Well yes. But it wouldn't have been 'road rage' ;)

I had a woman threaten to beat my ass and put me in the hospital because I cut her off. While walking. I cut her off walking, apparently. So pedestrian rage does occur, particularly in Manhattan during rush hour. That's the only time it's happened to me, but I've witnessed it other times as well.

Ignoring the fact that assault is not a logical consequence of having a difficult time finding a parking spot and that you don't know that this incident had anything to do with a fight over parking. Parking is just not that freaking hard in JC. How many more 1/2 empty decks would you like to be built?

There's plenty of parking. There's not so much free parking, but free parking is not free either, the costs are just hidden.

You know what would have prevented road rage? If they were both walking. It's hard to get into a 'driving dispute' when you're not driving.

I don't know where this happened but according to some on this board, I exaggerate about parking. I know of other instances that did not make the paper. In the meantime, we are building more buildings without adequate parking pretending those residents will not have cars. We are also ignoring the fact the city failed to place municipal garages throughout this city.

Where do you think it happened?

If there is no mention of the where, we all know where it happened. Let's not kid ourselves.

A Brooklyn man made his first court appearance today brutal ?road rage? charges in which one man allegedly held a woman down in a Jersey City parking lot while another man and a woman beat her in the face and body.

Bail for Terrance Tucker,32, was set at $50,000 with a 10 percent cash option when he appeared in Central Judicial Processing court in Jersey City this afternoon. He is charged with criminal restraint and aggravated assault in the July 2 incident, the criminal complaint says.

The incident allegedly began over a driving dispute between two vehicles and when the victim parked she was assaulted by the three occupants of the other vehicle. A female grabbed the victim and began punching her in the face, a male held her down and third man also punched the victim, Hudson County Assistant Prosecutor John Wojtal said in court.

The criminal complaint did not specify the location of the alleged assault.

Tucker allegedly grabbed ?the victim from behind restraining her arms for the purpose of committing an aggravated assault. The victim was unable to defend herself against (the female suspect) who was assaulting her about her face and body,? the criminal complaint says.

Tucker also allegedly struck the victim ?about the face and body along with ?the female? co-defendant, causing injuries to the victim?s face and body,? the complaint says.

Tucker also has an unrelated case pending against him before the grand jury on the charge of aggravated assault, court officials said, adding that he has two prior arrests.

Tucker, who appeared in court in street clothes with his hands cuffed behind his back, faces 10 to 20 years if convicted of the new charges.

No information was available on the others who may have been involved in the incident and Jersey City was not able to provide the police report today.

The complaint did not describe the nature or severity of the victim?s injuries.
