I've been followed home and threatened in the US for giving a driver who was tailgating the middle finger. Are you saying that in the UK this would never happen? I certainly wouldn't risk provoking random strangers, especially those who are not following traffic codex.

Very unlikely. Fuels costs are way too high for anyone in the UK to consider diverting from their regular commute.
