Not as much honking as Evan will be doing when he releases his next quest!

Don't worry about road rage, the real enemy is roid rage. You should all be concerned about roid rage.

Motorists are the best people. Everyone is so considerate while operating their 3,000lbs. hunk of metal at speeds that could pulverize a brain. No one ever dies from driving, or gets mad, it's a-okay, come buy a car today!

If you have driven on the road for at least a year, chances are you have definitely seen it, or have been guilty of it yourself.  Chances are that at least one person on this site has road rage. :P  I myself used to get more angry at other drivers for their behaviors (too slow, too fast, not using the signal when needed, etc.), but I have learned that it generally isn't worth it to get angry over things you have little to no control over yourself.  Now that doesn't completely prevent me from getting angry about other drivers on the road, but I think it has helped significantly.  The reality is that some people on the road are only thinking about themselves, and even if they aren't in a hurry, it's hard for them to get out of that state of mind.  People are often more courageous behind the steering wheel.  I also find this behavior seems most common among those driving non-commercial pickup trucks and certain types of SUVs, such as Jeeps.

 

Also, don't mix road rage and roid rage.  The effects multiply.

I've seen road rage on a number of occasions but there's no particularly recent incident that I can recall. More often than not I tend to ride my bike over driving a car whenever the weather is suitable for it. It makes for good exercise and beats riding in what is essentially a flying death coffin.

Don't worry about road rage, the real enemy is roid rage. You should all be concerned about roid rage.

That cracked me up. :lol:

Road rage has existed since at least 1928:

non-commercial pickup trucks

Those damned things, especially the ones with extra tires tacked on the back. Doesn't give me road rage so much as they give me parking rage...

You could achieve lightspeed travel on the highway, and there will *still* be a fullsize Dodge Ram riding your ass with its brightass LED headlights glaring into your mirrors.
