I Can't Be Alone Here: Do you get road rage and how do I stop
Title says it all. Some jackarse in a black TSX cut me off today so freaken close that I had to honk at him...for a long time He gives me the finger and proceeds to brake suddenly for the next minute of so so try to get me to hit him. At this point, Im hella pissed off and I might have cut him off. Im over it at this point, but the guy continues to follow me home. Obviously, I didnt stop, but eventually he gave up.
It just really ticks me off when people do something and try to start something with me. Im not an angry person and I rarely get angry or show emotion face to face. Its when Im in the car that I really blow up. Must be something about being in the security of a car. Just hope I dont run into someone with a gun in the future.
How do you guys tame your own road rage. I have heard over and over again to just let it go, but when it happens, something just takes over and you cant control it.

i used to get really bad road rage until my fiancee nagged it out of me.
Of course when i'm alone it sometimes comes back, but for the most part, you're going to realize there are a LOT of idiots on the road and you should only get mad at the ones that almost wreck you.
selective road rage ftw.

I just yell a lot. I try not to let myself do dumb stuff like tailgate someone, but it's tough to let go when people endanger you and your car and act like they have a right to get pissed off at you. Verbal release is my method

If you don't want to handle the consequences of using Road Rage, well think of those consequences. Relax and just laugh it off if you can. If its that serious, hell take their tag # down. There is nothing wrong with screaming at the top of your lungs every creative curseword you can think of. Maybe time to get tinted windows.
Or you can do what Kevin does.

Don't forget, chances are that if that other aggressive driver doesn't change HIS (or her) ways, HE could wind up a casualty on the nightly news.......while you are watching, still in one piece, and with a clean driving record.

The same, unfortunately, cannot be said for many Mustang V8 and (some) BMW jocks. Over the years, I've seen more kids and young adults killed in Mustangs than any other single vehicle.

As a trucker, road rage is not only present,,it's a job requirement!! LOL!!(j/k). I get instances or aggressive drivers everyday, all day, all across the country. I just have to keep myself in check, and remember that my potential actions could kill someone. I just normally get myself away from the situation, and then laugh it off. Stupid does not beget stupid.

yeah, most souped up tsx drivers are annoying little kids.
best to let em go.
but sometimes i just wanna chase them down.
screw what kevin does. I'd get a fake gun, and drive along side them, and scare them for a bit.
actually a train horn would be nice in this case.
