I had an old man cut me off - he was in a hurry to get to the grocery store. I followed him in (OK, probably not smart, but I was PMSing) and told him that he could have killed me. His response? "You could have scratched my car!" and he went inside the store. I called the cops. They came out, I pointed out the man, and they sent me away. I told them I wanted to press charges, but they (cops) didn't really take it seriously - it looked like they were joking with the old man when I left.

At least I did what I could and stayed inside the law. A U-lock applied to his windshield would have been much more satisfying though.

Irulan may be right...
