Honestly? This statement scares me. It is not worth damaging your car, taking the financial hit that your newly-exorbitant insurance premiums would cause (as I can see pretty much no way you'd *not* be at fault for driving on the shoulder and cutting in to traffic in a travel lane to force someone else to stop, much less rear-ending a stopped car), possibly injuring yourself and the other driver, and generally behaving like every bit as big an asshole as the guy who cut you off just because you're cranky that some jerk cut in front of you.
