When I made a few regular-speed turns to see if he was really following me, that's when he started to get agressive. He blocked me in. He tried to crash into me. Getting out of my car would have been a bad idea. Rolling down the window after his actions would have made me a sitting target for someone wanting to do harm.
I've had a few people walk up and ask why I'm parked somewhere. I don't mind telling them and having a civil conversation. I'll even find another spot if they don't feel comfortable with me there. Unfortunately, this guy took it to a seriously dangerous level.
