With someone following you to your home it's either to do a number on your or to hit your ride if you leave it out. Regardless, the fact that someone is following you, call 911, explain the situation and the PD will respond. The officer will have a friendly chat with the driver, run his name and possibly give him a ride to the big house and also seize his car, if it's not hot already, with the hook. Not a bad day for all involved! LOL!

Yes, this is true, so long as the driver sticks around. If not, it's your word against his or hers. Always good to pay attention to your surroundings while driving - especially in a vehicle that draws attention. Doesn't hurt to have friends that will drop everything at a moments notice to come by and talk with someone, either, but you have to be very careful when confronting someone, which is why the police recommendation works well.

I got followed home in my tc once, luckily it was middle of the day, and i was going to my parents, not my place. the guy even stopped in front of my parents. so i got out and walked up and asked him what he was following me for, he just smiled and drove away.

This car was pretty noticable and there are a quite a few places in the valley where people meet up. If I see him again I'll be sure to mention it. I haven't been back to that house since that day but it still pisses me off.

Well glad to hear your car didnt get messed with! People just have no idea how much time and work goes into something like a car and in all reality its not about the money but things people say to you about your car that makes it worth all the BS

Hopefully they'll steal the fender I botched pulling out of the driveway.
