What I love is when both lanes are completely empty as far as the eye can see. Here comes a speed demon from behind... instead of just getting over and blowing by you, he stays in your lane all the up to your ***... then changes lanes at the last second-passes-then jumps back over into your lane in front of you.
I call them "dead man driving".

I had an experience today in Austin on Mopac that had me ready to run this guy off the road.
I was in the middle lane with about 10 feet between me and the car in front of me.
These 2 freaking **** nuts come in their little Audi and completely cut me off...almost hitting the winch on the front of my Land Rover...the funny thing is that my winch would have ripped their little car to shreds...but anyway.
I flashed my highs, slammed the horn...and gave a few hand gestures.
They continue to cut other drivers off, and then pass the car infront of me and SLAM their brakes on trying to cause a wreck. They then started throwing **** out of their car at me and threatening me.
They followed me for a while, then I pulled over at a gas station, them following. I got out of my car and stormed towards them looking for a fight and they just took off....freaking infuriates me.
I think I have a problem with road rage.

Believe me, I wanted to. I was furious. I have a short temper, but these idiots really pushed me to that brink where I did not care what happened as long as I had my chance to get my fists into their faces.
I dropped a few P's and C's as they tore off...making me look the fool, hot head to the people standing and pumping gas.
Gibby!

Plummer is going to get screwed. The guy waited until he left to call the police, so now its his word against Plummer's, who doesn't really have all that good a rep anymore in the Denver area.

ENGLEWOOD, Colo. (AP) - Denver Broncos quarterback Jake Plummer was issued a summons for an alleged road-rage incident in April, Englewood police said Tuesday.
Investigator John Hoehler said Plummer was issued the misdemeanor summons Friday, after being contacted at his home in Cherry Hills Village.
The summons stems from a minor crash on April 20 in this suburb south of Denver.
A message left for Plummer through the Broncos was not immediately returned Tuesday night.
A man told authorities he was involved in a road-rage incident with the driver of a Honda. When the two cars stopped at a red light, the Honda's driver got out and kicked the front of the man's vehicle.
The driver then got back into his vehicle, put it in reverse and hit the front of the man's car, Hoehler said. A witness copied the license plate number of the gray Honda, which was listed to Plummer.
When contacted by police, Plummer said he was involved in a rear-end crash, not road rage.
"He went out and looked and didn't see any damage so he didn't report it," Hoehler said.
After he left the scene he told investigators he changed his mind and called 911 to report the accident and said he was told it would be taken care of.
Hoehler said there was a delay in issuing the summons because the officer in charge of the case was busy and didn't get a chance to pursue the case until recently.
No specific court date for Plummer has been given.
