[NBF823]

If someone actually flashed me with the high-beams, I would hit my hazards and let them pass, or move into the slow lane. I've only had that happen once - it was a police car trying to get a speeder several cars infront of me. But people typically don't, they often just tailgate.

I've been working on it - just maintain a constant speed and ignore the 'gaters. But it's difficult; to not drive in such a way to make sure the driver behind you isn't going to hit you - it's just good driving practice to watch and anticipate the capabilities of other's vehicals. Tailgaters ruin that. I even got rear-ended at a red light once - I saw the kid comming to fast, so I pushed in the clutch, and got ready to hit the brakes after he hit me so I didn't roll into the vehical infront of me. I think it's normal to be aware of whats behind a person's car. I know I have anger issues with them.

Once I was at a red light of a four lane(rt228). The light turned green and as I started to go(i was first in the slow lane), I caught a glimps of a silvery blue ford color four-door jump in the passing lane from the lane behind me, and begin to pass us all at a high rate of speed. I floored it to show some punk he wasn't going to tear around me in 'pap's lincoln. His fender got to my driver's side door when the cam and the boost came on in second, and I drove awayfrom him. I was on it till the rt79 off ramp traffic lane was comming up, and I didn't know if there was cars going to be comming and try to merge, so I let off - Good thing to; That lane jump and pass guy was a cop in an unmarked crown vic, not a kid in a lincoln.

I also walked down to the local bar last night, to finally get out. With work and school, my social life is seriously lacking, so I wanted to get out. Low and behold, I ran in to the dude in my last post who had the black 330i. I asked him what kind of cars he owned - he said his last four cars were BMWs. I asked him if he had a black 330i - he said his buddy had one. I told him about the incident with the tailgating - He denied it. He seemed like a nice guy. People "change" behind the wheel.
