Military member James Ahn was driving with a friend in Fremont, California, this month when a woman on the road behind him began to drive erratically.
He tried to let her pass, but that didn't satisfy her.
"When I moved to the next lane, she started driving crazy as if she would hit my car,'" he tells Raw Story. He asked his friend to start filming in case they got in an accident.
In the video, the woman screams, "This is my country!" while pulling on the sides of her eyes. "She started racial harassment knowing that we were recording," Ahn says.
“Oh my God, Chinese ugly, ugly Chinese,” she continues.
"I was in shock the whole time," he says. He's used to crazy drivers in California, but "it was very shocking when she started mocking Chinese out of nowhere..." Ahn, who's in the Air Force Reserve, is originally from South Korea.
Ahn, who tried to file hate crime charges, has a message for her.
"Do not disrespect anyone by their race!" The New York Post reported that police say she won't face charges.
"They said she will not be charged as a crime cause she didn't say any life threatening words like I'm gonna kill you," Ahn tells Raw Story.
