According to California Sheriff’s officials, the two-vehicle crash happened on Saturday around noon. Investigators learned that a 46-year-old man became angry at another driver that he thought was driving too slowly on Highway 138. After passing the woman, he slammed on his brakes, causing her to flash her high-beam lights at him.

California Highway Patrol officers responded to the scene and cited the man for brandishing a weapon.
