Road rage

I think I gave it to a guy tonight. COming back from a wedding with the wife driving through a town right off the freeway, wher the speed drops from 60 to 35 pretty quick. i drop to 35, and notice some jackass right on my bumper, which is something that pretty much instantly sets me off. he was maybe 2 feet behind me. I was going to let him go around, but there was another car right in my blind spot (2 lane road), so I couldn't change lanes. Well, about that my phone rings, and its my brother, who happened to be the car in my blind spot. He noticed the guy on my bumper and had been blocking him in and was calling to let me know so we could keep him boxed for the next two miles until the speed limit increased again. So we did (but never actually went below the speed limit). The guy was cutting back and forth, honking, flashing, etc. etc. etc...So I turned around and waved to him.

In any case, we all get to the intersection 2 miles down the road, where my brother and I were both going to be turning left, putting mr. tailgate right next to me. I figured it would be some jackass ricer racer kid, but it was actually 2 trashy guys with some gutter whore blonde with HUGE hair. The driver was wearing a NASCAR hat. I winked at him and made a kissing movement as he tried to stare me down. THis prompted the lady in the passenger seat to get out of the fucking car. NOt smart, because they were the first car in line at the red light, with about 5 cars behind them. She got halfway around the back of the their car, not sure what she wanted to do at our car, but I have no moral issues beating a rabid woman down....anyway the light turns green...the car behind them lays on the horn, so she flips him off, then sees the light is green, turns back to look at me, yells "fuck you" flips me off, and runs back to her NASCAR boyfriends car.

Still not sure what she would have done had she got to our window.



So, let's hear your best road rage stories.

I have one that involves a friend of mine actually having a guy reach through his open window and choke him...good stuff.

I don't have many examples, but I have found that people will look for the dumbest excuse to be mad at you.

Case in point: I was behind a lady in a minivan and we were both taking an exit ramp from one freeway to another. She was moving very slowly onto the second freeway and I was in a hurry, but understood she was in a van so I didn't expect her to move much faster. The second freeway was completely empty, and my TT is a damn sight faster than her van, so I waited until we were both on the road and I immediately put on my blinker, moved to the left lane, and passed her.

I guess she was upset at not having a sports car of her own, because after I passed her, my girlfriend said, "She just flicked you off."
"What? Really?" I asked.
"Yeah," she said, "And she held it up there for a long time so you'd be sure to see."

Gee lady, I'm really sorry my car is faster than yours.
:dork:

One time I pulled up to a gas pump, and one isle over a guy was just staring at me (mad dogging or what ever you want to call it). Don't know what the fuck for really, aside from him just acting all hard like a gangta or some shit. So I stared right back at him with a smile on my face because I found it to be funny. Next thing I know my 2 pit bulls wake up and pop their heads up to see why we are stopped, and as soon as that guy saw my 2 dogs he never made eye contact with me agian.

I guess you can call that service station rage or something.

That's going too far, SOAP.
You could actually have been found at least partially at fault, you know.

The only story I can think of is when I was on this two lane 1 way bridge, in the slow lane going just over the speed limit. This guy in a minivan (always those fucking minivans, I swear) comes flying up behind me. I guess he thought he could pass the people in the fast lane when he caught up to me. Well, there wasn't room. So he starts tailgating me. I mean so much that all I can see in my rear view mirror is his hood.

So I let off the gas and start coasting. I dropped down to about 30 (speed limit 60 or 65) before he had a chance to switch lanes and pass me.

He was obviously furious when I saw his face as he passed me, then he promptly cut me off.

Idiot drivers.

I was coming back from an outlying city to Van today and waiting to merge onto the freeway with the rest of the herd. Anyways, traffic is at a standstill and I watch some loser in a white Camaro gun it out and around traffic on the left side and almost slide his car down an embankment in doing so. End result: He moved up a grand total of 15 cars in the lineup. GG impatience :icon14:

1. in london my friends and i are driving around in a shitty old car, some cunt driving a limo tries to push in front of us, we dont let him, he stares, i give him the finger, he opens the door and gets half out all angry, i show him the baseball bat that was in the back of the car, smile at him, and he gets in his car and wont even look at us...no big deal apart from the fact that even now, 10yrs later i remember the plate number of his car D150 CLT, the 2 friends i was with also remember this number, some things just stick in your mind.

