OP ~ when you've been buzzed ~ you'll know it. if they out of arm's reach then they're OK. deep breaths as you move past the confrontation episode. I'm now using a strobe on my left bar end to help encourage courtesy from drivers as they pass me but a-holes will always be a-holes.

I shake my head at those that go completely on the other side of the double yellow line and accelerate! they obviously don't realized they are breaking the law and can quite possibly hit someone who is entering that lane and not expecting anyone in their lane so would most likely be looking the other way. sometimes I consider what I would do if I ever witnessed such an accident. I've thought about staying out to show the police my position and how that driver was so far out side of reasonable.

keep ridign ~ you'll get used to the traffic
