Default I was the victim of a purposely intended "side-swipe" on the 410 today...

So I get up this morning with the intention of having a great day along with my son and his friend at the Somerville pool in the beaches area, when along comes an a-hole in an old BMW, whom I had seen driving erratically for a while, him and another a-hole in an old Civic. He tried to cut me off once and I didn't let him in so I guess he was pi$$ed.
When we approach the 401 E ramp he passes me on the right and cuts me off, he then moves to the right lane again, I pushed the gas to pass him and he purposely hits me (you can see the tire marks on my front door) once in the front door and then on the rear fender.
The worst part is that I thought he'd pullover, but he took off at full speed, I had to chase after him to get his plate number, I was able to get it and report the a-hole.
After spending over an hour at the accident report center we went to the pool and still had a great day.

Default Could have been worse, glad it was just that

He's gonna get a nice visit and pay big time for a hit and run, and charged with careless driving at a minimum.
