One time in Hayward, CA my then-girlfriend and I were stalked through town by a tweaker in a big pickup truck, us in an old Mazda 3. All I did was accidentally make eye contact in the parking lot, sort of clocked the gearface and then minded my business but he took umbrage somehow. Probably chased us for a few miles through her old neighbourhood. I even tried a lame little fakeout with my turn signals, but neither that car nor my driving skills were up for a French Connection reenactment and I think he eventually gave up because chasing me was too pathetic. Bet he would have kicked my shit in, if I actually put up a fight.
If you ever find yourself in a situation like this, your best bet is to go to the police station, public library or major store chain. Go somewhere very public. At the very least never go home or anywhere in your usual rounds.
Based on the Mazda 3 I’m a hell of a lot older but I grew up in Hayward, went to Moreau High School on Mission Blvd. Nice to see a rare mention of my old town online! Glad the weird dude who followed you gave up.
My wife went to Moreau too! She switched to Logan as soon as she could though, still keeps in touch with a friend or two though. I loved my time in Haystack.

Dunno. It was probably an off duty cop.
