Whatever

Where I grew up, those were the cars with shattered windows and bullet holes in the rear fenders. I miss New Orleans sometimes. People in Ohio are polite drivers (for the most part), but there is always some asshole that has to make me check to see if my brake lights are working. I don't give a single airborne fornication, go ahead and hit me. I could use the time off.
Somewhere there is a tree working hard to produce oxygen for you to live, NOW GO APOLOGIZE TO IT!
Re bad drivers:
Arrrrraaaggh... Don't get me started on tail-gaters, tail-pipe-sniffers, number-plate-wipers, rear-window-cleaners. If I had an extra coat of paint on my car some of these drivers would be up for an insurance claim, they drive that close to my rear end. Those type of drivers are like lost sheep, or elephants hanging on to each others tail. I'm certain it's a mummy's comfort zone thingy with those drivers.
Sometimes I just want to step hard on the brakes.
The missus knows me well, we have niggly comments about this while I drive. We'll be driving along an I'll start bleating like a sheep. Baa baa, baa-ram-you (up the rear). We have a tail pipe sniffer dear....
The thing that irks me the most is the fact that if a dog, child chasing a ball, or elderly person steps on the road, I get to swerve around the obstacle, but the tail-gater behind me has zero reaction time and wipes out the pedestrian. What for ?!!! Why drive that close?
I've said it gazillion times to my boys : "you have the entire continent of Australia to drive in, don't drive up someone elses rear end".

i travel on the freeway to work everyday at 100km per hour.the only thing that used to worry me were the tailgaters.
then i found a cure,i went into the auto electricians and got them to fit a push switch linked to my brake lights .now i still do a 100 and watch the tailgaters tyres smoke in my rear view mirror
As someone who it took around 2M miles to figure out I was at best an average driver, you may want to consider that you have far more experience than the lot you share the road with and maybe cut your fellow travelers some slack.
I only say that to hopefully prevent you from doing some of the really idiotic things I did before I figured that out.
Re : Tail light push switch.
That is brilliant... I'm going to give you the Macguyer-of-the-week award for innovation.
You can bet I will be doing something similar in the not too distant future.Along with wiring up my electric windows for when the car ignition is turn off. It peeve's me having to turn the ignition on to wind the electric windows up in the vehicle.

That's so old skool , Steve McQueen did that back in his days of street racing, It's in some off the documents of his life. He was more of a gearhead racer then an actor, acting just paid for more of his racing.............................
I can still watch Bullitt on any day...............
