Ok
If someone tailgates, cuts you off or does something else that equally annoying....what do you do? Maybe you:
Shake your head and click your tongue
Shake your fist at them or give em the finger
Yell a list of swear words a mile long
Get the clublock out from the easy reach spot and chase the bastards down
?????????????
Tell me your normal reaction

Every once in a while I flip them off but usually I "wish them well". I asume they must be having some horrible emeergency that requires them to act like an asshole, and wish them well.

Well, the last time some did something stupid I burst into tears because I'm hormonal...but that's another story..lol. Usually I shake my head and say whatever. Unless they do something really bad. Then I flip them off.

I'll usually lay on the horn, give them a dirty look, or occasionally flip them off. I guess it depends on what exactly they did...and there are usually some swear words to follow...

I used to be a real a****** about it. I would get all worked up about it, honk the horn swear at them and get all upset. I then read one too many reports of people getting in serious car accidents and other stuff when they got worked up over things like that so I have managed to learn to let it go.
I am still a fairly aggressive driver and have been learning to tone that down a bit as well.

I just call them a "cockhead" and hope they'll hook my bull-bar on the way through.

I ususally just shake my head and wish them well. I feel I should be forgiving since I am like an old lady driver and probably piss people off all the time.

If they're tailgating, I use my brakes. When the least expect it.
Otherwise, I just get competitive.

I’m with osuche for the tailgaters. I’ll usually make exaggerated head movements looking in my mirrors first. If they don’t get the hint, I’ll show them some abrupt brake lights. That normally stops it from looking like I’m towing them. I have a friend that liked to use the hand brake with his thumb on the button to slow it down without any lights until last year when he got hit in the ass doing it. LMAO
Most other offenses are taking them away from me so I just let them go…………. and pray that I’ll see them pulled over ahead by a cop or find them tangled with somebody else, so I can stop and laugh at them. I only got to do that once, but it’s given me a lot of tolerance with the hope.
I have a great sight gage about young driving assholes and old driving assholes I’ll tell you if we ever get to meet. :grin:

I wish them well because they are obviously rushing home to their sick children!
and if that doesn't work
I imagine them being pulled over down the street and getting a ticket. Please note I said "imagine". Sheesh! lol

Tailgaters....I usually take my foot off the gas. I apply it again when I see they notice I have slowed down and the anger starts to form on their faces. I then ease up off the gas again and so on and so on and so on. I thought one guy's head was going to explode one day, he got so red faced.
Secondly if I get a face to face chance I ask them what store the bought their license from.....ohhh...the sputtering and spewing makes me laugh!

Tailgaters I usually give the option of passing me, if they don't take the hint I may play brake light bingo with them...
There is an intersection near the house where many people seem to be completely unaware of the stop sign there...I used to have to pass this way every day to pick up the boy from daycare, & learned to be wary of the ignoramuses...but from time to time I would have to come to a screeching stop with a few close calls, & since I had the window open anyway, fear & adreniline would overcome the brain censor that usually keeps my mouth shut with the kid in the car, & let loose with a string of creatively foul slurs of these peoples' IQ & family history...

I used to brake-check them but now I just give them the finger as they zoom by. Mind you, I live in the country. Don't have to worry about getting shot at, just having a cow pie thrown...assuming they have one handy.
