...stuck on the interstate in an accident related traffic jam about 20 years ago and I saw a semi driver block the far right emergency lane (on purpose) on the interstate so a car couldn't pass him on the right side to get to the exit near by...the driver of the car was yelling and screaming for the semi driver to pull back over...the trucker kept crowding the car more and more and nearly ran the car into the ditch...I saw the same car on the news that night,, the driver was distraught, his small child was choking to death in the car and he couldn't get by the truck to get to a nearby hospital...the little boy died in the parking lot at the hospital...so, everytime someone presses me in traffic, I always remember that father crying over his dead son who quite possibly would have lived had another driver not decided to teach the father a lesson on the road

Good post and absolutely right.
Trying to trick someone into doing something dangerous like running a red light, forcing them off the shoulder, etc....well, just sounds like one of those things that could have un-intended consequences.
We all have done stupid things when younger..like my stunt of stabbing the brakes when the guy was tailgating me on the interstate...but we're supposed to outgrow that stuff when we get older...IF we survive.
