I will admit that I have a slight case of road rage...especially when I'm in a hurry and people are just stupid drivers and make my commute that much longer.
Probably the worse thing that has happened to me occurred on the Interstate. It was about a month ago and I was following my then boyfriend home from his work. The speed limit on the interstate is like 60 but everyone goes well above. I tend to stick to the 5-above the speed limit rule...so I was going about 65 maybe pushing 70. I was in the far right lane and this chick in a sporty red car started approaching behind me at enormous speeds. I thought to myself, I'll try to speed up so she can pass me. But no...she got so damn close I thought she was going to plow right into me. It wouldn't have been so irritating if she didn't then proceed to tailgate me for the remainder of the trip. Then, everytime I changed lanes she did too. Finally she changed into another lane, cut me off and then tailgated my boyfriend's car. He's an aggressive driver so he started just speeding more and more and she kept up right with him. I just wish she would have hit my car so it would have been her fault for following too close...plus then she would have learned a lesson.
