Thought of Yaddie yesterday while watching a truck crash compilation on youtube. A Midnight Blue Macan cut in front of an 18 wheeler and brake checked it at about 65 mph. The Macan ended up getting pushed forward, sideways, for short distance before veering off onto the shoulder and flipping over on its lid. Those side airbags on the new vehicles really are a game changer. Carry on...
I've never brake checked anyone. It's the most asinine thing that anyone can do on the highway.

There's a guy here who drives a mini. He came out of the Food Lion parking lot right in front of me, in the Ranger, and I had the cruise control set at 3-over. The guy drove slow then brake-checked me. Against my better judgement I did him the courtesy of touching my brakes- otherwise he would have been shot forward into oncoming traffic.

Since then I've seen him twice more, once brake-checking a truck on the same two lane road. That asshole has a death wish.
