I can tell lots of good stories, but none from in the motorhome. My favorite was going to work one day on the freeway in the #2 lane of a three lane freeway. Traffic is heavy in all lanes but is moving at 60. Guy comes right up on my tail within 3'. So I back up a little from the car in front of me to give me some room to maneuver and I tap my brake lights at the same time to try and get him to back off. Well all that does is make him mad and I can see him giving me the one finger salute in the rear view mirror. When he gets room on the right side he changes lanes and passes me and continues his one finger salute while mouthing some bad words and then for the icing on the cake he changes lanes back right into me before he was clear forcing me to swerve to avoid a collision. So I activate the emergency lights to pull him over. Oh yeah, did I mention I was a cop driving my unmarked police car to work? So yeah I pulled him over and interestingly enough, he didn't give me any more one finger waives. We had a nice chat as we waited for a CHP officer to arrive with a ticket book, then he got a nice fat ticket for reckless driving. If he had not backed down on the attitude like he did, he would have been going to jail for ADW for attempting to ram me.
