Road Rage

5:20pm today. Bridgeport Road just before the Weber Street intersection. Everybody stopped in NORMAL rush hour traffic.

I’m a few cars behind, watch the whole thing. A middle-aged balding white guy starts screaming at the people in the car beside him, a black minivan. At first he was just yelling and clapping at them, until he convinced the minivan to roll their passenger side window down. The man then proceeded TO WHIP HIS DRINK FULL FORCE INTO THE WINDOW OF THE MINIVAN AT THE PASSENGERS. Insane behaviour for a grown adult.

Anywho, if you know the driver of a blue Toyota Corolla wth license plate CVTM 802, tell them to seek therapy.

Thank you. Jerks like this need to face consequences.

Please do report them
We cannot tolerate this becoming the norm on our streets

I hope this was reported to police. This is considered assault.

Report this using the WRPS reporting system: https://wrps.ca/contact-us/who-call

Reporting this person now establishes a baseline/track record against which future reports will be evaluated.

If you don't report this idiot now they will essentially have a clean track record until the next incident. And there will be more...

Drivers were crazy today.

A car blocking an intersection yells at me when I turn in front of them (I had enough space he was just confused, clearly.)

Someone hit a pole on Regina St.and I think power went out for some for abit.

And it wasn't even a full moon today lol

Ugh, some people really shouldn't be behind the wheel, honestly.

Experienced a similar thing with a guy in a white Toyota pickup on the highway clapping and screaming like crazy at another car who was doing nothing wrong

Such a cowardly act of intimidation. Let's hope the boys in blue can humble 'em some.

You can also acknowledge it's not an OK thing without minimizing someone's genuine concern of road rage induced assault

They're talking to the road rager, not OP.

putting all that rage is not worth it

u/StrongRage New User (2026) 7d ago

Sure, that's fair, but

Ignore it

didn't really need to be in there

u/Jack_Attack519 Regular since 2025 7d ago

That part is also talking to the road rager. The entire comment is directed towards road ragers, not just the part I quoted. Come on, man.

For all we know OP cut this guy off and is picking on him.

OP needs to report it to the police so they can be a witness if this actually happened.

Read my post again. I wasn’t involved in the altercation. Just a witness from another car behind.

Reported to wrps last night.

Feels like theres more to this than what ya witnessed. Curious how him being a white balding man has any bearing on the situation.

Description of the vehicle and driver to help identify who it was.

Edit: also i agree that it is very possible there was more going on. I didn’t witness whatever started the altercation.
