'Teen Mom' pulls a gun on aggressive driver during explosive road rage incident
On Teen Mom 2, Jenelle Evans got into a heavy road rage situation with her 8-year-old son, Jace, in the front seat.
After an aggressive driver, who was tailgating Evans, sped up to get in front of her and then hit his brakes, Evans called 911 to report him, saying, “He was tailgating me the whole way, would not stop, and, um, then he races in front of me and purposely slammed on the brakes at 70-something miles an hour and almost, like, I almost got veered off the side of the road. Like, that’s how bad I had to slam on the brakes.” When the driver turned off the highway, Evans irresponsibly decided to follow him home and pull out her gun.
Evans drove up to the driver’s house and “accidentally” backed into his mailbox. The man, who was furious, then attempted to block her car so she couldn’t leave and even hit the front of her car as they screamed at each other.
Twitter obviously had something to say about Jenelle’s great parenting, as posters pointed out that she should not have had her 8-year-old son in the front seat in the first place, and she definitely should not have pulled out a gun in front of him. One person tweeted:
@Viacom @MTV @TeenMom, I’ve watched in horror as Jenelle: 1) pursued a man all the way to his private property, 2) ran over his mailbox, 3) verbally antagonized and 4) threatened him w/ a gun, 5) all while her underage son was present. #WTH #ChildAbuse #TakeHerOffThePayroll

Issues:
1. Her son being in the front seat (he should be in the back & possibly still a booster)
2. Her following the truck
3. Her pulling a gun
4. Her speeding recklessly
5. Her lying to police.
6. Her leaving a loaded gun in the car with her son alone.@MTV should be ASHAMED.— IzzieBiggs (@IzzieEBiggs) July 24, 2018
Jenelle Teen Mom 2 is an unfit parent. If someone is driving aggressive you don’t follow them home with your child in the car nor do you pull out a gun in front of him. Now we see why her mom does not want to give Jace back

The explosive confrontation led to Evans fleeing the scene, with the other driver following her. Things didn’t get better for the Teen Mom star when he took off just as the cops pulled her over.
Teen Mom 2 airs Mondays at 9 p.m. on MTV.
