Now this is jus turning nasty :-p
Favourite trick of mine in the cage is right foot accelerator, left foot break to make the lights come on. Several occasions the cage behind backs up pretty quickly.
On the bike I tend to slow down and pull left, wankers here see my smaller bike and treat it like a scooter anyway, till I drop a gear and give them the finger as I tear past.

Jabbing your brakes on is bloody dangerous on the motorway, thats how motorway pile ups happen. Everyone is normally driving a little too close to the car in front to deal with an emergency stop - your little jab on the brake causes the car behind you to over-react, which causes the next car to over-react all the time the distances between the cars getting less and less - till somewhere two cars make contact and so on and so on. Meanwhile some poor fecker on his bike might be a truck sandwich.
I always ride with a good gap between me and the car in front. Thing is, I have plenty of power to overtake 'fast' and 'efficient' when required, as opposed to cars that need a run up space, which means, in theory, they need to leave more of a space in front than us bikes to execute the exact same anticipated manovour, but THEY JUST DONT GET IT... Cars have a thing about getting in front of bikes, Im sure of it, we are in a no win situation, only thing we can do is flex our power and 'show' them what we can do that they cant, then we get into trouble for it. Put said driver on the pillion seat I say, and igore them until reaching bikers desired destination before allowing them to 'speak their mind', they still wont get it.

Perfection is not something you should ever attain, but something to always strive for. For if we actually achieve our idea of perfection, is it then any longer perfect?
