My husband gives people the thumbs down rather than flipping them off from the car. He reports the thumbs down makes people even more mad

I used to drive like a maniac until I got a motorcycle.

Now, I'm super defensive and highly aware of aggressive drivers. I just get out of the way.

I accidentally cut someone off on the freeway last week (3 lanes turned into 2 and I was zoned out, I was driving all day). Dude started honking and raging on me, I could hear him telling me to pull over, so I just kept staring forward until he gave up. Normally I would have engaged.

    1. What kind of driver thinks someone is going to pull over for anyone other than a cop?

    2. That kind of driver is likely so unhinged that reasonable people should do everything in their power to avoid interaction. Reasonable people definitely should not pull over to talk with/fight with/be shot by that kind of driver.
