Re: ABS Good/No-Good?

Ok, Ok.  I guess it's more like...if I happen to be in somebody's blind 
spot and they start to come over, I like to hold my ground until some 
action is necessary.  Usually I speed up so they see the front of my car 
and pull back over.  Otherwise, I just switch lanes.  It sounded a lot 
more response-provoking the other way.  Indeed, I've gotten way more 
responses on this post than I did on the questions about my car (exactly 
zero).  I am a bit of a pest to non-drivers when I'm on the road.  I 
guess I'll grow out of that (or be scared out of it) someday.
