I call to the whole thing. Motortrend already proved that the mustang has lousy brakes. This couldn't have happened.

Haha... I help every day. But there is a right way and a wrong way to do it. I can hear the conversation now:

Officer: "sir, do you know why I pulled you over?"
Helper: "Well, I'm not exactly sure."
Officer: "I observed you driving in a reckless manner attempting to catch up to the guy in the Mustanf"
Helper: "Ya, well, he was being a dewsh bag!"
Officer "and your response was to act like a bigger dewsh bag?"
Helper: "You should have stopped him, not me!"
Officer: "It is difficult for us to catch everyone, today, you are the one I happened to catch."
Helper: "this is "
Officer: "please note the court date and time on the bottom of the citation. This violation requires a mandatory court appearance. If you have any questions, you may call..."

Reviewing this thread I am reminded of two sage expressions:

"An armed society is a polite society"

"A soft answer turneth away wrath"

Which one to choose here?.....

In my professional opinion, it is much safer to slow down and let the idiot get far away from you so his ridiculous lack of driving skills doesn't hurt you or your car.
Yup. You were just as at fault when you decided to chase after him.

I am curious also as to how one may cut someone off in the "most bogus way." Is there a slightly less bogus way to do it?
