Yeah he looked like a normal dude, played football within the city, owned his own business in the city (towing/auto sales)


Probably a fender bender and they exchanged words and the dude took it to another level after having too many drinks and feeling insulted.

I will never understand it. The mentality of road rage completely alludes me. It happens EVERYWHERE,and eventually to almost every person who drives.

A few weeks ago, a man driving a pickup cut me off. Silly me, tooted my horn at him, as this was my knee-jerk reaction. Apparently, my reaction made him feel threatened, so he flipped me the bird and hauled arse down the road showing me who was the boss. I guess I'm lucky he didn't get a gun out.

All this in huge, horribly unsafe metropolis of Mountain Home,AR. Or it could have been that he felt threatened by me and had to prove he was tougher, since I am a white-haired woman driving a little Chevy. Had to have scared the shite out of him.

tldr; I don't get the mentality of road rage; it has nothing to do with NOLA or any other city, nothing to do with race, or what provoked the incident. YOU do something stupid, scare the other driver, the other driver honks at you, so YOU react and might even blow them away.

What ever happened to "Oops, I fricked up, sorry I almost caused an accident. I'll go on my way now."
