Just remember before you pull out your Dirty Harry that these morons have family and friends who are at least as bad, if not worse in their aggressive behaviour to others.If you harm the scumbag ,they will come after you.Then you will have to emigrate !

I know, you really don't want to mess with all those blue-hairs while they're rushing to bingo or the early bird specials...

I know this sounds really retarded, but every time he does that, you can't help but to laugh. The best part is, it completely throws off the other person. Then you end up getting this look from them .
Hahahaha, I've done it several times, especially when I have my wife or others in the car that I don't want to show my bad side to, and it really works the way you described. They either think you're a fool or you're too insane to start an argument with. Either way, it works for me. When driving alone, I've been known to hurl the occasional hot muffin at road-ragers.

In this case, the guy going after the little woman deserved to be offered the new "bin laden mixed drink."

Best response to road rage I've ever heard of? My best friend growing up was being tailgated by some fool on the highway, after seeing my friend wasn't going to speed up he followed him when my friend exited and was yelling cuss words at him and making threats. My friend just stared. So the guy gets out of his truck and walks over like Billy Badass and right when he gets to the driver's door of my friend's car is when my friend put his badge to the window. Let's just say someone needed a change of underwear (He's a US Marchal now)

Florida is filled with super-rednecks, transplants, and foreigners. it is a recipe for weirdness. Throw old insane people into the mix, sure- it gets a little weirder.

This weird news site which is extremely entertaining and popular, labels all of their headlines. Florida is the only state that gets its own tag. http://www.fark.com/

You kinda have to live here to understand. I have seen and met some of the most odd people here, and I have been all over the country and to the middle east.
