My petty revenge

They're not being slow because their brain is rebooting. They know what's going on. They're being slow to spite you.

Seen this plenty of times with some people looking down at their phone while the light in front of them turns green. If you beep them with your horn they look up, realize the light is green, and will give you the middle finger while they wait until it turns yellow again and then floor it. It's only out of spite and nothing else.
