What makes you "road rage?"?

Question

Here is mine;

I am driving along, 45 mph, right lane. 4 lane road. A lady behind me suddenly goes around me at very high speed, pulls quickly in front of me; and then SLAMS on her brakes...

To make a right turn!!

She could not wait 2-3 seconds for me to pass by the intersection?

After I stopped SKIDDING down the road, to keep from crashing into the back of her, I turn the corner also...

And blew my horn all the way down the road, behind her until she pulled into a company parking lot.

Never got THAT angry before, or ever again. Many annoyances and "slights," but never that bad!!

Answer 1

Same ****. Stupid people. The roads are crawling with them.

Answer 2

slow drivers or people that change lanes right in front of you and leave you about a foot of space.

One that really ticked me off was today...there was a lady in a Buick that was taking a left turn and then all of a sudden she decided she didn't want to take a left turn anymore and then without a turning signal changed right into my lane, If I hadn't had braked as quickly as I did I would had slammed right into her, she wasn't even paying attention to the fact that I was less than a car length behind her when she suddenly decided to change into my lane. So I held down my horn for about 5 seconds...

Stuff like that makes me mad, not paying attention to the other cars around you is the perfect way to hurt someone.

Answer 3

Yeah, I have that happen all the time. You should try it with 46,000 pounds of paper rolls trailing behind you.

Answer 4

My dad has a fairly fast car (Mercedes E500, V8, 5 liters) and what ticks both of us off the most when we're in the Mercedes is when the carr in front of us doesn't signal and goes into the next lane halfway and then not signaling again, goes back into the lane that we are in. When the car goes halfway into the other lane, my dad goes a little faster because of the free space between that car and the next stoplight but when they suddenly just cut back into our lane without signaling, (cell phone, talking, arrogance, ignorance, etc.) it really gets vexatious and makes us livid.

So what happens? My dad stomps on the break, says a few curse words, signals and changes into the next lane when there aren't anymore cars in the next lane, floors the gas, and flys by the horrible driver. When I get my first car (RSX-S with mods), I'm going to cut off the driver and change into his/her lane without experience.

Answer 5

people that cut right in front me or people that fly by me on the highway when i'm already doing 5 to 10 mph over the speed limit but when people do that i get pissed and pass them just to p**s them off

Answer 6

I live in LA so I get pissed a lot but you never know who's got a gun so I try to keep it cool
