I think the more likely reason, is he swam in a dirty gene pool as youngin'.

There is nor "reason" for this type of behavior. It wouldn't matter what this guy was driving, he just a an unstable human. You did a much better job of handling the situation then I would of. I would walked right over to the guy and had a very frank conversation that would have involved me putting my finger right on his nose while talking.
