Invisible......

Do our cars have some sort of stealth mode activator that I must have pressed in error?
I have had more people jump out in front of me and trucks change lanes in front of me with not enough time this week.
I can only assume that I must be invisible.

Please tell me how to deactivate the cloaking device!

do you run the car with the lights on during the day? I find that people actually tend to pay a little more attention to you.. they pay a LOT more attention if you run with your highbeams on all night

Significant Technical Input
Have you been driving on I-70 through Parachute again? You know those people can't see past the end of their hoods when they're on their way to the early-bird at Denny's (Lenny's.)

three words:

wigwags and strobes.

In my case, strobes at the back works great for tail gaters. As for the idiots pulling in the front, usually my longest finger in the middle of the hand works best once in a while. Otherwise, I have 911 on my speed dial and I think the CPD, IL Troopers knows me by my number by now.

Once on cartalk they recommended that you reaim one of your front windshield wiper nozzles to point over the roof of your car, so that when you used them you were able to sufficiently annoy anyone behind you. That seemed like a pretty good tactic actually...

I have the rear wiper spray nozzle on my 89 wagon rigged to do that. Used the tube and nozzle from a squirtgun to aim it. It shoots a good 20 feet. You would love to see the looks of surprise on tailgaters faces. I have been flicked off to many times to count but it is so worth it. I still havent been able to get the svx set up to do it. The rear spoiler is in the way.

That's the fun part. No one knows exactly what the fluid spraying at them is......

Me too

The rear spray nossle was broken off on my Justy so it ended up spraying straight back. I even squirted someone walking behind my car. (By accident of course )

i got ya all beat!

so you're just driving around downtown and you stop at a stoplight...your light turns green, but some pedestrian decides that they can make it across before you start to go. well, to discourage this behavior, my rear washer nozzle is bent so it actually shoots out over the top of my car and a few feet in front of it. it hurries them along quite nicely...or when someone is just taking forever to walk across and you know the light is going to change...give them a little squirt! most ppl think twice about attacking a car when they're on foot...well, b/c they are on foot...and i'm in a car that's revving its engine...or suddenly veerring towards them in quite an aggressive manner...heh ooooo, another good use is when someone cuts you off...get right behind them when they stop and squirt washer fluid all over the back of their car...now i just need to get one of my fronts to squirt over the back of my car... that is, if i ever get it back!!! ::wishes he had mind control powers to prod mechanics along::
