I definitely think the guy was incredibly stupid. Again, the circumstances may have been different, but according to his account, the father was an idiot and the shooter wasn't thinking.

Honestly, would you think a guy in a Mercedes was trying to kill you?

There really must be something else to this story because I can't conceive of anyone thinking it was a good idea, even in the heat of road rage, to smash someone's window in simply for tailgating. Obviously he forgot the umpteen different ways they teach you in driver's ed on how to safely escape a tailgater.

The whole situation is stupid.
