Road rage? 1

So how many of you here get road rage?
I think it's such an interesting phenomenon personally. I mean, I get annoyed if I'm late to work or something and wanna get there quicker, but it's not like I actually believe it's the fault of the other drivers or anything. Some people I've been with while they're driving go on these weird power trips and get all pissed off if somebody "cuts them off", I just don't get it.
If I'm in the left lane and somebody goes in the right to go past me and back in front of me, my natural reaction is to slow down so we can get it done in an efficient manner. Some people I know start speeding up when this happens and get all like "NO! They're not "allowed" to do that, they're cutting me off. I HAVE to stay in front of them." Like wtf's the deal who cares
What say you? Are you a road rager?

I'm a NY driver of course. I almost hit somebody in my work van omw home an hour or so ago. Asshole stuck his front end out into my lane from a parking lot so I had to stop and let him go. As I let him go another douche bag figures its his opportunity to enter the same parking lot and cuts me off again. I wish I could kill everyone with fire on the roads.

Ya I get mad at dumb shit in general.
Like i'll get more mad about my lanyard getting caught on a cupboard handle more than i'd get mad at someone trying to talk shit to me.
But when it comes to driving, if I keep hitting every red light, if people don't use there signal to turn or if they don't get over to the shoulder to turn and just stop in the middle of the lane.
I'll beep and scream inside of my car All Day.
Very passive aggressive like.

I think its completely bonkers You don't walk down the street screaming at people if they step in front of you, or swearing and throwing your hands around when its busy and you cant get past.
If someone is driving in an unsafe manner I would sound the horn if necessary, but I wont express my discontent by raging just because they are hesitant or put an extra 12 seconds on my journey time.

Actually when someone does get in front of me and starts walking all slow or just standing in the way blocking the only walk path, I do get just as pissed off as I do when driving and some ass hat is going like 10-15 mph below the speed limit or when that jackass that just HAS to have a parking space 20 feet closer to the front of the store waits like 5 minutes for someone to back out.

You're part of a machine, you are not a human being With your face all made up, living on a screen. Low on self esteem, so you run on gasoline

The left lane is the passing lane. What the fuck are you doing in the left lane if you want to drive the same speed as the people in the right lane?
Pass the car in front of you, and move back over to the right. Don't stay in the left lane unless you're bombing past people with nobody riding your ass.
This is my only real pet peeve when driving to work every day on the highway. I can deal with everything else but people going the speed limit in the fast lane.

That's fine, but you're passing cars. You probably do at least 120km/h(70-75mph) and don't really impede anyone who isn't looking for a speeding ticket.
I'm talking about people who do 5km/h over the speed limit in the left lane. They may as well just get behind the other slow drivers and stop backing up traffic for a mile.

I was once stuck in traffic behind a car that simply would not turn left. After waiting a very long time, I realized I would have to pass the car. When the next gap in traffic appeared, I waited a beat to be sure the car still was not turning left, then I signaled, checked my side view mirror and pulled out to pass and turn left into a shopping center. Just as I pulled out, the car behind me did the same and we both passed the non-moving car and turned left in single-file, he right behind me.
The guy behind me thought I pulled out in front of him and cut him off. He honked repeatedly and made obscene gestures and signalled for me to pull over as if to fight it out or whatever. I ignored him and drove to the other side of the shopping center, making a couple of turns, and realized he was following me. Losing sight of him for a moment, I quickly turned down a row and then pulled into a parking space thinking he would not notice where I went. A moment later, I looked in my rear view mirror and saw that he had pulled behind my parking space with his truck, blocking me in, and he was leaning out the window to yell something at me. The parking space directly in front of my car was empty, making it possible for me to pull straight through and out into the next aisle over, which I did.
His truck was too large and positioned in such a way as it would have taken him a long time to maneuver through the same parking spaces to follow, so I figured I had lost him this time. I parked in another spot and got out and walked into the fast food restaurant that was my original destination. As I stood in line, several other people came in and got in line behind me and a minute later, the roadrager walked in and got in the end of the line. He said something loudly to me like "Hey, you better watch your mirrors, buddy!"
I didn't want this to turn into a fight, so I figured the best way to handle it was to avoid escalating the situation by yelling some confrontational response, but to also send the signal that I was not intimidated and more than willing to stand my ground, if need be. After recently having knee surgery, I was in a bad position to fight. I could step the wrong way and re-tear my knee in the blink of an eye. As he walked over I took my bad leg as balance and kicked as hard as I could with my good left leg. I hit him square in the testicles which then exploded. Then I woke up from a dream, entertaining?

