One time I was passed too close by a jacked-up truck, which I easily caught at the next red light. I gave the driver a top-volume harangue all about how messy a bike and rider can get in a wheelwell, going on about blood and gore and bones, scratched paint and punctured tires as he looked increasingly nauseous. I kept an eye on the lights, and when it got to yellow, I finished up with "And that's not to mention the PAPERWORK!" Even when I didn't catch the offenders, the chase was the best way to deal with the adrenalin.
