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.

With my face against the floor I can’t see who knocked me out of the way. I don’t want to get back up but I have to so it might as well be today. Nothing appeals to me no one feels like me, I’m too busy being calm to disappear. I’m in no shape to be alone contrary to the shit that you might hear. You can't wake up, this is not a dream. 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

When I saw that the most recent post in this thread was by you, I actually knew it was going to be something homophobic and non-constructive and look I was right. I'm really not kidding either.

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.

Didn't say anything about going the same speed as the people in the right

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.
