If we were both on the road and this situation came up you can bet your bottom dollar I'd say to your face if you refused to communicate at all. It's not that hard, you should try it sometime...in person.
ETA: I'm sorry to all involved that this thread has degenerated to this level. It does demonstrate that there are indeed all kinds of warped personalities out there on the road and what should be one of the most basic problem solving techniques is most definitely not so basic. If it's 'Awkward AF' to come up with a few words when asked a simple question I don't know what else to say.
