Then they get a hand gesture indicating disappointment and regret (it helps the gesture if you shake your head sadly) in the driver's previous behavior, and they start looking contrite and apologetic.
Everyone expects the finger. No one expects the thumbs down.
It's been fun. I've had to use it a lot.

I like that. Fucking Lamborghini (sp?) cutting me off. But he didn't know the traffic patterns, so I ended up way ahead of him anyway.
