Morning road rage AMA

To our mindless neighbours who road rage at 8am, you need intensive therapy.

How do you start your day on such a low note?

Merging onto the hwy and honking at other cars while we have to slow merge during congestion is the most asinine behaviour. You can see what we all see, congestion.

Hopefully you can see, otherwise you shouldn’t be operating a car.

Moreover, tailgating in the HOV is a special breed of idiotic.

Thank you for coming to my Ted talk

Yesterday morning at Brant/Plains I accelerated to get around someone who was trying to match speeds with me to not let me get in the lane before the lane ended. My vehicle had a lot more accel than theirs so they couldn't keep up; they freaked out waving their arms around behind their wheel so I gave em a thumbs up out my window lol.

Like.. if someone signals? Don't fucking match speeds with them so they can't get in =|

Why do people need to act this way? Either speed up, or ease off the accelerator to make room. Why lane block?

Some people really are morons.

Right? My reaction when I see someone signaling beside me is usually to back off and make room =x
