I would not do it.

Most areas have a hotline to report aggressive, or road raging drivers.
Police can intercept in under 5 minutes and many times they loose their license since they typically are raging against everyone.
I have learned long ago that you can’t worry about what other people think,
Especially when it comes to doing the right thing, they can and will find a reason to be enraged no matter what and placating them serves no purpose except to Extend how long they can continue on creating issues in society .
In my mind “road rage” should be punishable by execution, as it can result in multiple murders over something that is completely unimportant.
Imagine, there are people who believe that if a moving object that is following the law deserves death by their hand because another moving object thought it might have to slow down slightly. I’m sure in the history of mankind no greater injury has ever occurred.
Not sure how we came to this point but placating aggressors does not work, so no sense worrying about it.
