Road Rage?......AAAARRRRGGGGG!!

[Dreco]

I'm driving down a country highway (no passing lane)....At the end of the highway, it merges with a 2 lane State Highway. As I'm coming around the bend of the merging lane, I'm accelerating to get up to speed, when i notice SOMEONE IS STOPPED IN THE MIDDLE OF THE MERGING LANE!!!.. I yell out the window " THERE ISN'T A STOP SIGN THERE!!!" If this person can't merge doing 35-55 mph, how are they going to do it from a dead stop!!!??? Of coarse, in today's world, I'm the bad guy with Road Rage, and this person is allowed to drive like an idiot...

Anyone else have any driving experiences they'd like to share???

Hmmm, let's see. Working on my 19th year driving a tractor trailer, covered 39 states and nearly 2 million miles. Got more stories than you could ever imagine! Add a new one every day.:tapemouth :cross-eye

I can't even begin to remember all of them.:dead:

I was on my way to do some work in a little mountain town about 25 miles up I-90 and I hit a wall of solid, bumper to bumper, not moving, traffic. Mind you this stretch of road is 100 miles east of Seattle, it's the middle of nowhere. After about 20 minutes of start, stop, start, stop I finally see that everyone is merging to the right lane. Ok an accident of some sort. Some idiot tried to be a wise guy. I get up to the flares in the road and see a freaking boat sitting in the middle of the freeway. Not some little ski boat or aluminum fishing boat, this baby is a big cabing cruiser. Had to be 25 ft. at least, sitting on it's hull right on the road. The trailer is a tangled mess and the truck that was pulling it is bashed all along one side. I almost wish I had witnessed this one. I bet it was a hoot. Of course as soon as I got past the smokies I popped it back up into fourth and gunned it.

Nothing like driving a Z really fast with the windows down.

I have had a few but the best one was with a suzuki samurai of all things. I am cruising on the interstate at 2am in the morning coming back from a long trip just outside my hometown. A four lane interstate with no cars in sight and this piece of crap comes up behind me and starts flashing his lights like I need to move over. So I just sit there and try not to laugh as he piddles on by.

I let him get a good distance ahead of me then punch it and fly up on his arse and flash my lights at him. I pass him in the other lane swerve in front of him and tap my brake lights. He slammed on his brakes so hard I thought he was going to go off the edge of the bridge. Then I just punched it and took off laughing all the way home from a long trip :devious:

Why do they make the use of cell phones, without using a "hands off" device, Illegal, but no one says anything about the woman puting on make-up, the guy shaving, or the old lady with the dog in her lap??? ( i've even seen a guy with a parrot on his shoulder!!) what goes through these peoples heads, that make them think doing these things, while driving, is a good idea??

Traffic is caused by everyones reaction time being added up!!
