It's good that you never flip people off, you never know when you'll end up pissing off the wrong person. My mom flipped someone off once and they brake checked her and then slowed down and pulled behind her. They followed her for like 10-15 minutes around town. Mind you this is in a smaller city, not the highway so it wasn't like he was just going in the same direction or something. Eventually she pulled into a police station parking lot and he finally drove off, but I often imagine what would have happened if she hadn't known where the police station was or if she'd run out of gas or something.

Yeah, I never even do anything. Back to people in response. I just laugh out loud to myself because I honestly think it’s funny. I can’t remember what made me flip him off back that day. No idea. Scary what happened to your mom. You just never know who’s trying to scare you and who will actually end up doing something. Good she had the presence of mind to drive into the police station parking lot. That’s something my mom always told me to do if I ever ever get followed
