I hope I"m not giving the impression that I feel you did the wrong thing. It's good that you came out as you did, with no damage to either your car or you. I could have been worse indeed. Everyone handles these things differently. I feel that, given a good and proper pummeling, he'd be less likely to do it to some other guy, or girl for that matter.
