    Default Road rage

    Saw two fuckin idiots raging on each other on bow bottom south, close to canyon meadows drive. a black truck, and a small car. Each cut the other off about 2 times each between the intersection going into diamond cove, and then at canyon meadows itself where they both turned and headed westbound on canyon meadows..... So many near collisions....

    How dumb are people? Really?

    just a while ago i saw someone force there way into a traffic line from a merging lane, The people who got cut off actually got out of the car when everyone was stopped at the following red light, to yell/threatin (sp) the other drive.

    thats psycho... people need to relax a bit. for one thing, its snowy and icy out there now.... they should ask themselves if its really worth it risking their lives driving recklessly just to "get even" with another driver. But then again they're probably to dumb to ever rationalize anything.

    heh.. that's called "MERGING"... I fucking hate it when people close the gaps and try to cut you off. I just go anyway, and let them figure it out.

    what I hate even more is when people stop in the merge lanes treating it as a yield.

    road rage goes away when you crash your car and get slammer into the windshield...

    Yes, road rage is bad ! But let me ask you this ! If someone cuts you off, or does something extemely rude or ignorant what shoudl you do?.... nothing ?
    What will the person learn that does it ?
    Nothing, the person will do it more because they know they can get away with it !
    There is no answer to road rage, and if people calm down a bit because they are scared half the people who drive have guns, then GOOD... I would hate to see how people drive with no worries of getting shot for what they do !

    I'd probably finger them at the next chance i got but seriously, you don't know how close they came to hitting each other each time they cut each other off. Although in the work truck me and the other guys woulda been able to stop, but you could so see it happening, they both turned off like i said to go westbound on canyon meadows, and im sure the battle continued.... finger someone, express your frustration that way. I can't justify cutting people off just to get even... but hey if you'd rather risk your own safety, and risk possible damage to your car, do what you have to to feel better than the other guy...

    When I first started driving, I would flip out on the road if something even remotely bothered me. I don't know why. Especially traffic. Traffic made me crazy, I would sit in my car, screaming and punching the steering wheel.

    After a while I learned to calm down. Traffic gave me an excuse to be late to things that I didn't really want to do.

    True enough =/ I guess the best way to combat that, is to smile and wave, just so you get the satisfaction of pissing them off even more.... lunatics

    road rage here is worse. like a long time ago a guy shot a woman in the back of the head because she cut him off. another was a man attacked another driver with golf clubs when they both pulled over.
