You can always ask them.

Many people are being an A$$.  They know it disturbs you, when they treat the like that.  Yet given there's no damage, you can not do anything about it.  Next time, skip them and let them walk home.

Good luck...

Answer 3

there an idiot

Answer 4

it's a superstition thing.  i used to have a friend that would "scratch" the top of the car twice if we went under a yellow light.  it was supposed to be "good luck" that we wouldn't get hit or that we wouldn't get a ticket if we ran it with some red.
