I'm married to a guy who thinks it's his civic duty to "teach that asshole a lesson". If they're too slow off the light, he'll tailgate as if trying to drive through them. If they stick their nose out a bit too far into the road, he'll move like he's about to hit them. If they don't do what they "should", he yells-of course, we in the car with him are the only ones who can hear him....yet, he won't use his horn because it "won't make them move". Yea, yelling works....
Every night, he has a story about some "asshole driver", not realizing that he can be one too just by his holier than thou attitude on the road.
I whiteknuckle it every time I get in the car......
Years ago, I remember watching a video in school about this old guy, just driving along at his leisurely pace and never getting into an accident, but causing them as he went. Being a "safe" driver doesn't mean you're a safe driver.
