An Evil Thought!! get her to push an empty old pushchair out int the road in front of her!! I know it would shake up the driver but I've seen it done before and has startling effects!!

the road I used to live off had a bad reputation because it was a dead straight mile and a 40 limit but most drivers did well above it. in summer the speed dropped dramatically when a particular young lady used to walk down the road wearing ... well not much but just enuf to be covered!!
It ain't what you ride, it's who you ride with!!!
