I was driving down in Florida on one of those long bridges over the water.
There was some old guy (50-60 yrs) riding in the center of the lane in front
of me. I gave him a blast with the air horns and all he did was speed up.
25, 30, 35, up to 40 mph. The speed limit was 45 mph and at times he reached
it. I kept blasting him with the horns and even tried to squeeze him off to
the side. He kept pedaling like mad. Finally I saw a cop at the pull off and
stopped and told him about the cyclist and I wanted him ticketed. The cop
gave me a ticket for unsafe driving, tailgating and reckless driving. The
cop went on my story and then went to the cyclist to confirm. The cyclist
said he was willing to go to court to testify against me. Should I fight
this thing or just pay and take my lumps? Thanks all,

Isn't it kinda dusty and damp down there under the bridge?  You could
alsways ask the other trolls what to do.

Aw, geez!  I suppose I gave a legitimate answer to a "fish guts" troll by this
guy.
