During my morning commute, I was following a small pickup truck with one of those huge caps with no windows, the type that makes them use side mirrors as your only means of visability rearward.. We both take the same exit, and that exit quickly breaks into two lanes. Since this driver was going grandma speeds, I decide to go by him on the right. Right in the middle of my pass he starts coming over toward me... I put up my left hand as I goosed it and went. At the traffic light, at the end of the ramp, he pulls along side and starts to berate me about me "coming on the inside of him when he had his directional on" (which he didn't). I said, "first, you didn't have it on, and second, once I'm in the lane, you can't come over anyway". We go back and forth for about 10 seconds, and then he says "f''in piece of sh!t Honda"...my "caveman IQ" alarm went off and I figured with another neanderthal in the truck, this was a losing battle. So I put my right hand, made a "talking motion" with it and flipped my shield down, waited for green and made my turn.
I'm still pissed about it, but what are you going to do? It's just a reminder of what absolute moronic cagers are driving our streets.
