I doubt I would have been willing to put that much effort into the situation... I probably would have just gassed it and left him in my dust.
Actually, now that I think about it... that's exactly what I did a few weeks ago in a similar situation. Some asshole pulled out onto a 2-lane state highway about 20 feet in front of me while I was going 45ish... didn't stop at his stop-sign or anything, so I had no choice but to swerve into the left lane and pass him... and then swerve back immediately b/c of oncoming traffic... he was lucky that I didn't stick my car right up his ass.
So then he comes flying up on my tail, flashing his lights and tailgating within a few inches of my bumper. I was stuck behind another car so I couldn't speed away immediately... so I break-checked him a couple times, which only seemed to piss him off further. Then the car ahead of me turned off and I just blew him away.
