Guy: Or what?
Me: (Pausing) Or? I have no power over you. I can't do anything to you. But it's wrong.
Guy: What?!!
Me: It's wrong.
Guy: Go F**k yourself.
Light changes.
Guy: (Gunning the engine) Have a nice day.

I could have said, "Or you'll hurt someone. Or you'll get a ticket. Or you'll miss the light and get honked at."
