When someone is in that big of a hurry to get around me, I will always let them go. It's easy to say the Camaro driver was a douche, but maybe he was having a real emergency. Maybe a passenger in the car was having a heart attack, maybe his pregnant wife's water just broke - who knows? Besides, if he really is just a douche, now I have someone running interference for me. No skin off my nose either way.

The guy in the truck, in my opinion, was the far bigger ass hole. In Washington, he would have been breaking the law by hanging out in the left lane and pacing the semi. We've all been caught behind the clueless that are doing this without even knowing; they are simply distracted, not checking their mirrors, and just not paying attention to the world outside their car. That's frustrating enough. But when a guy does it on purpose, just to be an ass and make some kind of a point, it goes beyond frustrating. Our State Patrol has identified left lane camping as our number one cause of road rage, and has actually staged emphasis patrols to crack down on it.

Myself, if I were in the camera car, it would have been everything I could muster to not grab something heavy and blunt from that truck and re-arrange the pickup driver's face, beating him so freaking senseless that even he wouldn't be able to remember if it happened in the wreck or not.
