M7 you are bang on target!
Once I stopped my car infront of another chauffeur driven car which was trying to beat the signal by using the opposite lane. The driver expected that I would move and adjust but I did not move and just stopped my car making sure the only way for him was to reverse (the road had median). The driver got out and started to abuse me... so i asked him to shut-up and walked up to the passenger who looked like some IT pro (working on his laptop) and asked him if his driver is an illiterate and makes a mistake then wasn't it the owners responsibility to correct it? First he was furious and was going going to say something, then suddenly realised his mistake and asked the driver to turn around and apologised.
I always threaten auto drivers or cabbies that I'll get off and not pay them if they drive like a maniac and 9 out 10 will oblige and try to drive properly. Next time you guys try it and see how these guys fall in line. But the real problem is the so-called educated lot!!!
