Just tested my ABS. I was going about 30 MPH and accelerating. A driver stopped on a side street, and decided NOT to look left to see me.
The driver began to pull out.
I am soooo glad I have ABS!!! I used my horn button to slow my forward progress down, and held the button down longer than necessary. No bump, no scratches, other than all the junk in my car's trunk ending up in the back seat.
So, at this point, completely stopped, I flew the big old bird. Then, I drove off.
Was I justified? Don't people with their heads up their a$$ deserve to be scared shitlesss by a horn, and then have me express what I think of them with my middle finger? Sure, it wasn't life threatening. There weren't kids in the cars. But shouldn't you be made to feel like a dumba$$ for operating a 2000 lb motor vehicle with your sphincter stretched around your skull?
Sorry, I'm still a little hot about it...
