I drive all day and I wish I had a rocket launcher in the front or at least that little device with several sound effects.

I'll tell a story of someone getting road rage towards me...

I was 16 and has basically just gotten my liscense. My friend and I were headed to down the road and started going up this big hill. We got behind this old buick, going about 15-20. The speed limit is 45, mind you. At this time, I had my v6 mustang, so I couldn't actually drop it and go around him, considering going up such a steep hill (probably wouldn't make it. we all know how weak v6s are lol), so I honked my horn at him. There was absolutely no need to go that slow on that road. There were no turnoffs coming up for him to use or anything, just a straight road up hill. Any way, just at the crest of the hill, he proceeds to slam on brakes in the middle of the road with me right on his ***. I all but hit him. He gets out and it is this like big, balding, biker type dude (although driving a POS buick). He gets out ranting and raving threatening to beat my *** and yelling at me right at my window. It was summer, so of course my window was already down, and b/c I so close to him when we stopped, I couldn't just go around him. So we had to sit there and listen to this guy rant and rave and threaten until he tired himself out. Remember, we were two 16 year old kids, and this is some huge biker dude, who had a friend with him. Needless to say, we were scared s***less. There was nothing we could do. Since then, I am always careful to notice the drivers around me and pick on the ones that are old, small, weak, etc. lol. I guess I am lucky he didn't have a gun with him. He seemed like the type that would use one.

well ok smartass. remember, I was only 16 and not really in that mindset of what to do in a situation like that at the time and by the time I would have been able to back up and go around, he was already out and standing in the middle of the other lane coming at me. I was just telling a story. It's funny to me now, but not so much then.

Well around a year ago a friend of mine and I went too lunch in my Stang.We just went to this truck stop that serves some damn good BBQ sandwitches.When I pulled in to park I noticed that this old guy in a pickup truck was parked a little bit at an angle and if he did'nt notice that I had pulled in next to him he could back up into my baby.

So I noticed that he's about to back out so I wait before I decide to get out.Yep he did'nt even look to see and was inches away from slamming my door with his bumper so I honked my horn.He slams the brakes and pulls up and backs up again,straight this time.

The next thing he did which really pissed me off was he tried starring me down like I had done something wrong and then he started mouthing something and flipped me off.Damn that drove me nuts.I got out of the Stang and started yelling at him,he was already moving and slammed on his brakes again like he was going to get out and do something.Well that set me over the edge because all I did was honk to let him know he was about to hit my car.I started yelling a little bit more and started to run toward his truck.He freaked and floored it and drove away very fast with his wife screaming at him.

After he left me and my buddy laughed our asses off.
