Default What do you do when someone almost hits you?

Just yesterday Frankie and I were riding around town he was up ahead of me about 50yds. or so. We were just cruizing down Spring Hill Dr. doing like 45-50. All of a sudden this Corolla starts to pull out in front of me to turn left. I of course jam on the breaks and turn slightly left. Luckily the corolla stopped and was only about halfway through my lane. I managed to slow to about 15-20 by time i passed by him. I was so in shock all i could do was give him the finger. I though about chasing him down but then what.. . What have any of you guys done when something like this happens.

This only works if a car is tailgateing you, as for someone who pulls out, i've actually chased people down before and when we got to a light pulled up and been like WTF WAS THAT ABOUT!!!!!! On the other hand i always expect someone to pull out in front of me. As for spring hill dr fuck that, a good friend of mine died on that road a while back, and i've had some close calls too. I hate the old people in the hill

I get the fack off the streets & thank god & didn't get hit. Almost happened to me a while back. I wanted to go give them a piece of my mind but then realized how much of waste of mind that would have been

So you can get in front of a car and just spray and it works like magic? That's wrong but funny!

Actually it will get into their vents and eventually make it to them, then all hell breaks loose
