The latest incident on I-25 left two people dead.
A road-rage incident on Interstate 25 in Denver shortly before 3 p.m. yesterday, June 13, left two people dead and 25-year-old Stephen Long in police custody., two men were riding in one vehicle and Long was driving another behind them when they got into some kind of altercation heading north on I-25 around Alameda Avenue. The vehicle in front stopped in the right lane of traffic by the Sixth Avenue viaduct, and the two men got out. Long stopped, too, although he did not get out of his car.
In the wake of this this latest road-range incident, plenty of drivers in the metro area have been wondering how they'd react in a similar situation. And the Colorado State Patrol has some potentially life-saving advice. Lewis stressed, however, that"the first thing to do is get away from danger. Don't put yourself in more harm's way in order to get that information."
"There's nothing that says you need to get out of your vehicle and engage somebody who's coming up to you," he pointed out."And what may be a simple way to indicate that you didn't mean to cut somebody else off may be taken as a sign of aggression. So the best recommendation is don't engage, period."
When a furious person is following another driver, other options are available — but they should generally be choices of absolute last resort.
