Unhappy Close Encounters.......

So I'm on my way over to a "friend's" house to do some manual labor because he is away. It's a beautiful night high 60's not a cloud in the sky ....perfect S2000 weather

I'm southbound on 23 just past 315 and crusing at a brisk pace;not over the top,not weaving in and out ,just staying in the left lane and people are moving over without any issues.

Traffic is light for 6:15pm on a workweek evening and I'm enjoying the "quiet time" ....just me, the car and the evening.

In the distance I spot a C6 convertible in the left lane and my closing speed is bringing us closer. There is an SUV in the right lane about 3 car lengths ahead of him but he is not getting over. So I back off a lil and go to pass on the right;but as soon as my nose is even with his rear bumper he accelerates and pulls even with the SUV and holds for 2 miles in formation. 3 traffic light worth

I'm now annoyed and tuck in tight behind him but back off almost right away; after all I'm really in no hurry and this skin head neanderthall is just being a major fargin icehole



.....we get to Orange Road and I get over to turn and he is still in the passing lane ,so we are side by side ....

I look over to sneer at him and notice "skin head" is an off duty State Trooper

He drops his window and says.." you need to be a lil more courteous in your driving"

"Stay safe"

Needless to say I waited to turn untill he was fully through the light........then I hammered it
