I can be pretty belligerent, and if someone is being a total ass I will brake check them. I am pretty much always going at least the speed limit (except on the highway), and I don't feel any obligation to help other people break the law. If I get someone behind me on the highway with the passing lane open and they persist in following and move uncomfortably close I let off the throttle and see how long it takes for them to pass. Cell phone users are great for this crap.

What really pisses me off are people tailgating me when I'm on the motorcycle. No protection at all except my helmet. And I can't risk a proper brake check, the best I can do is flash the brake light with the front brake lever. Those people are crossing the line from being dicks to endangering someone else's life.

Give me a break.
