I used to drive like a maniac until I got a motorcycle.

Now, I'm super defensive and highly aware of aggressive drivers. I just get out of the way.

I accidentally cut someone off on the freeway last week (3 lanes turned into 2 and I was zoned out, I was driving all day). Dude started honking and raging on me, I could hear him telling me to pull over, so I just kept staring forward until he gave up. Normally I would have engaged.

Drive like everyone else on the road is trying to kill you.

  1. What kind of driver thinks someone is going to pull over for anyone other than a cop?

  2. That kind of driver is likely so unhinged that reasonable people should do everything in their power to avoid interaction. Reasonable people definitely should not pull over to talk with/fight with/be shot by that kind of driver.
