    Default Road Rage....

    ...how do you deal with it?

    I can't make myself calm down right now, but I'm usually a really laid back person.

    Same here, really laid back till some **** on the road gets under my skin and all hell breaks lose - theres no horns blaring, lights or hand signals. It's not very clever but it gets the message across at the time.... then you reliese your as bad as them.

    road rage is all about bruised egos.. either avoid upsetting someone by driving like a vicar, or if you are going to drive in a more forceful manner, make sure you don't hang about long enough to see the other persons reaction...

    I was driving like a vicar until aggravated . I was doing 30 in a 30 and was tailgated, so I braked and then sped back up to 30, cue tooting of the horn and more tailgating from behind, this continues for 4 miles until I stopped got out and told her to back the f**k off. She tried to tell me I'd be liable if she'd hit me. I can't believe the stupidity of some people.

    I've had that before Dan, female driver really close behind, hit the brakes a few times, she didnt take the hint so i stopped and leaned out the window and shouted to her to back off, maybe a silly thing to do but i was p**sed off at the time!

    Also hate people who sit in the outside lane of a dual carriageway for no reason, had one car that didnt seem keen to move, after blasting the horn a bit, flashing lights and indicators, they eventually pulled into the left lane and let me past :D

    Yes, i can be a bit of an a**e when stupid drivers annoy me

    I once followed a woman home after she cut me up, well, she pulled out infront of me, so me being annoyed, followed her, overtook her and cut in sharp, then she didnt indicate at the roundabout, so i went straight on, she went left, so i turned round and went after her, when she stopped at her house, she came over to me and threatened me with a garden rake Then later on i got a phonecall from the police saying i should have just reported her, as if they'd actually do anything if i did report it
