[QUOTE="J.P., post: 1609401, member: 6"] My turn? Okay, but first I'd appreciate it if you could extend me the courtesy of explaining this one: (in red) :scratch: When/where did I proclaim [I]anything[/I] of the sort, and further, affirm the notion that I am in any way an "aggressive" driver? Golly, I thought I was offering a rather senseable solution to the matter.... One guy courteously yields to the other guy needing thru', and the other guy doesn't tailgait. I mean, I *thought* that was my intention, and as I go back and read it I am at a loss to see how trying to make "everyone happy" is even mildly characteristic behavior of a "bully"... In reality the "brake checker" is indeed himself taking an offensive approach. While that appears to be your opinion and certainly one way to look at it, an argument [I]could[/I] very easily be made to show that the "nosegaiter" is in fact the initiator...and that the "nosegaiter" is driving passive/aggressively. (considering both have shown to be true in some cases) Aggressively and/or intentionally blocking someone who needs thru' is definitely indicative of "bullying" behavior. But before we get into any of that perhaps you could define...for me...exactly what constitutes an "aggressive driver". Considering the varying degrees/definitions folks are likely to have, clearing that up for me by stating your personal definition would help me in any further explanation...You know, so I know where you're coming from....and whether [I]or not[/I] you are unreasonably overboard.
