Controlling emotions isn’t something that comes naturally. It needs to be learned. A lot of people never learn, so the first reaction is an emotional one, whether it’s anger or something else. We’re probably wired that way due to some fight or flight reaction, self-preservation, but I’m just guessing.

I’m not one to tattle but I would’ve got plates and called in. If you can’t follow weapon safety, you don’t need a gun. Or I would have brake checked their arse then they run from either a stolen vehicle or get arrested.

Happened on Florida near Sherwood to me in an EASILY identifiable vehicle and cops didn't car. Dude was pointing an AR at multiple vehicles in rush traffic. I had half a mind to blow his head off... but even if legally justified...

This happened in Baton Rouge. The cops wouldn’t have done shite. Hell, BRPD is making people fill out a Lexus Nexis report online as a Police report, they’re not even sending uniform officers out to make reports, due to staffing issues.
OP would’ve wasted his time calling BRPD. Citizens are truly on their own, protecting themselves and their families in BR.

You are inquiring about why people show guns in frustration. You provide an example of a time that happened to you in which an individual determined that you were following too closely and banished a gun. You provide statistical data that you are equal with 70% of other drivers. You would like to go to Wild West and fist fight

Because of computers and video games. In those two arenas people can say and do what they want without any consequences and they do not develop social skills.

That’s because you were tailing too close to see the license plate.

So tailgating and this shite will stop happening. Half a car length, really?

You can still get killed by getting punched. Russians don't have guns, but they step out with crowbars and baseball bats.
Societal trust is at an all-time low and you expect people to trust the other person isn't going to try to one-up them?

When the car next to you pulls a gun, you pull out an AR that'll show them.
