I'm insulted that you think I would do such a thing. Mad

Like I am going to take a chance on dropping my phone. I use both hands when I am recording bad drivers. Nono2

So should it be a hit and run, or should it be full on assault?

Podiumites don't ever run. It will be long and drawn out, and by the end, only two people will be left bickering with one another and everyone else will have ignored the thread and stopped caring 87 posts ago.

There's going to be a TON of old people on the road who physically can't turn their neck/back far enough to do the old "throw an arm over the seat and look out the back" maneuver.

Quote from Schooby :
When driving a school bus we were told to never turn your head to look behind you to back up... use your mirrors! But then we were also told to never back up on school grounds and we had lots of mirrors that had to be set exactly right for the driver.
Well, a school bus is a little different than a car Prop
