T-Bone them on your motorcycle going about 90.
You can only do that once though.

Run'em off the road and just drag their a$$ out of the car and kick the **** out of them............
Then politely invite them to church, get back in your car and sling gravel all over them as your driving away. (giving them the finger)
I think they'll get the message.[winking]

If you’re trying to get even on the road then you’re the problem
and that GD navy Ohioans drag with them behind their cars and trucks down I-75 through KY and TN between May-September every year.
I think it should be legal to shoot left-laners who won’t even drive the speed limit, and refuse to change lanes. :uzi: .
Zipper merging: It's what you're should do so stop being the pi$$ed off idiot waiting in the long line. Life is too short for that.

Apparently some of the do-good truck drivers never got this memo—as I saw one on 64 blocking off the entire right lane about 1/2 mile from where everyone had to funnel into the left lane
We have a lot of tourist down here from all over the country. The worst seem to be from New England with Massachusetts (probably Boston) being the worst of the worst

My #1 pet peeve is inconsiderate people. Living in E. Ky tries my patience to the limit as well as on the interstate where people are oblivious to what's going on around them and behind them.
I've been working on my road rage for years and sometimes I lose the battle and end up doing something that scares my wife, who scares easily anyway. It's not the fact that they are slowing me down that makes me mad, but the fact that someone can be so inconsiderate to other people.
I have to remind myself not to react to how idiots are or I become one.

California drivers may shoot other drivers on the highway but I find them to be rather courteous behind the wheel in Orange County. Michigan otoh...
How about the aggressive on-rampers? You’re already on the expressway, and the on ramping car just hits the gas expecting you to get out of the way. No. Now I just act like they’re not there.
It only took me an hour and a half to get home from 2 exits away on the Snyder tonight. It was really great.
I'm not as amped up these days. If you're driving slow in the fast lane, you will either have my grill in your rearview or someone else's and most of the time, your mission to police the left lane will fail because the interstates down here are fairly open and you can usually go all the way right to get around people.
Plus everyone in Florida drives around while cleaning a gun so you may gesture or yell but unless you want to get shot in the face, best to keep yourself in the car and worry about other ****.

So you are one of those guys that has an open lane on the left but don’t get over to allow merging traffic from the ramp on?
The driver on the expressway has right of way. If there’s space to move over, that’s a courtesy they can extend to merging traffic if they choose but they are not obligated to. Personally, I see no reason not to move over if there’s room.
However, the merging driver is the only one who is obligated to yield. It’s the responsibility of the merging driver to adjust the speed / timing of their entry so that they fit into an open spot.
If someone merges in a way that forces a driver on the expressway to move out of the way or slow down, then it is the merging driver who is being rude and not the driver on the expressway.
I prefer this to people who slow way down or stop on an entrance ramp risking a rear end job or making it harder for you to enter behind them as you're going so slow. I mean you are supposed to be accelerating on an on-ramp. And yes, I'm an aggressive on-ramper. What's so hard about letting up on the gas to let someone in?
Right. In Louisville, people will come to a complete stop at the end of the ramp from 264 onto 65 North, despite having well over half a mile until their lane ends. So instead of a half mile line of cars in that merging lane, the half mile line of cars back up past the 65 South and Preston highway exits and sometimes all the way onto 264 itself, all because dumbasses don't use the road as it was designed to be used.
If I’m going “expressway speed”, and I’m being “overtaken” by an aggressive on-ramper, it’s up to them to regulate speed. It’s not up to me to turn my head around to make sure I can move over in a split second because Ricky Bobby wants to get on I-5 in a hurry. That’s on him.
If there's an open lane OR you see an oncoming onramp with a solid line of cars heading towards a merge point and you don't get over, you're a dumbass.
I agree with this. Most of the time I see people wanting to get on and they’re being aware that they need to yield and being safe —I’ll totally make room for them. It gives me time to react and move over accordingly.
If I’m on an expressway doing 70, and some dude flies off a cloverleaf into the xway doing 75..tough break
big city has nothing to do w it. I’ve driven in Philly, Miami, Detroit, Chicago, SF etc. I’ll move over-only if I have time and room.

Well, the rule is to get up to expressway speed to merge more easily. I always try to be courteous and move over, but I'm rarely in the extreme right lane unless I'm preparing to exit.
Well you should learn how to drive if you think point #2 in inconsiderate or discourteous.
And how about you stop being such an ******* by giving people the finger and cussing them out? Going to get yourself shot one of these days doing that stupid ****.
Well actually maybe you should keep doing it then, maybe the road rage incident will mean one less idiot and bad driver on the road.
You should have your mirrors set so that you don’t have to look over your shoulder, basically not have a blind spot...
