Is that why you slam on your brakes? Don't give us this crap about you being a nice driver. You should have your car taken away till you can act like a big boy. Is "slaming on your brakes" a way of not "blocking" anyone?

On many an occasion, if some sh*thead cannot get around what is a sh*thead? Your are a child in a adults world! If you are man enough to use a big bad word, then spell it without "*"!

If you're speeding due to an emergency, at least have the Dead men don't testify. In court I'll just say you were crazy, and trying to run me off the road. Then sue your family for damages. Ha! Ha! If you want to play games on the road then go to Malabu Grandprix (a go-cart track).

Is slaming on your breaks one of those courtesys your are talking about?
