What do you yell at other drivers?

  • 4cards
    ...Yesterday I saw a car cut off a guy on his motorcycle and when the biker got back in front of the car, he started yelling back at the people in the car. I couldn't hear him but was trying to think what must he be yelling at them. I know when I get pissed off at people in front of me driving 50 in the passing lane or cutting me off I generally tell them their either a fucking asshole, flip them off or something similar. What do you do?

    "Fucking c*nt" is my go-to for anything starting from mild annoyance up to complete rage.

    When I'm in the right lane, doing the speed limit, and some idiot is a foot off my rear bumper for several miles, and then he beeps his horn and throws his hands up (or flashes his high-beams if it's night time), I usually smile and say, "Oh, am I going to too fast? No problem, I'll just slow it down a little ........".

    Where I live there is a school zone in the middle of a busy road that's normally 50MPH. There is a cop in this area about 80% of the time as well. I can't tell you how many times I've slowed down to the school zone speed limit and had people behind me riding my ass and flipping me off. What they should be doing is thanking me for preventing them from getting a ticket. I'm sure most of these people are not even aware their in a school zone.

    These are the days I typically feel the intense desire to make sure my brakes still work really well.

    One needs to remember that half the drivers on the road are below average behind the wheel.

    I usually wave or give a thumbs up.

    It typically adds to the other peoples' madness.

    In the RIGHT lane? OK, those people are psychotics. If you were in the left lane, then you has psychotics.

    Hilarious when people get popped in a school zone. It is only for a short time of the day, just slow down. Years go snow on the ground. Not enough even for a delay. GOt behind a lady going 35 on the highway. Too busy to pass and I was getting fired up as it was like 10 miles at slow speed.....As we enter town I slow down because the school zone is right there. She keeps going 35....and gets pulled over. LOVED IT

    Not a day goes by where some jackass doesn't go left of center heading my way because they are playing with their damn cell phone --- they get the horn and a few expletives. The highways are becoming a battle zone because many people are literally addicted to the devices.

    It's always fun watching Con trying to understand humans and how they process emotion.

    Some of the smartest people in the world have Aspergers.

    I understood it just fine, thank you. I simply choose to ask a leading question in an attempt to point out such anger reactions are signs of a lack of discipline and emotional weakness. Sorry you missed that.
