I call it cleaning the gene pool. They only get the pee-waddling scared out of them if they drive like Genoa or do the brake-check thing.

When my daughter was 4, I received a call from my husband telling me she had been hit by a car. I was over an hour away and in total panic mode. My husband said she was alive, conscious and crying for me. All I could think was that I needed to get there to hold her one more time before she died. I was in Commerce, Texas and needed to get to Plano, TX. Fast.

Naturally, I ran into one of the Genoa Nazis. If I tried to pass her on the left, she would move her car over to stop me. After about 5 miles of this, break-checking, her slowing to a crawl, etc., I passed her on the right shoulder. Not the wisest move, but the only option I felt I had at the time. After I passed her, she immediately pulled off to the side of the rode and I could see her dialing in my rear view mirror. I laughed (while calling her a few choice names) and hoped a police man did come that might would give me an escort to the hospital.

The policeman didn’t come, but my daughter was amazingly relatively unharmed after being tossed over the hood and roof of a car and slamming her head into the concrete. It was a miracle.

The next day, as I was traveling home on the same highway, I saw the policeman sitting on the side of the road. I knew he was there waiting to catch the maniac driver; so I pulled off the road behind him. He met me behind his car. After I told him how the woman had behaved and the reason I was driving as I was, he admitted he was there to catch the “bad” driver and ruefully told me the woman was his wife. He assured me she would be getting a “spanking” that night and would explain to her that it isn’t HER job to police the highways, but hers.

Yeah, I was kidding about running people off the road, but those such as Genoa should be aware, someday they will meet someone that isn’t kidding. One should always drive courteously. If not, expect to eventually find the POed lunatic that will teach one a lesson.
