I'm not inclined to ban people, but sometimes it is appropriate. I did not disagree with how and why Mein was banned from SBN, for example. His behavior leading to that was simply uncalled for.

Which time are you talking about. I know he has been banned several actually.

People who aren't paying attention won't care what color the car they aren't paying attention to is. Last altercation I had was a guy who U-turned his BMW from parked across the road without even glancing in the direction of coming traffic. He was VERY lucky I was on a sportbike and thus he got a small dent in his drivers door. Had I been driving a semi, he still wouldn't have seen me, and been squashed.

These are the same people who pull out in front of brightly reflective colored and large vehicles with multiple flashing red and or strobe lights and loud horns.
