Understatement While Driving

The video begins with the hosts introducing the guest star Danny Preston, who is a defensive driving instructor. He claims that there are ways to turn road rage into calm and collected road revenge. The discussion starts by Preston explaining what to do when people are cut off on the road whilst driving. He says to remain calm and then follow the violator home. After obtaining their address, one can sneak into their perpetrators house and rearrange things to spook them out. It is much easier to make them pay when there is an address involved and it is also much safer than creating a scene in the middle of the highway.

These examples of satire contributed to society by showing that if one were to say something, they cannot contradict themselves and do the exact opposite. There is no reason to go into extreme lengths just to get revenge on someone, but rather, it is quite necessary to always be calm and collected in every situation one is to