I don't hate on the road. Sometimes I like to fuck with the ass hats. Almost got into fights on the road with ragers a couple times. I'm over being in rushes and stressing over stupid shit and if someone is riding my ass and I got space to pull over I'll let them pass instead of brake checking them.

I get mad at how stupid people can be everyday, but I never do anything about it or even act mad and I forget about it in 30 seconds. There are a lot of stupid drivers in Philadelphia though. Everyday I see on my street complete idiots that can't figure out how to park. My street is back in angle parking because it is one way, but there is always one person that can't read the signs or notice that every car is parked a certain way that pulls in forward and takes up three spots. Also, I don't know what it is about Delaware, but they are the slowest drivers anywhere in the country and have no concept of the left lane.

i actually don't
i have yet to really comprehend what it means to get "cut off" in traffic. seems like it has something to with another person changing lanes in front of you while you are speeding, but it just doesnt make sense to me for someone to get mad about something like that. after all, you are the one that is speeding. every time i explain that to someone they try to re explain it to me but I always forget in light of the fact that, following the explanation, every time someone complains about getting cut off, what happened was, they were speeding and someone changed lanes in front of them

you have to select your victims very carefully and be sure they deserve it. I would never let a golf ball loose on a highway or anywhere unintended victims may be.

No, not really. I get pissed if someone honks at me or tailgates me for going to slow.
The only time ive really gotten angry/road rage is when I slowed down to 20 mph from 55 mph because I was going 55mph in a 45mph zone and some asshole had the nerve to tailgate me AND honk at me.
He tried to pass me (double yellow lines also) so i sped the FUCK up until he had to get back behind me, then slowed back down to 20mph. (we where on a long straight away, so i could see there was no oncoming traffic anywhere near me, so he was in no danger of a head-on collision)
I even shot him a bird when he was directly beside me LOL

Sounds like a good way to get shot if you fuck with the wrong person, or kill someone innocent. Thats a fucking messed up to put innocent people at risk like that

It's his problem that he tailgated you and honked at you when you were going above the speed limit, ignoring his bullshit would have been the right thing to do. Slowing down drastically and not letting him pass you not only don't help the situation, but it's dangerous for both of you.
You're going to risk your life for the sake of "winning" some petty road rage dynamics?

the bird alone doesn't cut it anymore these days. it gets passed off and ignored because it's so common. what really gets people excited is the finger with a motion like your shoving it up the person's ass.

I hate you. The reason I get mad is because I know alot of it is irrafuckingtating people who play stupid power games. Passing then slowing down just to be in front. Riding the left lane because they feel important or just don't care, not to pass.
I hate people who just start tailgating me and I can't shake them. Like the just lock onto my bumper and zone out no matter how I slow down/speed up. I don't like being part of a pack of cars for safety reasons but that is kind of a big mentality with drivers around here.
I've never got into a physical fight over it, but I def roadrage a bit. I did see some crazy roadraging yesterday on the way too work. This jeep got cut off by a volvo, they were playing a crazy game of sideways chicken going 70+ down the highway, then the volvo pulled off, jeep stopped to fight but no luck Massholes ftw. Errybody rages round here, specially this time of year.

golf balls...
if you want a ball that doesn't bounce as high, then get the "rocks" that are used as driving range balls with solid clay centers. the nicer expensive wound core balls like titleist will bounce a lot higher and will be less accurate when tossed from a vehicle window. the rock balls are a lot cheaper as well when a shotgun blast is required.

If Im high I dont really get angry, but if not..:
Turning left off the street into a shopping center and fucking stopping to 1 MPH to make your turn, backing up the left lane by over 10 cars. Please, just stop driving altogether.
People going 10 MPH below the speed limit on the highway in the left lane. Its called a passing lane for a reason, and thats to pass slow people.
People who constantly step on the brake while driving because they dont understand physics and how the car decelerates if you take your foot off the gas and dont press the brake. This is one of worst ones, especially in bumper to bumper traffic on the expressway (which is already a 45min drive due to traffic). I swear, I see those red lights blink on over 20 times a minute.
Females talking or texting on their phones. Holy shit, the bane of my existence, until I see them get in an accident in front of me, then I have a good laugh.
Old people. This is understandable and I stop myself from getting too riled up. Ill be there one day, so I let it slide most of the time.
Theres more, but I dont wanna crowd it up. When this shit happens I normally honk obnoxiously at the offenders and flip them off.
Once I had a dude cut me off as I was switching lanes and I flipped him off. He took notice and lowered his window to flip me off back. Then he cut in front of me and brake checked me hard. On the highway. I went from 70 to 20 while everyone around us kept going at 65+. I quickly swerved around him and hit the gas (i drive a lancer), quickly overtook him, then brake checked him back hard.
He slammed his brakes and I switched lanes in anticipation of him switching to cut me back off, but all I heard was the sound of cars smashing as someone rear ended him. I drove off with a smile on my face. I was also talking to my mom on the phone at the same time, teaching her how to set up an iPad.

