I absolutely do not sympathize with Tripathi. Issaquah is full of horrible drivers and I'd never ever get into a discussion over a traffic situation that already resolved itself. People in rage will say anything they can think of, so if that was a "blonde woman" the man would still have been in rage, and have said something about her weight, car, whatever he could find. Don't argue with antisocial strangers or you will have to swallow their bitter nonsense. If the man hadn't been white, this article would not exist.
