Anyway, the guy goes flying past me onto the freeway and starts flashing his lights and he and his passengers were sticking their fists up in the air out the windows. It was so retarded. A little further down the road he got next to me to try and race me again (wasn't racing him to start with, just trying not to roll back and succeeded). I just kept ignoring him and he goes speeding past me again and a little further up the road I see he is pulled over by two cop cars.

looks like they have the case of race your self sydrome. common symptoms are , waving the fist out the window even though they are the only one at the speeds of 90+

Shaking their fists out of the window of a pickup that has a bumper held on by bungees?!?!? Sounds like they hey must have forgotten their pitchforks and torches. Either that, or you're not part of an ethnic minority.

The crappy truck I was trying to avoid (stopped on my bumper practically) was the reason I took off kind of fast. The riced out Civic was the one racing me who started out in the lane next to me.
