Default Guy gave me a brake test today. A$$hole (long)

I am in the left lane this Sun am (very light traffic) doing about 80 and some big black suburban is in left doing about 70 -75. 2 cars in middle lane, one in right. I come up about 2 cars in back of him (not right on his ***) and flash high beams 2x. I am figuring it is soccer mom on the phone. Driver signals to go into middle lane and starts to pull into middle lane and I started to get on the gas again and he gives me a brake test. what a F%#*ing idiot. So I slam on brakes and and then go around him and we exchange middle fingers. I am up ahead of him and he is hauling this big black turd up in back of me. I came up to some traffic and was doing around 70 - 75 and he is now in middle lane and getting close to me moving over like he is gonna ram me. I took off and, finally, his exit is coming up and he throws some stuff at me candy or something that hits my window. Doesn't look like any damage or anything, but who in his right mind would risk getting rear ended, which could have happened very easily. Certainly he wouldn't have had much damage but I probably would've slammed him and that POS would've rolled with that high center of gravity.

Was I wrong to high beam him ? I hear in LA you get shot at for high beaming people. I am so tired though of trailing some idiot on their cell phone and then doing gymnastics to pass them on right.

Unless he had a gun, he would have been in for a battle - I am a 2nd degree black belt and carry 3 sets of nunchuks in the cabin and a bo staff and 2 swords in the trunk.

I highbeam left lane campers all the time. US drivers suck at lane discipline.

WTF were you doing flashing your brights if it was "very light traffic"?

Default Overall it was light, here I was blocked and the situation didn't appear to be moving so there would

an opening to pass left right or wherever

Default after driving in europe for a couple weeks, it was very difficult to come back here...

where lanes apparently mean nothing. it was easier for me to drive in 3 different countries, on unknown roads, with signs in foreign languages.

why don't people understand the simplest of driving rules?

Default 2nd that ^^^ I had a similar situation happen a couple months ago. ->

A minivan came from the right lane to the center
and then in the left lane and cut me off.
He had to have seen me coming because it was
at night and I had my HIDs on. Or he didn't look.
I had nowhere to go. And I was flying low as
usual. I am real glad I upgraded my brakes.
Becuase I had to shave a lot of speed down to
55 mph in a real short distance. Am I the only
one who looks over his shoulder to see who's
there before moving over ? I has no time to flash
as I was busy braking hard. The right lane opened
up and I flew by him on the inside.
I have the Euro blind spot mirrors yet to be put
on. I hate minivans !
