Like I already said, the "Bait Car" is a passive bait. They set the trap, and let the criminal COME TO THEM. Revving your car at someone else excessively is not the same.

You already said if he's annoying you, you're gonna throw it down a gear and peace.
He's obviously gonna follow your lead, and stay in it to catch you.
Now it's a race. Even though that's not what youintended.
So you would agree that if someone antagonizes you enough, something you would "normally" do would be to gtfo of dodge, and inadvertently race?

I think in any instance where someone accepts to race, they should be convicted of it. I'm not arguing that. Im arguing the practice of getting them to accept the race. The manner in which it is done. I think there is a HUUUUGE population of people who DONT race on the streets at all, but like me, will drop a gear when provoked. I think its bull**** to target those people, rather than the antagonists TRYING to race.

Youre still missing my point. ;)
My intention was not to draw a direct parallel. My intention was to highlight the way of thinking that you demonstrated, and why its retarded.
Just because youre guilty of something doesnt give them the right to unfairly catch you in the act of it.
