Indeed... entertaining. I gave my 2 cents, and hopefully didn't offend anyone, so now I will sit back and enjoy reading this thread....

You certainly didn't offend me. To be honest intent doesn't mean a whole lot to me when someone does things just like ignorance doesn't either (as is the case with the law).

The only type of road 'retaliation' I have ever done is spraying back when I got sprayed and flashing people with high-beams (which is pretty rare). I have maybe done what I did in the video on 3 other occurrences.

Rather than flash honk or do anything else it makes the most sense to me to do it back to them so if they are ignorant they will get the message that they are spraying **** on people driving behind them and will stop doing it. There is almost never a good excuse for doing it randomly like that as it probably could have been done *before* getting on the freeway or when someone is far enough behind you that it wont hit them (they have to be pretty far away).

I would honestly be surprised if it does not bother someone at all when this happens to them. Yes many will do nothing about it but at least I can say that person who I sprayed back certainly wasn't ignorant about what they did at least from that point on. Whether or not they keep doing it is anyone's guess.

I just hate it when people drive in a way that pays no attention to the consequences of other people on the road. Another example that was given is driving slowly in the fast lane (maybe these people would argue they are doing the speed limit? i duno?). Another one is people who are in the right most lane and stop at a stoplight and the lane has enough room for two cars but they stop in the middle of the lane so people can't turn right and have to wait through the light.

And of course there are the people that seem to have no idea that cleaning their windshield while driving at freeway speeds sprays a bunch of crap on the person that is behind them.

The idea that you can teach people a lesson, or that it is your responsibility to fulfill that role is retarded.
Get over it, and get over yourself.
Fix yourself before you invest so much energy in trying to fix other people.

While I agree with your point, that last sentence is pretty funny coming from a guy arguing over the internet about this

Awwwww sh*t. Pwned.

If I can save this guy from himself while preventing the senseless waste of washer fluid, my sacrifice is worthwhile.

Back when I was in HS I had an auto crafts teacher who had us restoring a 1940s Ford and one of the projects was installing a rear-facing washer jet that aimed backwards and would spray tailgaters. He had me rig up a seperate reservoir and pump which was filled with anti-freeze. Apparently, this stuff just smears on the windsheild.

yah, just so that you guys are aware, you can get jail time for any object or harsh chemicals thrown at another vehicle while driving.

with people having celphones with cameras chances are you will get your car's picture taken and reported.

This thread is more entertaining than fast and furious quotes.

For those ten seconds or less, while I overreact to being sprayed by washer fluid, I'm free.
