Sadly, yourself, the OP, and NCN are the only one's on this thread that don't get it.

No, I "get it" perfectly fine. And I can see right through your flimsy excuses quite well too.


But do go right ahead and continue to be a menace to society, and keep excusing others who act the same way.

The OP and NCN never will... I hold out hope for Omaha. I am guessing he/she has not read the entire thread, anyone who has (either masochists or comedy lovers) gets it.

The fact of the matter is many people tailgate, and do other illegal things.

Now, how does a rational person deal with it?

That is the crux of the matter.

No no, I've read the entire thread.

If you had read the entire thread, you'd see that I get it - and that I'm not advocating brake checking.

But let's be honest. A whole lot of you need to knock off the excuse making and stop promoting tail-gating. It's nothing short of idiotic.

Really?

Maybe you want to tell that to the guy that didn't like me driving only a little over the speed limit last month. After he rode my azz for a mile on a 2 lane road, he passed me and proceeded to brake check me for 2miles. I didn't try to take revenge, i just called him in to the P.D. and let them deal with it.

I would relish that moment. I would have PIT'd him.

OK, I gave you the benifit of the doubt, but you DO NOT get it. We are not advocating tailgating. And I have read the entire thread. Show me where anyone advocated it, besides a sarcastic response.

We are decrying violent actions as a way to deal with it.

Geez!
