So basically gave someone the middle finger on the road today for being a jerk.
I was going the speed limit and the car in front of me slowed down sharply, so I had to do the same. I noticed the car that had been weaving in and out of traffic who was right behind me, was waving his hands around in a an anger at what appeared to be muy sudden braking. I gave him the finger in return which resulted in a 5km tailgating and roadrage incedent in which he would not stop following me and kept signaling me to pull over. He looked like an utter psychopath.
I was considering pulling over but he looked like john cena on meth and im not sure that would have been a good idea. What could have happened? Should I worry about seeing him on the road in the future (since this was in my area of work/living)?
He could have probably yelled at you, and maybe try and hit you. I wouldn't be extremely worried. How big of a town do you live in? Just keep a look out for people following you. And if you do see him following you, call the police and/or drive to the police station.

I didnt get his license plate because I was quite shocked that this was happening at all, so perhaps next time if it happens, this will be the first thing I make sure to do.
im usually an extremely nice person, i was just having a bad day and did not expect that kind of reaction.

You should've driven slower to piss him off more.
but seriously, seeing drivers like this makes me wish I could own a gun in australia. Seriously. The fkn asshole criminals have them anyway!!!

You absolutely made the right choice in not pulling over. There is no way that could have ended in a productive way.
As for running into him again, don't worry about it if you live in a mid-sized city or larger. Even if you do, chances are he'll have calmed down.

Never pull over for shit like this, just keep driving. He wanted a fight, he wanted to "teach you a lesson" for "disrespecting him," because he probably has a 2-inch dick and his entire psyche is built on overcompensation.
It's unlikely he will remember you if he sees you again, because since this incident, there have probably been 4-5 other people who have triggered this guy's psychotic rage.
