if he brakes real hard as a result of being temporally blinded by your high beam, you are most probably gonna bump into him. then who's gonna be in trouble?

Real mature. But i'm guilty of doing that before. No point wasting petrol and getting my emotions all riled up.

i also got this encounter.

this blardee idiot SFH14X was driving slowly on lane 1. i went behind him, high beam, and he din filter to lane 2 to give way. no choice, i switch to lane 2 to overtake. he then accelerate to 140+ kph to block me from overtaking. later there're cars in front on lane 2 and i have to go back to lane 1. this SXH147 moron then promptly slow down to 100.

Are you giving others suggestions or

do you actually practice what you preach or

just kidding?

If the joker in front is really not doing it on purpose and suddenly some event occurs in front of his car that leads him to jam break.

I would like to be impressed that there is such a car in the world that can break in time and not to hit his car which is only 10 cm infront of yours.

I think even lambogini or koenisegg or bogatti cannot do that.

but if you manage to do that, I would like to kudos you.

The worst of the lot are those who don't signal before cutting into your lane.

What's so difficult about signalling?

Same here, road hogging is whoever maintains too much braking room and going slower than normal traffic flow.

But I see no point in dealing with them as you may never know if they're just lost and looking around for road signs, trying to keep their passengers for a longer time, feeling unwell, child about to vomit, carrying babies on board, or feeling unsure about a right turn.

It's not a big deal, overtaking solves the problem.
