Default Other Jerk off drivers!

This doesn't only pertain to being in the "Z" only it's every vehicle I own. I try to give able space "like your suppose to" between cars! How many of us have people that are so close to your bumper if you open the trunk they'd pull in!!!

happens all the time, I usually just slow down and make them pass or if I'm in my daily I might give them a little brake check... I have thought many times about mounting a small reservoir in the back with my old washer pump and install some squirter nozzles in the slots of the rear bumper and make a mess on their car when they get too close... I haven't done it though, I really want to but then I know it could just escalate the situation even further and I would rather not have to exercise my 2nd amendment right if I don't have to

If someone is right on my bumper, it's a perfect time to wash my windshield. Spray goes all over their car, and usually it's enough to get through their heads that they're too close. It feels the best when they flash the high beams so you can do it again.

My ultimate problem is most drivers now a days have very minimal coverage and when you see some hoopty behind you god for bid they hit you.
