Do you get road rage?

[JustinTheGreat]

I do get road rage but I keep that shit to myself lol.
I swear to myself in the car. I don’t yell at people out my window or flip people off because people are mentally ill lmao.

I’ve heard too many stories of people literally pulling out guns or trying to hit people due to road rage.

I have a friend who was followed all the way home by this dude in a truck after she flipped him off.

So I’m not trying to trigger any loonies. I used to get mad at people but after hearing those stories, I’m all good.

I also drive in the Rhode Island/Massachusets area which are ranked as the top 2 states with the worst drivers in the country. So at this point I’m used to idiots on the road lol

Not rage, just anxiety. My heart races if someone pulls out in front of me or almost causes an accident, as I've usually got my baby in the car with me. A couple years ago i had someone who would try to follow me home, and that made my anxiety quite bad. They somehow knew what times I finished work and would wait near my street until I showed up, and then tail me. They’d be in different vehicles every time, and use their high beam lights so that I couldn’t see their number plate in my mirrors. They’d drive slowly behind me and back off and then suddenly accelerate and get right up my ass before slowing back down again. I never went home whenever they’d do it, didn’t want them knowing where I live. And they’d always drive away whenever I started driving towards the police station. Eventually they just stopped. Maybe they thought it was funny.

My dad used to say; “Getting angry only changes one thing, your blood pressure.” So I’ve always tried to live by that advice especially when I’m driving. However, I do find it a great help to listen to some chill music when dealing with terrible traffic. But If you’re listening to something like Master of Puppets by Metallica in heavy traffic, you’re probably not gonna fair well. ;)

No it's not even worth it where I leave it's a gated community kind of and when I pull out to the main road it's hard to get out sometimes so I have to just kind of force my way in there and luckily people are pretty nice about it

But I usually don't tend to piss people off not unless I'm coming home and schools getting out of something parents are trying to pull into the school to get their kids picked up and nobody will ever let them through so I always stop and I wave people from the school to leave and people turning from the Middle Lane into the school to come on and I get people behind me honking their horns and crap it's like the more they honk their horn the longer I'll sit there and let people in and out

I do not. However, I do carry a crowbar in my glove compartment cause some people really wanna try me.

[midnightmoon05]

No. The most I do is I laugh at them for racing to the next red light or race to death.
the must I say is - stupid driver.

[exitseven]

Sometimes but I have been dealing with people who cannot drive all my life so i am used to it.

[blackgaletiger]

I tend to stare at the driver in the other car. No sense in starting something

[worldscolide]

I do, but I never act on it, like you I keep it to my self.

[worldscolide]

Except the one time some shit stain chose to follow me home, he had a gun pointed in his face when he got out of his car. Sorry never follow me home.
