Well this requires a bit of a hardware upgrade.. find the loudest horn you can and install it. Then all you need is patience and decent eyesight. When they are taking a drink of coffee or trying to talk on their cell phone..


BYORK

And then all thats left is to point and laugh :D :lol:

I usually find some trash in the bin that I keep attached to the passanger side of the center consol an throw it into one of their windows at a redlight. Then honk, give a finger and blow them away :lol:

Whenever someone is tailgating me, and there's nobody directly ahead of me, I like to shift into a gear where I'm revving at around 3000-3500rpm. Then I hit the brakes for a split second (hard enough to make it look like I'm going to brake HARD), after which I keep my foot lightly on the brake pedal, just so the brake lights are on. Then I floor it, and try to catch the look of confusion on the guys face haha.

Haven't done it to any SUVs yet. Funny thing is I have mainly done it to ricers lol.

I haven't had that experience with the MX-3 yet, but I am sure it will come. I get a lot of idiots when I drive my Monte and it's a boat in comparison. I have no idea why some little cars pull out in front of me when I am driving it because I could squish them like a bug but I don't want to damage my car in the process. As far as SUV's being dinks with people driving little cars, I just figure that they have as much space between their ears as they do on the road in their vehicle. Their superiority complex will catch up with them, let's just hope no one gets hurt. People drive those things to prove their economic status, and like to look down on others...just my 2 cents worth though..

I particularly hate it when someone comes up behind you and flashes their brights when you're behind other cars or you're in the 'slow/turn' lane. I just let off my gas and let them get pissed. Or if I'm in a really vindictive mood I may just flick them off and do the aforementioned...

When I had my GS, if I had the sunroof open and I was chewing gum/eating sunflower seeds, I'd just give them a nice little toss to their windshields.

i had a ford probe ride my a-- one night and i had brake checked him 4 times and he kept getting closer, so i took off and whipped around a corner, stopped my car and opened my hatch to grab my baseball bat. the probe came around the corner, saw me opening my hatch, stopped, backed up and got hit my an oncoming car. ever since then i just wave the car on around.

HAHAh wow..

Yah if they're really riding up my a-- then i slam the brake, usually quite hard, to scare the s--- out of them.

Then, if they try to pass me, i change lanes OR pull up beside another slow moving car and box him in.

If i'm in heavy traffic on the freeway and theres someboyd going slow in the fast lane right beside a car going slow in the slowlane, then i wait until i can get ahead, slow down to 30 and let everybody flyby, and when the guy behind me goes to pass me, i speed up and fly by him, leaving him in the slow lane.

I'm such a b----.

OH, and for the record, the only time i was actaully rear ended was by a van. I was stopped at a red light, i figure she hit me doing at least 60km/h. I have 7 grand damage, but i didnt' even crack the bumper. My car lost a coupel inches, but you can BARely tell.

if the above mention doesn't say it - DON'T TAILGATE


also a quick call to the police station with the plate number, and saying that they are tailgating and you think you saw them throw a beer bottle out the window - might work good too...........even funnier when you see them get pulled out of their suv and made walk too the line :D :D
