All was not well last night on Divisadero Street, with one man’s apparent rage against the ride-hail machine sparking an impromptu jousting match that would have made any Renaissance Faire devotee proud. At around 7:45 p.m., a man began yelling and walking through traffic at the intersection of Divisadero and Hayes Street—a typical sight were it not for his armaments. Swinging two large wooden poles, it wasn’t long before he found something objectionable. In this case it just so happened to be an apparently passenger-less Uber driving south through the intersection on Divis.
The man struck the Uber driver’s car with his poles—perhaps believing it to be the steed of his rival—prompting the driver to abandon the car mid-intersection and charge the Western Addition Don Quixote. The driver managed to grab one of the tinder spears, and it is at that point that the above video begins.
Perhaps realizing that this dragon was in fact a car, and that it had a now very angry owner, the man attempted to flee—but the Uber driver wasn’t having it and gave pursuit. It was shortly thereafter that the police arrived and promptly handcuffed both men (although witnesses quickly clarified who the driver was and police soon released him).
And just like that, balance was restored to the plains of the Western Addition— that is until the unrelated car crash on Fulton and Divis around 20 minutes later.
Perhaps people took our advice about getting lit at The Mill a little too seriously?

Si te viste involucrado en un accidente, del que tú no eres el responsable y además saliste herido, debes contactar de inmediato a nuestros abogados de lesiones personales; Abogados De Accidentes Ahora En San Bernardino, para obtener la ayuda que necesitas.
No tienes ninguna razón para luchar solo contra las compañías de seguros para que te den, lo que por ley, te corresponde. Sabemos que es muy estresante y complicado lidiar con todas las facturas del hospital, las compañías de seguros llamando a diario, los papeles tan complicados de los que jamás estás seguro si debes firmar o no y un sin fin de trámites más.

In this instance, it so happened that an Uber was passing through the intersection on Divis heading south, seemingly without any passengers. See: Brownstone townhome renovations
