All motorcyclists have been in that situation. You roll up to a red light. You’re minding your own business when some guy in a souped-up Dodge Charger (it’s always a Charger) revs his engine in your general vicinity. Despite his obnoxious pleas for attention, you ignore him completely. Of course, that only provokes him more. Practically begging for you to look over, he lets off the brake, sending the car lurching into the crosswalk.
All the while, you remain calm, staring ahead. However, as soon as the light goes green, you dump the clutch, pin the throttle, and smoke that overpriced, overweight mid-life crisis on four wheels. While most macho motorists know this particular sting of humility, Carwow’s Mat Watson has made a profession of it.
