in him in the right lane. The man explained that as the lanes began to merge into one lane, the driver of the Jeep Grand Cherokee sped up in order to cut in front of the Winder man and ended up forcing him to swerve his vehicle into oncoming traffic.
The man followed the Jeep Grand Cherokee to the stoplight at the intersection of Winder Highway and Harbins Road. According to the Gwinnett County Police report, the man exited his vehicle, walked up to the Jeep Grand Cherokee and asked the driver why he cut him off.
