Actually, that very thing happened. We were at a stoplight, and felt a "bump!" The car behind us had bumped us, very gently, and I could see the driver in the rearview mirror. She had her hands over her face peeking out between her fingers, and mouthed "sorry" at us. Ratbastid and I laughed, waved at her, and drove off when the light turned green. If she hadn't looked sorry, we probably would have scowled about it, but I wouldn't have gotten out of the car and ranted and raved. Wouldn't even have gotten out of the car at all - it was a gentle tap, couldn't have done any damage to speak of, no big deal and not worth ruining my day or hers. So perhaps that sheds some light on why I'm having such a hard time understanding why some people get very upset about it.
