A little further down the road he got next to me to try and race me again (wasn't racing him to start with, just trying not to roll back and succeeded). I just kept ignoring him and he goes speeding past me again and a little further up the road I see he is pulled over by two cop cars.

looks like they have the case of race your self sydrome. common symptoms are , waving the fist out the window even though they are the only one at the speeds of 90+

Shaking their fists out of the window of a pickup that has a bumper held on by bungees?!?!? Sounds like they hey must have forgotten their pitchforks and torches. Either that, or you're not part of an ethnic minority.

The crappy truck I was trying to avoid (stopped on my bumper practically) was the reason I took off kind of fast. The riced out Civic was the one racing me who started out in the lane next to me.
