I've always dreamed of doing that... but whenever I'm in such a situation, I always worry that the driver's immediate reaction to the fist slapping will be stupider than the original offense. Now, I know they'll will become angry... and that's all gravy... but which way will they jerk the car without thinking?

Just be grateful you don't have any dental work, Bryson.

Oh, and, I've always found that I get flats in threes. Even when I find the sharp. It's weird. I'll go many months without a flat, and then once I get one, I'll invariably get two more before the month is out. I think a lot of it has to do with the tubes settling down... or the cheap tubes I use...
