It's like cussing at someone with a gun pointed at their head. If you get it on video and bring it to the police, they may be able to help you. <br />Drew Devereuxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13420775765955153979noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8492685525705691186.post-66588914988085891992013-12-12T16:42:16.720-05:002013-12-12T16:42:16.720-05:00Thanks, Carlos -- that might be something I'll...Thanks, Carlos -- that might be something I'll have to look into.Brookshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12110998345857993287noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8492685525705691186.post-51235958236407110132013-12-12T16:15:52.075-05:002013-12-12T16:15:52.075-05:00An acquaintance commutes with a tiny spy camera fa...An acquaintance commutes with a tiny spy camera facing the rear and another facing the front. Both are small and cheap, less than $50 total purchased on Ebay. Video quality isn't that great but sufficient to identify a car make and license plate. <br />I've considered a sign reading "smile, live streaming video recording in progress".Carloshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08881700921496040725noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8492685525705691186.post-2734199963524112342013-12-06T16:51:01.529-05:002013-12-06T16:51:01.529-05:00Thanks, Billyhacker.Thanks, Billyhacker.Brookshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12110998345857993287noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8492685525705691186.post-57315227449083275162013-12-06T16:25:19.135-05:002013-12-06T16:25:19.135-05:00I'm always surprised (and it's hard to be ...I'm always surprised (and it's hard to be always surprised) when I catch up to an angry driver and (very calmly) ask them what the issue is - they often say that I'm endangering myself. That's why they are angry. I had a couple in a car gesture to me angrily at a stoplight about a month ago to say that my bicycling (in a marked bike lane, fully legal) was dangerous - that I could "fall down." It's having these just motives that makes these people dangerous. They will punish you physically for not being safer. Separately, just want to remind you that cars are lethal weapons and antagonizing someone in control of a lethal weapon, especially when you don't have one, is a terrible idea, especially since I like this blog. billyhackerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01147372135927774269noreply@blogger.com
