A 73-year-old male cyclist in Utah received a court fine after throwing a angry tantrum on a young driver before yanking open the man’s car door in the parking lot of a skate park and calling the police on him.
The drama ended days later with the 22-year-old driver getting off the hook while the older man was charged with disorderly conduct.
Gary Peacock was ordered to pay $160. Pierce Kempton, the man in the car, saw his $130 fine dismissed after he was initially accused of passing a cyclist too closely.

Peacock tried to claim Kempton got “too close” to him, however dashcam footage showed the driver swerving out of the way to create more room for the biker to pass.&
The incident took place on Sept. 28, and four days later Kempton took the dashcam video to Park City headquarters to have prosecutors see what happened for themselves.
It didn’t turn out well for Peacock.
More than a week after the incident, Kempton posted a separate video of the altercation to social media, where it quickly went viral.
