Hey, at least it isn't boombastic!
I saw a guy driving a RX-7 the other day ... his plate said "OMG WTF" .. thought that was a good one too ...........................
I guarantee that he got that after the song by Shaggy came out. CHeesy.
Har har. This is the nice time of year here.
No, he wasn't in a hurry, he was just mad that I was behind him. He even indicated that I was #1, several times. I just don't understand why he was so irate, when traffic is stopped you can get near other cars without posing any kind of safety hazard.
I HATE IT WHEN PPL DO THATI don't like people too close to my rear bumper as well....especially hills. I hate when someone gets too close to me on a steep hill so that i think i will roll back a bit into them. I bump up a foot or so and what does the person do?? They creep up with me!!! I even roll back a foot or so after bumping up and they don't get the idea!!!
Of course on level ground like that i wouldn't go beserk, but i hate when people get right up on me on hills.

Understandably he "could have been hot" but road rage gets you killed if you mess with the wrong person...
Another point there are people that LOOK to cause road rage incidents - I have a buddy and everytime I drive with him he is flicking somebody off or calling them names when 99% of the time they didn't do anything wrong...
As far as people tailing you on hills I HATE minivans - I avoid and pass them on the road whenever possible - so if a "mom" in a minivan gets on my Arse I give them a "friendly look" but I know how to drive a stick - so no matter the hill I don't roll back more than 2 inches....
100% truth. I'm normally a really low level, calm demeanor kind of guy, but the instant I get behind the wheel and someone else is doing something wrong that affects me, I lose my ****ing mind!?!?!?!Understandably he "could have been hot" but road rage gets you killed if you mess with the wrong person...

I've nearly gotten into fist fights in the past because of it.
Ride my tail initially, I'll let it go for a while hoping you'll realize your mistake. Continue to do it and I'll give my brakes a "light" tap, just enough to flash my brake lights and wake you up out of your daze. After that, if you haven't gotten the hint, all bets are off and I'm hammering on the binders. One guy nearly ended up in ditch after I did that one time. He flashed me his high beams a few times, but stayed waaaaay back after that.
The second most irritating thing to me, are people that insist on driving slow in the left lane. Especially the ones who match the speed of the already slow driving person in the right lane and you can't get past. People....left lane is for faster traffic.....always has been, always will be. When I get annoyed enough, I'll flash my headlights in their rear view mirror. If they still don't get the hint, I'll pass them on the double line, then cut in front of them with only inches to spare between out bumpers. Cause if they weren't paying attention before, I'm certain they are now.
Damn I hate people!!!

Are you my twin? My God....if I had a penny for every dumbass driver I encounter every day to and from school/work I'd retire.100% truth.

What I want to do is make a bunch of sayings that are general enough to cover most crappy driver topics, and then have them ready. Then when I encounter someone I can hold the sign up for them when I pass them or whatever and they can read "YOU SUCK AT DRIVING, SPEED LIMIT IS 40 NOT 20 YOU DUMBASS, GO KILL YOURSELF" or something like that.
You should probably send him some flowers and a "Hope you're feeling better" card - I hear Hallmark just introduced new wacky cards - like "good luck with rehab..." maybe you could find a nice one and send it to him. You may want to include a tissue or two in case he gets too emotional about the flowers and card.
That would be the "right" thing to do....
That's what we'd all like to happen, but in reality.....they don't have a clue that they're in the wrong to begin with. So 9/10 times when we retaliate to their carelessness/incautious driving habits, they think that we're the ones being the instigators.I prefer the classic okay you just cut me off in your mini van - I am going to let it slide, pass you on the left and then cut right in front of you (a couple feet to spare) and then hit the brakes - not enough to slow down but enough for them to be like "Dammn I F**$KED up and that obnoxious guy in the yellow cobra must really knows how to drive and just taught me a lesson that I will forget in about 2 mins"

About 3 weeks ago I was done lifting so I was really pumped up and on the way home in a 55zone 2 people were driving right next to each other going 30. I was so close to killing them or just passing into the oncomming traffic...I was ready to draw blood for sure. Then right after my last class (5pm every day, so i'm already sick of being there) some freak in front of me doesn't like the fact that I want to go 35-37 in the 35MPH zone so he pulls a wise ass move and slows down purposely to 20, another person I was ready to kill.
