You also have the legal right to flip off other drivers.... it doesn't mean it is the right thing to do. Staying in the fast lane and not overtaking a vehicle when you have a string of cars behind you is extremely rude and liable to incite road rage in other drivers. It is better for everyone involved if the person holding up traffic in the fast lane slows down/speeds up to get around the vehicle they are passing. > To me it sounds like Luther is just being a good parent and > attempting to teach an immature childish driver a lesson in behaving > safe and respectful.

Slamming on the brakes for no apparent reason is highly dangerous with a tailgater... what happens if they can't stop in time, hit you on a corner, and throw you underneath that semi you're riding next to? Then they go flying across the median into oncoming traffic. Quite a lesson if you ask me. Especially for the innocent bystanders.
