RE: A4 yuppie scum in Boston

[Mike Sylvester <Mike.Sylvester@aptis.com>]

I do not condone his tailgating, but obviously you were in the wrong lane.
If no one is in front of you and someone is behind you, pull over.
No one should have to pass you on the right.  IMO, passing on the right 
is more dangerous than driving fast.
