Kill them with kindness. I realize how difficult a task this may be from time to time, but it's certainly the most effective means to relieving your anger and their stupidity. Offering words/actions/etc. in return only creates more tension between each party involved, and it never solves the issue at hand. Being nice rarely brings about resolution, either, but it will definitely make them stop and think for a moment, perhaps feel a bit remorseful for their blatant act of ignorance, and continue on in a *hopefully* safer and more peer-friendly manner. Even if that isn't the case, you will feel much better knowing that a scene was avoided and you are the better person in the battle. I hate to say all of this, as I know how much enjoyment can be obtained from a little revenge and exchanged words or actions. From experience, though, it's best to just let them have their way. I don't like to say it, and I know you probably don't like to hear it. That's my sermon for the day. Drive safely, and KEEP ON SAABING!!!
