Road Rage

Road rage is a term used to refer to violent behavior by a driver of an automobile or other motor vehicle, which thus causes collisions or incidents on roadways. It can be thought of as an extreme case of aggressive driving. I'll admit to not being the best driver around and once I did get out of my car to talk to an abusive driver who tailgated me then bumped my car at a light. He was an idiot and I know getting out wasn't the smartest thing to do. Yesterday at the Chebucto Road entrance to the Armdale Rotary this idiot pulls his truck over and gets out to confront a woman in her car. He proceeds to bang on her hood and yell and make a complete jackass out of himself and it got me thinking - with the amount of cameras out there today why would someone want to do that? People get cut off in traffic, people make mistakes, people don't always think first. It's a part of life. If simple mistakes in traffic make you loose your cool to the point of being violent then take a bus. By the time I pulled up he was already getting into his truck to leave and she was already gone.
