Driver blows his horn and goes around me and we glare at each other. He goes to the right turn lane next to a car in front of me.

His window is partly open so I yell, "Problem?"

He yells, "Yeah you don't need to be riding down the middle of the road like that!"

I said, "Yeah I do, I'm going straight here and there's broken glass over over the road back there."

He yelled something else so I put on my take command of situation voice and said, "Calm down!" He rolls down his window completely and says, "What?" I said, "CALM DOWN, Or I'll have your license!", just to spook him a bit. He says, "Go ahead, take it!", turns right, and leaves.

I gotta be more zen. I considered contacting Parks & Rec, but I guess I'll relax.
Great story!
