Have you ever been in a cabbie battle? I was an 18 year old student in DC heading to Georgetown on a quiet weeknight around 10pm. All of a sudden my cab, that I am a paying customer in, doesn't like the other cab that just passes by. We are driving through fairly residential areas but down a main street. They decide to do, what I can only describe as "battle dancing" with their Detroit's finest high mileage former police cars. It was pure insanity. He was swearing in some foreign tongue and driving as close as he could on the other guys ass and then getting even more pissed when the guy in front slams on his breaks. They kept swerving faster and pretending they were going to hit each other. They kept speeding up to 50 mph and then slamming hard, almost hitting each other at least three times. I nearly wet myself and barely had enough lung capacity to yell at him as it was hard to take in a deep breath. It eventually ended with a good flip of the bird and the other guy turning left quickly. Why?
