Texas. An off duty deputy from another county tried to make me pull over in his personal Cadillac Escalade because he had thought that I was blocking traffic at a four way stop. I was waiting because an extended and wide load was turning left and the car coming from the left had stopped well before the sign to give the wide load some room. I figured that since technically the car to the left had stopped before me it was his turn to go next. While I am waiting I hear the car behind me lay on the horn but I wait anyway. I make my left turn and quickly catch up to the slow moving wide load where I follow from a safe distance. The Cadillac gets dangerously close behind me (I think he might have been flashing his badge but I didn't see it) and starts swerving side to side. I give him the finger but it was low and though a dark tinted window, you would have to be looking to see it. We get to the light and I turn left towards home. He turns to and comes up beside me quickly with his passenger side window down. As soon as his window is by my window I hit the brakes. He hits his brakes too and shows me his badge and tells me to pull over. I tell him that I am going to the local Police office and he follows me. I try to calmly explain myself in the parking lot but he insisted on going in and telling the Chief of Police what I did. This guy was mental with rage and I realized right away that going to the police was a wise move. We go inside and wait for the chief to see us. While waiting I apologized more than once to his scowling face, but he maintained his anger even when talking to the chief.
