The basic rule is, if you want want something, ask nicely.
yeah i do that too, or I try to match the speed of the person in the next lane and box them in. One of these days I think I am going to get shot doing that.

But it works way better if you wave all crazy like.

It's fun to wave and smile real big at someone who just flipped you off to see them get confused and wave back.

That works for Evan too. Of course, it is probably because he is a ginger and they are scared of him

I laugh because I did that yesterday on my way to the train station. They looked all horrified that they'd flipped me off

Heh.. last time I smiled and waved to someone that was being a douche they almost ran into an oncoming car in a fit of rage.. which leads me to my next driving related annoyance.

If you have to drive 35 in a 45 and start slowing down for your turn 1 minute in advance, its probably time to hang up the keys for good. I'm tired of trying to figure out wtf you're doing, and so is the guy behind me. Damn you, scumter, for your high retiree population.

we had a woman in wis do that. (one of many) she wound up being run off the road and died when her car rolled over. is it really worth risking your life just to impede someone who's just trying to get somewhere? maybe they are late, maybe they just like to drive fast. the point is you are not a cop nor the highway monitoring system. it always baffles me why people will take a situation where they could move over and the faster person will fly by causing harm to neither of your lives, and turn it into a situation where you could die, they could go to jail and all for what? the satisfaction of saying you yanked somebodies chain today?

leave the highway monitoring to those with badges and lights.
