OK, so I'm driving down a 3 lane highway on a rainy night last week. This POS fullsize van passes me doing about 10mph (~55mph) over the limit, then cuts in front of me with no signal or anything. I'm guessing there were < 2 car lengths between him and my car when he cut me off. I was a bit annoyed, so I threw my brights on to let him know there was, in fact, a car behind his steaming pile of welfare transportation.
So I drove behind him for about a mile until I could get into the far right lane where the road expands to 4 lanes and of course, I turned off my brights at that point. As I'm passing some of the traffic in the other lanes and going about my business, this guy sharply swerves across two lanes of traffic to cut me off. I had to brake to avoid him slamming into me. So I played it easy, (with my brights back on) and stayed behind him until I had room to safely pass his POS. Traffic clears about a mile up the road and the left lanes are open again, so I get into the left lane and try to get away from this tool and he starts to swerve into my lane again!! I had to swerve out of my lane to avoid a collision again. After that, he sharply swerved in the opposite direction and got off.
My question: I know I have better insurance than this low rent, welfare piece of human waste, so I was tinkering with the idea of just letting him hit me. I go get my car fixed with a shiny new paint job while his PL/PD doesn't do crap but pay my deductible. Where would the fault have been in this situation? I was afraid me riding my brights after he cut me off may have been an issue.
How does the officer handle this situation given it didn't escalate further after a collision? This is in Michigan.
