Cars
"Here in my car", said 80s pop hero Gary Numan, "I feel safest of all". He obviously never shared the same stretch of road as me, then. Automotive tales of mirth and woe, please.

Not a nice situation
Why is it all the mouth-breathers do silly things in cars, then get annoyed when you sound your horn or gesticulate that you're unhappy when they've nearly killed you?
I take the attitude that if they've gotten out, they will either damage the car, or me if I'm still in it. If it's not safe to just drive off, I sometimes just get out, stand there and wait 'till they come up shouting. Then punch the fuckers once in the throat as hard as I can. You have to make sure there's no witnesses around, but if you've got the speed and strength they'll go down like a sack of spuds.
( A few well aimed blows will keep them down if you're worried about retribution ).

No, thank God
But am a rather large exponent of Tang Soo Do.
I didn't train from the age of 8 to let wankers on the road frighten me.

Come off it
If someone mentions Honda Accords everytime there's a decent story, that's original and makes people laugh, then QOTW will get pretty dull, pretty quickly.
I really enjoyed that.

Thanks
I've a fair few tales of putting enraged drivers in their place, but daren't tell them here for fear of
a) It looks like I'm boasting (I'm not - I think they are funny)
b) Being flamed
c) Being caught!

Actually...
Being bigger than someone, and having trained in Karate for over 36 years doesn't make you hard. Some martial artists I know are too soft for their own good, even if they are bigger and more proficient than me.
Being able to switch off sympathy for threatening low-life is my forte, however. Anyone who is slightly capable of defending themselves can easily win a fight if they've got the conviction, and aren't afraid to hurt someone.
It's certainly not cool at the time though. Cool is when Master Loke took 10 guys down in a pub when set upon, and refused to talk about it because "he lost his temper" and "was ashamed".

I'm sure that's all very impressive, but you appear to have misjudged your target audience.
