This is the first time I have started a thread on TMS I think this is the place for this one.

I was driving down the road today minding my own business, the car in front of me had a load of kids in it. I see that they keep looking back but with the new 05 I get that a lot so I think nothing of it.Out of the blue they pull over to the left lane and start throwing stuff out of the car in the middle of the lane. Nothing hit me but this pisses me off. So they are all laughing and having a high old time so I pull up and give them the old your #1 and pull ahead so they can't hit my car with anything. They pull in behind me and I slow down to block them behind me with another car in the left lane. I manage to stay ahead of them the rest of the way. This was not to hard being as they are young punks in an old probe and they didn't seem to have to much in the way of gray matter between the ears.

Just thought I would post this and see if any of you folks have any other stories like this.

You need the James Bond mods to your car - smoke screen, oil slicks, etc.

Knowing me I'd get on my cell and call my friends who have bad tempers to help me straighten them out.

Forget the cell phone, get a Glock. Oh... I wish that was legal. Glad your car was OK.

Two words - SWIFT and BLINDING

That would accurately describe the violence if it had been my car and they hit it.

Those kids anyway

I remember the days.

I'm glad I had someone around to knock some sense into my head when I was that age.

Glad to hear it didn't turn into something worse.

I am one of those who have a bad temper. I can't even say what I would have done in that situation. You don't know until it happens and you snap. All I know is that I would have seen red and probably ended up in jail not remembering who I threw out of their own window first after following these punks and stealing their car with them in it. I just don't unerstand how people can be so stupid. You never know who you are messing with on the road. Alan, you are a better man than me.

It's hard to keep control when someone is trying to mess with your car and/or pull your chain. On my first weekend with the car a guy and his buddy pull up behind me at a light and creep closer and closer laughing with each other... and closer. I made the mistake of pulling forward. They got a big kick out of that. :bang:

When the light turned green I just sat there... and sat there until the smiles were gone... then, so was I.

If I ever caught anyone damaging my Mustang on purpose I would lose it. You guys would be seeing it on national news. I'd go hannibal lecter on them and end up in prison for the rest of my life.