2. driving round japan, some cunt tries to push in front of my ex-wife, i give him the finger and he does the same to me, as i did to the cunt in london (waves a baseball bat out of the window) being a cunt, i do not want to back down from some little shit even though he has a bat, so i open my door at which point he closes his window and drives off real quick.

this was very stupid, and i dont know if i would do the same now, however I fucking hate backing down from some cunt. however I dont really want a bat in the face, i assumed he was bluffing. fuck knows...i guess i was lucky

it hurts. and concussions suck.

only atypical road-rage thing i've had was shocking a bunch of german kids i was driving around over there once. apparently it's "illegal" or something to flip people off while driving. everything was clear once i'd explained to them that: #1) i'm american, it's a reflex and #2) fuck that, volvos don't cut me off.

I don't get angry when driving, but I found having a quick little car makes me drive like an asshole (in any other car I am what I'd consider to be a great driver). This probably makes people hate me, but I avoid confrontations for the most part so I don't really care.

I remember when some teenagers in a ricer (an SRT Neon, whatever they're called) came down an entrance ramp to the highway I was on. I had glanced at them (keeping an eye out for entering vehicles), saw the state of their car, and laughed in spite of myself. They must've noticed because they immediately tried to pull up behind me (heavy traffic, so they couldn't get along side to race) and tailgated on and off, trying to show me how fast their car was. Instead of hitting the brakes, as most people probably would, I continued laughing and sped off, leaving them behind. They tried to follow, but their exit was about half a mile from where they got on the highway, so they had to slow down right away and weave through traffic to reach the ramp. That's usually what I'll do -- I'll just tear away from people who tailgate. It's just leaves them confused and looking stupid. I think of it as saying, "that's right, you're not a badass just because you drive fast."

i know im totally in the wrong, but i have realised that when im driving , im always fucking right. if im late for work everyone can drive fucking quickly or get the fuck out of my way, if you are unable to drive at a decent speed, then you shouldnt be driving on the road i use to get to work.

i justify this because i have a fucking slow car, if im able to drive at 100kmh on a certain road in my slow car, with fucked tires, no abs/airbags etc then some cunt in a brand new faster car with load of safety features can do the same.

however, if im chilling out and cruising, everyone else can do the same, if im doing the speed limit, and someone drives up my ass, i just take 10kmh off my speed and hit the brakes real early for red lights.

i am a selfish cunt. but whatever...

A friend of mine with bad road rage once did a breakstand because he was pissed off at some guy taking too long at a stop sign. That alone isn't funny except that the truck wasn't his and was his parents friends and the area where he chose to do this happened to be where his friends parents were visiting at the time. So the father got to see his truck doing a breakstand that he had lent to his son. Yeah fun times.

Another time a real good friend of mine was stuck behind this bitch putting on makeup at an intersection while she was waiting for a green light. The light turns green and he was freaking cause she wasn't moving so he "nudged" her with his car while she was looking at the rear view and putting on lipstick. Even a small bump is easily felt in a car and he hit her just hard enough for her to smear a line of lipstick all over her face... fucking classic.

One time an old man pulled out from a stop sign, while I was only going 25. I had no stop sign, and I saw that he didn't even look my way. He pulls out, see's me, I fuckin beep the shit out of him, he then gives me the "I just shit my pants" look. He then turns the other direction and we get to another stop sign, where I have my windows down, and I honk my horn like a madman flipping him off and verbally abusing the shit out of his crusty ass.

All he had to say, was a flip of the wrist. That was weak.

EDIT: And I also have to say, that women are THE worst fuckin drivers. Every time I see someone pull some stupid manuver, its always a woman. As an example, I was headed to school one morning, when I woman pulls up the short narrow driveway to the parking lot. She attempts to do turn her SUV 180 degrees, so she can turn around. The stupid cunt gets stuck because the road is narrow, and I basically laughed and went around the back of her. So, instead of going up to the massive parking lot and turning around, she opts to get stuck in the driveway. Chicks are dumb.

tnf, why didn't you just let him pass if it was a 2 lane road? You could've gotten in front of your brother's car, moved aside and let the dude who was in a hurry pass.

i was going to do that before my brother called me to let me know that he was blocking him. after that i figured why not? fuck this aggressive asshole. and we never went below the speed limit, so its not like we were being complete pricks.
