This is for "CHER OZ" in the SC300...

To the other person in an SC300 on 87N this morning (black/dark green with California tags "CHER OZ"):

Flashing your brights at me to get me to yield the fast lane is fine. However, it resulted only in you tailgating the guy in front of me. I watched you proceed in this fashion for quite a while in your Quest to Be In Front (TM). You may have realized later the futility of this endeavor when, 5 miles up the highway, I was one car behind you at the stoplight.

Also, I don't recommend tailgating in general, or in 87N commute traffic in particular, as leaving a gap the width of a gnat's butt between you and the next vehicle is not conducive to avoiding a collision at 40mph when the other person brakes suddenly (which you probably noticed was pretty common).

Y'all are making me and other SC drivers look bad.

I'm curious as to the meaning of your license plate, "CHER OZ". Is that a creative spelling of "shiraz"? You might want to drink less of that before you get behind the wheel in the mornings. Thanks.

RIght on. For situations similar to yours, I'd like to have one of those gizmos that consists of a boxing glove attached to a spring, installed in the rear bumper, only to be unleased at the touch of a button to smash a tailgater's hood. Your rational reaction, however, is probably much safer.

That's exactly what my friend does, esp. while driving on highways. Ironically he's a born-again Christian but that's another story

Ah, a Methodist, I see . . . conducting a baptism. Baptists have been working on a suitable "full immersion" technique for highway baptism since the days of Phillip (Acts 8:36-39) - with little practical success.
