I remember a few years ago I was going down Wood Street on an icy night (yes I had lights on) and saw a car waiting to turn right across me. I locked eyes with him and was staring at him for a good five seconds as I approached and he STILL pulled in front of me with no time to spare so I went straight into the side of him, then he swiftly drove off as I picked myself up. I remember his jowly face but seems he just saw a featureless blob.
Yea I do this as well. I literally stare at them if I can, not because I'm challenging them, but because I want them to see me and remind them I'm a person too.
