Lane drop, failure to yeild

. Well after leaving the canal this morning I head home. Get into Stoughton on rt 27 and everything is fine. Well the road has a lane drop (right lane) and I am in the left lane with the double yellow lines on my drivers side. The car to my right (who is ahead of me slightly) pulls in front of me when I yeild for him. No problem so far... well there was a trailblazer behind me on right side that decides to try to pass me on the inside and is now beside me (now in the breakdownlane). Only problem is there is no where for him to go. I keep a straight course and feel his vehicle (04 or 05 Chevy trailblazer) push into the side of me. I pull over and see him get out kind of huffy. I get out and his attitude changed a little really fast cause I am now pissed. He starts mouthing off a little and I blew up at him. He starts spouting that he was trying to merge and I lost it. Told him I'll just call the cops and see who they think was in the wrong. (I am looking at the side of my truck now and don't notice any damage) His car has a black scrape on side of front fender from my front tire. Not much damage. I calm down a little and ask him if I am calling the police> He replies" I have no damage" So I don't bother making the call. Well while driving the rest of the way home I notice my radio not coming in very well. (his mirror had clipped my antenna and taken it off) I figure no big deal and go to pick up another one. Well it is the wrong one and I now need to go to the dealership and buy a whole antenna assembly. What a royal pain in the arse this is turning into. They don't make it an easy replacement. It is probably a good thing he isn't standing infront of me right now or I would probably really lose my cool. Sorry I just had to vent a little and let my blood pressure come back to normal.

Dealership just called and said parts cost 80 freaking bux. Now I am pissed again
