Kim and Khloe Kardashian Konfront L.A. Driver

It takes a lot to get a Kardashian to snap, but one driver managed to do just that while driving behind two of the reality TV sisters in L.A. yesterday.
According to TMZ, Kim and Khloe were making their way down a busy street when a driver started trying to push her way into their lane. The Kardashians two felt that they were being intentionally run off the road, and so they finally cut the driver off, forcing her to pull over.
Khloe then walked aggressively up to the drivers' side door as Kim calmly but with purpose snapped photos of the car's license plate, which she then posted to her Twitter account:
This driver tried to hit us and run while video taping it. She works for CBS Sports. Wow drivers beware http://t.co/W1zORJCB

Part of the incident was captured on video by TMZ. The gossip site also notes that someone in the backseat of the non-Kardashian car was wearing a CBS Sports shirt and filming the whole incident. So far, their website hasn't posted any of the footage.
