    I'm hyper aware, and I don't "rage" but neither will I deny that abject stupidity on the road makes me angry. That fight or flight response to danger? Yeah, I only have one setting, and it's not the flight one. Potential harm to my children (ie, nearly hitting my car) raises my hackles. To be honest, it didn't bother me too much before children...

    fair enough stupidity still raises my ire level too. I no longer react by yelling etc I learned a long time back to control my temper. Do I wish people paid attention to the rules of the road better though 100 % particularly on the highway whre people don't understand stay right (I mean stay right except to pass period, i don't give a toss how fast you are going but you need to stay right except when passing - busier highways have enough lanes that except during rush hour the leftmost lane should be pretty clear . This is something i find is far better in europe

    That one pisses off my husband. I don't care what people do or how fast (or slow!) they go, provided they don't almost hit my car. I only get mildly annoyed with the idiots who insist on staying in the left lane, whether they're passing or not. I do a fair amount of driving in upstate NY (north of the capitol) and what bothers me more is the French Canadians (Quebec plates!) who seem to like playing leapfrog on the interstate. I don't want a road buddy!

    Well, I think my time here is done.

    This place has proved a point to me and that is, there are so many losers in this world and I think they all reside on MFP.

    I came looking for some support and got shot down. Any one who thinks road rage is okay, I hope you have it with the wrong person. Maybe it'll be me. I need to go buy myself that gun!

    Those who were helpful. Thank you so much. I know what I need to do (I won't shoot him) :smile:

    Good bye and good riddance :wink:

    change only takes place when the end result is a bad outcome.

    May be you should stop over reacting and find a middle ground.

    Maybe you should get your macho *kitten* out of my thread!

    Net Rage ?

    I used to have road rage until my fiancé told me "you don't understand how ignorant you look when you act like that" Try that. I didn't want to be ignorant. Talk about a wake up call.

    Get him $1000+ in parking tickets.
    His car will get tire locked if you put it right in front of a school zone on busy unloading hours.

    Walk away.


    Problem solved. There!

    My husband is a road rager (a calm collected planner of retaliation) . I told him to retaliate rage if he must when we (my daughter and I) are NOT in the car.

    He got in an altercation once and beat the hell outta someone. That person said they would bring their gun back and shoot him. Thank God he didn't.

    Ummmmm, I want no part of that stupid stuff.




    Ask him to refrain when you are in the car out of respect for you.....the end.

    Yea I would just have her thrown in jail for grand theft for doing that and see that all fines were directed to her. Good plan though.

    Assuming it's as serious as you say it is, I'm just wondering why you would continue to date someone who behaves like this. Is this not a red flag for you?

    I know..... and I have left him for this reason and the usual "I'll change" begins. I think this is aging me! I love him but I hate him.

    Don't take him back next time.