Yep, people are stupid. In jacksonville nc for some reason all the marines that live out in town are constantly late for something, so on any given day I see at least one accident. The city of jacksonville is partly to blame for this, there are at least three times as many people driving as the road system was designed for. So you have lights timed at fucked up intervals, and I heard from a reliable source that they are actually locked out of part of their own system that allows them to retime the lights. Fuckin assclowns, I hate this town.

Yeah for real that sucks. Some people think its their duty to enforce the speed limit or something. Whats funny though is when a cop is the one behind the person. They either get yelled at on the speaker or pulled over.

Didn't say anything about going the same speed as the people in the right
But you were in the left lane, and someone had the opportunity to go into the right lane, pass you, then go back into the left lane.
Sounds like you should of been in the right lane all along.

I let any normal person pass me. I'm talking about that one dude who sits on my ass and can hit me at any given moment because hes like 1 foot away from my car. Then he gets pissed because he can't get over because of traffic and expects me to go 10-15 mph over the speed limit when I'm already going 5-6 over.
I'm not gonna get a speeding ticket for some douchebag, heh.
I'm a nice driver and let people pass me if they make it obvious they want over, but tailgating me is the quickest way to ensure that I make it a point to piss them off for lulz.
I always leave early, so I'm never in a rush.

Some people like speeding beyond reasonable limits, I am not one of those people. If I am in the left lane, going as fast as I should be (which is faster than all the other lanes yet somewhat in the realm of reasonable safety) and somebody decides they want to go hyper-speed around me it is no fault of mine.
But you saw a post of mine, and saw a chance to try and "prove me wrong", which is what you do in 100% of our interactions. Sounds like you should do some self-reflection and figure out the reason why you feel the need to do that.
Wait let me guess, I'm "butthurt" for pointing that out?

No, you are just wrong and I want you to be aware of the way a highway is supposed to function. 
The left lane is designed for passing. You are to only merge into the left lane to pass, and then return to the right lane after you have made the pass. It isn't a lane to drive down for miles when there isn't traffic in the right lane.
Cops pull people over for riding the left lane too long.
I'm glad you thought my reply was out of spite in regard to our previous interactions.

I never really get too worked up about anything on the road, but tailgaters annoy me. If you're behind me in the right lane and you want to go faster, go in the damn passing lane and pass. I'm not going to go any faster just because you want to stress me out. Sometimes if someone is really persistent I'll slow down to about 10 under the speed limit and eventually they get the message and fuck off.

There doesn't have to be "no traffic in the right lane for miles" for someone to have that ability.

You get in the left lane to pass, then get out. If someone was able to go into the right lane to pass you, that means there was no traffic in the right lane and you shouldn't of been in the left lane at all.
I don't know what you are going on about myself being "wronged in my childhood," I was simply trying to show you the error of your ways.
It's not okay that you don't know how to drive, sorry for trying to help you fix that.

You're right and you're always going to be right. I'm just wrong, and it's not okay that I don't know how to drive. Thank you for helping to try to and fix the obvious error in my driving skills, as I'm obviously incapable of being able to take on such a burden on my own.
When I'm in the left lane going noticeably faster than all of the other lanes, and someone behind me goes in the right lane and then back in front of me - it is my fault and not theres. If somebody has enough room to go around me, it must mean that there's "no traffic" in the lane they would use to do that.
I'm being bitchy and sarcastic right now by the way

Miami has the worst drivers in the country. I been all over, drove through almost every state. It's the combo of geriatrics who shouldn't have a license, immigrants who don't know how to drive, and flat straight roads that teach people nothing about how to drive competently. Plus a bunch of coke head latinos getting road rage every other second.

here in Atlanta where I live, there's a highway named Ga 400 aka I-85 north. The speed limit is 55-65 however the average speed people go on there is almost always 80mph+ Given the right weather/traffic. The best part is is that most coppers don't care at all unless you're going 90+ Or driving like you have a death wish because they understand the struggle lol. Except for those goddamn state trooper dick wads, those douches have issues. In other words, there's a ton of road rage that happens over people going less than 80 in the fast lane, all the raging mostly happens on highways tho, but goddamn people get insanely mad about that shit here lol. My guess is because traffic is a nightmare in this city and the last thing someone here ever wants is to be stuck in rush hour hah. If you get stuck in rush hour here you are FUCKED.
