All I can say is be careful when you flash your brights. Last time I "brighted" someone was back in 1994 (the night before the Northridge earthquake - don't ask how I remember). Anyway, it turned into a case of road rage me vs him... I know it was dumb... Anyway, I finally passed him, and gave him the "bird". He responded by pulling up on my right, where my wife was sitting, and throwing a full hamburger at my passenger side window - I know what it was because the patty and pickle stuck. Anyway, a few months later there was a police-type show where a husband and wife were driving along, and a similiar road rage incident occured. But in the show the other driver shot the guy's wife through the passenger window. When I saw that I was creeped out. Obviously, we were lucking that only a hamburger was thrown at the car... Anyway, I haven't "brighted" anyone since... You never know what kind of nut is in the other car. Oh, and by the way, I started this whole mess by tailgating him for a few minutes, then I "brighted" him... For what it is worth - Be careful.
