Ok, maybe I read this wrong. It's a gated community, they give you a key of sorts so you can get in and people without one, people that don't live there, can't. Sort of a security, like the guard. Now this guy who lives there is getting in with his key and someone he doesn't know is trying to sneak in behind him. He has a problem with that, so would I. He does not know if you live there or are just trying to get in and vandalize the joint. Maybe he does have anger problems and reacted a bit too harshly, but still, to him you're trying to sneak in where you don't belong. Laying on the horn surely didn't help, especially if he is psycho.

911SC is right, YOU caused the problem and now you’re mad because someone did and said something about it? What are you 12? Take responsibility for your actions. And yes it sounds like he lost his temper, but this type of thing probably happens to him all the time from people like you. And I guarantee he's not the only one that has a problem with you tailgating.
In fact you should be upset that the security is so lax at this gated community. after all someone- you or your parents- is paying that guy to do a job he isn't doing well

he could have had a gun or something. That's why I keep my tire iron in the backseat incase things start to get elevated.
IMHO, everyone is wrong in this incident. Tweek for tailgating and swerving. The guard (as Zoom44 points out) for not enforcing procedures. And the guy in the Honda, for an inappropriate (and ineffectual) response. Didn't he realize that the right thing to do whould have been to yell "Moron!", maybe with some four letter words or racial slurs thrown in?
And the rest of us, for reading this thread.
It's like we've just participated in an episode of Jaywalking.
