It comes with the Car, unfortunately.. been happening to me since I drove my Mustang off the lot 6 years ago... even more so after it was visually modded. Sometimes I ignore them, sometimes if it is at a redlight I make them look like a fool... I rev my engine up, make some noise... the light turns green, they take off like a bat out of hell, and I'm still sitting there, and just ease off the line.

Happened to me and my buddy in his Challenger just this Saturday.. we were on our way home from the Dragstrip (<3 the H-town crew!).. we had a honda roll up next to us and start jumping, we laughed, shook our heads and pointed to the window paint from the drag strip.. he reved up his little weed whacker and off he went... lol

Well he finally goes and turns onto the street and gets in the right lane, while I go in the left lane. As I go to pass him again, he stares me down and not a nice stare either. So as I pass him, he guns it again and cuts me off! So I tell my friend to hang on cuz I'm not going to play with this crazy guy so I just hammer it! I fly around him and take off. He got stuck behind traffic and I didnt c him again until I turned onto the street my apt complex was on and he turned too!!! I told my friend to call my b/f (which is also her bro) and tell him that this guy followed me. My b/f is a deputy sheriff. Well I turned into my apt complex and he turned into the one across the street.. WTF is wrong with people? It was like he was trying to make me wreck?

Guess he was just jealous of a chick driving a better car then his..oh well, the camaro showed him who was boss and he got to read my license plate as I drove on by...."you just got SMOKED by a girl"

I let them go.........pride cometh before the fall. He was too proud in his Honda and would have gotten himself into trouble and taken you with him. Let the nutjob stay ahead of you and keep your distance. These knuckleheads aren't worth beatin traffic lights, going faster than you want to etc etc.

Glad you got home safe.

He tried to get you to "let 'er rip", and you took the bait....

People try that with me all the time, but I don't give them what they want, I let them get in trouble, not me thanks.

I'd rather have them in front of me where I can keep a nice distance instead of having them cramed up my a** and end up hitting me when I have to stop.
Plus, the following you home thing was a bit scary.
