I assume you were driving in Southern California when this happened.... ;^)
I'm from there and have never seen more un-forgiving drivers in my life. Now
that most of the Cali drivers are here in the NW, I'm having to adjust and use
my middle finger more than my right foot.

Just to further digress...
I was driving a nice twisty road at a brisk pace when suddenly a
Cadillac sedan got in my way. I followed this gent at a polite
distance for several miles (awaiting a passing opportunity). So after
chugging along at a mind numbing pace I had a passing opportunity.
And... you guessed it... I hit 80 mph and he didn't let me round.
Next opportunity to pass I honked my horn and flashed my lights to be
sure he knew I wanted around. I only made it to 65 before I ran out
of room, but still he did not let me round. I finally came to my
senses and realized he was just being a bastard, so I pulled off at a
scenic overlook and enjoyed the views for a few minutes, and then
continued on my drive.
The world is full of people that enjoy trying to assert their will on others.
Peace, Love, and Spridgets,
Trevor
