Intimidation Factor: Chevy Suburban - 0, Honda Civic - 1
Idiot loafing along in the left HOV lane of 270 south heading towards the beltway. It's about thirty minutes ago. It's not HOV so he was fine being in the lane, except for the fact that the huge, flat-bed Jerr-Dan tow truck was going faster than this idiot. I get over to the middle lane and get behind the Jerr-Dan guy. I'm minding my business.
HOV lane is ending and merging into my lane. Mr. Suburban decides to pull a "zOMG lane's ending!" maneuver and tries to punch it to get in front of me. Ordinarily, I wouldn't care except for the fact that he was loafing along in a lane that he had no business being in to begin with. I speed up, he starts to move over in to me as if to try to intimidate me to move over a lane. I don't budge and continue speeding up quickly racing for the rear bumper of the tow truck. Lane finally ends, Suburban is next to me but has nary a space to get in between my front bumper and the tow truck's rear bumper. Jackass Suburban has to nail the brakes REALLY hard to get right back where he belonged in the first place...behind me. I got on my brakes pretty hard too to resume a normal following distance to the tow truck in front of me, so it made it even more difficult for Mr. Suburban to slow down. I was already in third gear ready to punch it and switch over a lane had Mr. Suburban's brakes not been sufficient enough to get behind me.
Why he did all that, I have no idea. He brought that entire situation on himself. The tow truck and <b>I</b> were already passing him at a comfortable pace such that by the time the lane ended, all he had to do was merge over, not even let off the gas. Instead he chose to try and intimidate me.
I hate idiot drivers. Also, if you're going to try to intimidate someone, make sure you can actually follow through with it, otherwise, just continue loafing along.

That would **** me off...
You should've used your wiper fluid until it ran out to annoy his azz. LOL.
I despise slow drivers on the left lane. When I was younger (10 years ago), I used to get in front of them. slam my brakes then go really slow. That was my revenge.
