Victim of Road Rage and Ohio Trooper gives speeding ticket as a bonus

  04/29/2012 5:17PM - This white pickup truck with Kentucky plates 166-KHR passes me on the right then slows down as I try to pass him, he purposely starts driving in the middle of two lanes. I slam on brakes. He moves back to the right lane. I try to pass again and again purposely he starts driving in the middle of two lanes. I slam on break and honk. Traffic now increases and there are other cars between us. I call 911 and they transfer me to the dispatchers. I explain the problem and the dispatchers asks for vehicle description. It was hard for me to see the truck as now there are other vehicles (mainly SUVs and mini-vans). I described as best I could and said that I will call back when I can get a better description. The dispatcher promised that she will rely the information to a state trooper. Within couple of minutes, a third lane opens up (Newark, OH) and I see the white pickup truck speeding away in that lane. I change to the newly formed left lane to get a better description and suddenly see flashing lights on the other shoulder. I immediately realise that there is a trooper and start changing lanes to stop and talk to him. He too steps out and asks me to pull over. Guess what, he is not interested in my problem - even after I mentioned my call with dispatches. He is adamant on giving me a speeding tickets and kept asking if the dispatcher asked me to go on the speed that I was at when he clocked me. He finally gave me the ticket and when I asked if he would try to find the truck. He shrugged and said "The truck is now way too far for me to do anything and I am the only trooper in this area". Message to drivers on I-70 in Licking County, OH, if you are victim of road rage, then slow down, take exit and wait it out. DO NOT CALL STATE TROOPER FOR HELP. THEY HAVE NO INTEREST IN HELPING YOU.
