Summary

Fifty-three-year-old Kenneth Pham Tran got a 60-day jail sentence for road rage gone wrong—intentionally brake-checking a semi-truck on Highway 101, then lying to 911 and his insurer to cover it up. The dashcam footage exposed his stunt, leading to felony charges for insurance fraud, vandalism, and reckless driving. The Insurance Commissioner warned that road rage costs everyone, while the DA told him to count to ten before making bad choices. Tran’s tab? Over $4,000 in restitution—and a lesson in why chaos doesn’t pay. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
