I found this rather amusing at the time.
I don't usually look for a "kill" but this one just sorta happened.
I was sat at the lights, you know the kind that the right lane ends a short ways past the intersection and is clearly marked as so.
I’m waiting for green in the left lane and so are all the other people that can read and have at least one functional brain cell,(I have 2, but they are over taxed). As I’m patiently waiting for the green, up comes this riced out Honduh civic, a plain old DX. Complete with V-TECK (yes that’s how it was spelled) and a big exhaust can held up buy a coat hanger. 2/3's tinted windows (missed the driver rear one, complete with 10,000 air bubbles). Wing off something that was not a honduh.
I chucked and did not pay much attention, (good tune was on the radio). Well he starts honking (actually beeping) his horn.
I thought he wanted directions, so I rolled down the passenger window and asked if I could help.
The wise ass says, "Chrysler R/T, what a piece of crap, could whoop that on my bicycle. I just looked at him and smiled.
The light went caution the other way and he is inching forward and revving the blazes out of his little 4 banger. I could hardly restrain my laughter.
I looked to the right and there was an OPP officer (police) stopping at the light and he was watching us intently. Honda boy was too busy watching me and the light.
Well Green, Screech (the engine more than the tires) and I just pull away normal. It was still close (dang he was slow, and the smoke was bad). He zips (if you could call it that) in front of me as his lane runs out and shoots me the bird.
This is where is gets funny, see, the cop turned right and was behind honda boy watching the whole thing. Just after the kid flips me the bird, on came the lights and siren. (guess the cop thought the finger was for him)
I decide to circle back and see, sure enough, honda boy is in cuffs, and the officer is going through the car. (guess he suspected the driver of being more than just an ass).
Honda boy sees me and I just wave, he was screaming obscenities in my direction as I went by. (Cop stood there looking at the guy)
When I came back on the return trip from the store, the tow truck was busy hauling the DX away and the cops had taken Honduh boy off the meet some buddies in the local police constabulary.
Guess I will see him on his bicycle (if he gets out) but I don't think he will be such a wise ass next time.
Sorry for being long winded!
