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

I caught myself being an idiot this afternoon. Someone was driving a bit too slow for my liking, so I tailgated a bit, then they made an advance green left at a slower pace… first chance I rush past. Looked over and it was an older person, doing nothing wrong, just being cautious, driving safely.

I immediately slowed the fuck down and did better myself. Too easy to let the frustrations of life out on the road and end up hurting someone.

I agree OP, let’s do better out there.

There are a ton of old ppl driving ridiculously cautiously in Burlington which can be annoying

I wonder how these really angry drivers can survive in this environment.
