Didn't let a C-300 cut me off. Forgive me.
I was waiting at a redlight, just before crossing central park, when a Chrylser 300 pulled up a little ahead of me on the right lane. Usually cars turn right from the right lane. My lane had the staight, slightly leftward path to enter the cross-street. Also there were no other cars behind me when he pulled-up. I knew the C-300 wanted to cut me off in order to merge into my lane to enter the cross street ahead of me. Nothing makes me more angry. I mean, he should of just waited behind me. What does he have to gain by passing me, just one small car, on a relatively congested street. When the light turned green, I made my MC 118hp engine work a little more than usual. It was only 50 feet until the entrance, so I didn't really have to do much. Love the torque. Suffice it to say, the C-300 was not able to pass me, had to almost stop to enter the lane behind me since he had nowhere to go but sidewalk and trees, and started tailgating me. I flashed the rear fogs and watched him back off. After crossing the park, I moved to the right lane as I usually do and watched him pull ahead of me on the left lane. Of course, cars were stopped ahead trying to turn left at the next intersection, so I puttered past and gave him or her a smile. The windows were blacked-out. Of course, if this happened on a long straightaway and he was just trying to race me, I would just smile and let him pass. I have never raced my car in anyway. This was a matter of principles and common courtesy. He was trying to cut the line.
