And a note from their physician saying they are physically and mentally well enough TO drive

next time someone behind you blows at you cause they think you are not moving fast enough, start to move quick then slam on the brakes. but only if you are alone with no kids in the car. when they hit you just sit there and dont move. it is their fault cause they hit you. so make the call to 911 have an ambulance take you to the hospital to get checked head to toe. tell them you hurt everywhere so it cost the other persons ins a ton. his rates will go thru the roof if he doesnt get dropped. they will think next time about blowing the horn.

no, it's the truth, if you lay on your brakes and the one behinds you smacks you, it's his fault, cause he was following to close.
The only time I've wanted to lay on my brakes is when I was driving and someone was following me from behind WAY to close.

She's right

I also want to slam on my brakes when someone is way too close. But I love my car. My car is shaped like a box so if they are too close then they are too close

LOL I know if you're rear ended it's that person's fault, I meant I couldn't believe he was suggesting I intentionally do that! For one it's insurance scamming, and 2 it's just wrong, period.

Do you have some kind of death wish?

It doesn't happen often but drivers have been known to be ticketed around here for plowing on the brakes for no apparent reason.

If you get so angry that you get mad at a person for simply blowing their horn at you, you have no business on the road.

Oh pls... like you haven't been honked at and got pissed about it. I have been known to say the same thing when I'm good and mad... but it's not like I'd ever really do it.

Going on the assumption the person who hits you even has insurance (or a license for that matter). We were just driving in stop and go afternoon traffic and the guy behind us wasn't paying attention and rear ended us so hard we had to use a wire coat hanger to keep our trunk shut before we could pull away.

The guy who hit us of course, had no insurance or license and was hauled off to jail. When we called our insurance they were pretty much like we could try to sue a guy who has no insurance but we probably wouldn't get very far. Thank God we didn't get injured, because trying to get any money for medical from the guy would've been a nightmare.

Point being is, sometimes it's just not worth it for the time or money for that matter. Plus, you could end up paying the ultimate price-your life. Not worth it. But, hey, imagine doing it all you want-that can be very therapeutic as well.
