Think we need a Road Rage subsection

I am 61. I never experienced road rage until the last few years. I don't think it is rage of drivers on the road. I think road rage has now become political, racist, anger, etc. and other catalysts. I have seen road rage while driving, but immediately distance myself from it. Just more stupid ####.

Hmm, political or racist? The one time I really experienced it, it was a holy roller who thought I had cut him off, he even followed into a 7-11 store and got in my face screaming at me. Then went out into the parking lot to harangue my wife and toss a pamphlet in the window at her. I think it's just another aspect of the deterioration of the societal expectation of self control. "It's okay to let all your emotions out, go ahead Johhny, we'll wait while you throw a tantrum". Rudeness and societies lack of being willing to stand up and say, "NO! Courtesy has a place and should be used".

Here's another.


So, one aspect of that that I just noticed was the bikers yelling at the driver to "Get out the car". So, you are alone, yu've got five bikers who have you pinned in, telling you to get out the car. You can wait til they get off the bikes to come get you out the car (remember New York? ) or you can GTFO of Doge NOW!?

Now, we knows this guys history, so that line seems a bit weak, but were he a model citizen, it might play well in court.
