what does to OC someone mean?
Oleoresin Capsicum, it's the heat ingredient in pepper spray.
I carry and recommend Fox 5.3 in the streaming style.

Perchance, were the vehicle windows down, so that he might have heard some of your expression of discomfort, and mistaken it for words directed at him?
Mine were up and I think his were too. He was cruising along pretty good too. I think he saw me sitting there as some sort of challenge.

My mother used to disarm situations like this by "playing dumb"
"WHATS YOUR PROBLEM??"
"Ohh, I spilled coffee all over myself. It's HOT AND IT HURTS!"
"WHAT ARE YOU GONNA DO ABOUT IT?"
"Well as soon as the light changes i'm gonna go home and change!"
Assuming traffic was clear, I'd have just left. If it wasn't, I'd have probably tried to look as apologetic as possible and uttered something to the effect of, "Oh, man, I just spilled coffee all over myself, I didn't get in your way did I? I'm sorry!" while watching the guys hands.

I didn't drive around looking for his truck, figuring that might look like I was looking to engage the guy once my daughter was gone.
I meant to say that I'd be drinking my second cup of coffee with the workman's employer.

I figured. There was no company name on the truck, but it had a ladder in it and a bunch of construction tools in the bed.

This may be off topic, as it is something I WOULD NOT do.
But, whenever some lowlife in need of a role model gets brave on the highway, thoughts always cross my mind.
There was a car that I apparently cut off in an attempt to merge one time. He pulled up next to me and I waved and kind of smiled. He and his buddy started swerving towards me (which was stupid to begin with...I was in my 8300 lb Powerstroke).
I thought it would be pretty funny to plunk AR up on the dash or something like that.
I don't own one, but to just see the look of "what have I done" would be priceless.
Luckily, we have self control.

Basically pepper spray them...
I'd also not roll down the window, fake deafness, inch up to
get the plate number, log it in the memory banks for future reference and
drive off...
Also make sure I have clean underwear (spare set of jeans) in my glove box like my momma taught me to do...

I'm pretty sure she'll do her darndest to find a hot pink-colored canister
CompTac does make a holster for the Fox spray, but it only comes in black - - we checked - - and the company who made my pink holster does not make one!
If you find one, please let me know - - us girls have a thing about matching "accessories"!

Watch OC if you have Asthma or other breathing problems. If you get any of the spray on you, it can trigger a bad attack.
(I speak from experience, as I got a whif of OC intended for someone else years ago.)

Simple!
I would have used my TrunkMonkey!
Road Rage (requires Quicktime)
Problem Solved!!
Had I been in my non-Trunk Monkey-equipped vehicle, I would simply have left Moron Boy standing in the road.
