   Pity, the authorities are not doing anything to prevent road rage. It would   
   require education and yes, humor and harsh punishment too. In Venezuela they   
   brought clowns to the streets to tame traffic.   
      
   As a cyclist I'm using humor and I do military salute (yes sir!) when they   
   command me to leave the road or whatever they mean by blasting the horn. They   
   can do whatever they want and escape punishment.
