Ultra-aggressive drivers are ticking time bombs
 
Honking, fist-shaking, screaming, obnoxious drivers: the symptoms of road rage.

Rush hour in Metro Vancouver can lead to some angry drivers, and Burnaby resident Ella Ho says she realized this when another driver rammed her car over the centre line on Broadway and into the oncoming lane in a rare case of extreme road rage.

other driver is lucky that she aint some gangster who woulda pulled out a gun and shot him.

hal0g0dv2 03-30-2009 09:36 PM

we all just need to calm down

BNR32_Coupe 03-30-2009 10:15 PM

i get pretty angry. i just give the driver an expressionless "you dumbass" look when i get the chance. they know they're idiots

today, i had 5 drivers blocking the fast lane. they all looked like somebody's mother, and it could be my mom on the road doing that shit too, so i don't go all psycho, i just give them that look

LemonH2O 03-30-2009 11:23 PM

Blocking the left lane on the highway going 10k below speed limit is an everyday occurance.

Now Americans know how it works, I would say 95% know to gtfo of the passing lane when you come up behind them.

CanadaGoose 03-31-2009 01:00 AM

I tailgate like a mofo lol and hang my car out into the shoulder so they can see me clearly till they move the EFF over

if you're not using the fast lane properly, or going to be pressuring the driver in front of you to gtfo, then you do not belong in the fast lane either!!! :rant

AzNightmare 03-31-2009 02:59 AM

People don't get a chance to tailgate me often, because I usually speed up once I notice someone's tailing me. And I don't ease up on the pedal until I start seeing some distance...
But that's me anyway...

that part i totally fucking give up already. Not one single BC drivers get the SLOW MOFO GTFO concept, i tell u...NONE. maybe one out of 100, and thats about it. Now i just high beam them, speed up from slow lane than cut them off at night time, watever. Mofos dont get it at night, slow lane has no car, fast lane has no car..yet its a traditional now for BC driver to hog in the fast lane thinking they are the king.,

Funny, but useless.

The people that are clogging the left lane often don't check their mirrors.

Euro7r 03-31-2009 11:41 AM

I wouldn't necessarily agree to that statement, honking, screaming = road rage.

A lot of people don't even know they're driving like a retard, honking at them is to get them aware. Some people cut me off and still drive like they didn't do anything wrong. WTF.

If your cutting people off and drive recklessly ignoring other cars, then I would agree it's a dangerous thing.

JSALES 03-31-2009 12:04 PM

what i do if someone cuts me off is i would give them the middle finger as i pass by them

quasi 03-31-2009 12:17 PM

Thing is if someone cuts you off and waves it's usually all good and any anger is instantly gone. The ultimate is the guy who cuts you off, you give him a what the fuck look and he gives you the finger.

What if the person you gave the finger to saved an entire school of innocent children, donated his kidneys, a lung, and part of his liver, and only had 30 minutes left to live. Would you feel good about it? What if the person you gave the finger to was your mother in-law, or own mother?

Let's all stop posting for just a minute, and think about these what-if's.

Yeah, mistakes usually happen but when its acknowledged and the party at wrong is apologetic, it's usually no big deal.

However, road rage really isn't a problem. It's people who can't drive IS.

***People who think the slow lane and the fast lane are the same thing
***People who don't understand the concept of merge
***People who don't know how to lane change

And what's worse are these are the kind of drivers that think they're good and that all anger is unwarranted. Wrong, they deserve all they hate they can get.

How about you stop posting.

Your "what ifs" are retarded and their plausibilities are far more scarce than finding wisdom on a Zhangfei thread. The concept behind "bad driving" isn't rocket science. Unless you're one of those that think rocket science is a scientist who finds things out about space. :rolleyes:

Heh, might just be my own ego, I'm not used of driving slower than traffic. On some days when I just want to take it easy and cruise at 50-60, I begin to cringe whenever people pass me, but I have to remember I'm saving gas by driving slower... lol

Yup, I think the real reason is that people don't notice their surroundings because they are so focused on just staring through the windshield. Unless you start honking, they probably won't notice you.

What if it was an old man with Veteran plates. I would still say, "so what?" If he was driving recklessly, it doesn't matter who he is or what he has done in his life. He should gtfo the road.
