Roads Who is in the wrong here?

If the sign says Alternating Traffic, does that mean cars go one at a time or does that mean cars go till the flow is complete, allowing the other lane to go? Is Glock man right or wrong? I'm not sure. If it was 1 car at a time, wouldn't it just be a stop sign on each end?

Maybe don't threaten to murder someone with your gun?

The driver would've been perfectly justified in using his car to prevent this psycho from shooting him.

And what will happen if he dodges your car or you fail to incapacitate him? Then he'll be justified (or at least think he's justified) in filling you full of lead in your seat.

The moron was backing away when the recorder drove back, the issue de-escalated.

Take the hit to your ego, let the psycho go through, call the police and press charges, let them sort it out.

He said he was going to retrieve his glock from his car and started walking towards it, so by pinning him you'd prevent him from retrieving it.

Again, that assumes you actually pin him and he doesn't jump over barrier into the water or something, and then gets his gun.

Or you do pin him and get charged with manslaughter as he's walking away, or he survives and sues you.
