Sounds like you're really endangering other people's lives in response to an annoyance.

Not in response to an "annoyance". I feel that they are selfishly endangering me and the other drivers on the road.

Even if that's the case, the correct response is not to endanger them right back. That's like people who tailgate because they think the person in front of them is going too slow, or the ones who slow down because they think the person behind them is going too fast. Two wrongs don't make a right; they just make things twice as bad, or worse.
