Road rage seems to be too common now

[pRICE cUBE]

Want to cut in without waiting your turn? Go ahead.
Want that parking space? Take it.
Want to speed like crazy and be on my rear end because I cannot go any faster? I'm not reacting.

Nothing is worth the outcome of dealing with people who may not be sound of mind yet licensed to drive.


No shortage of road rage videos on youtube https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=road+rage



This story caught my eye due to the extreme nature of the confrontation. The video is action filled. It concludes with one man head locking another man as the both zoom down the road with head locker hanging off the side of the car. https://www.ajc.com/news/crime--law/gwin...PR1uxxRiO/

Grubbs allegedly punched the teen in the face, took his keys and went back to his car. Wanting his keys back, the teen pursued Grubbs, Channel 2 reported. At that point, Grubbs put him in a headlock and dragged him about half a mile at 40 mph. “As he was dragging me, he said I'm going to kill you,” the victim told Channel 2. The teen didn’t go without a fight, however. He was able to kick Grubbs in the face and hit him with a baseball bat.Grubbs was arrested on charges of robbery, aggravated assault and aggressive driving. He bonded out of jail Wednesday. He was charged in 2016 with simple battery in another road-rage incident and sentenced to 12 months of probation, Channel 2 reported.

These road rage videos are sickening to watch.

So I won't.

The last one I watch showed a guy getting out of a car, walking back to our potential victim's car while putting a round into the chamber of a semi-auto he was barely concealing.

Road Rage has been all too common for a long time now, far too long.

It's just getting more popular to put in YouTube.

There are a lot of videos testifying to the depravity of some human spirits.

I really like the CnC video, above.

I wonder if this is more prevalent in the US than in other countries? We seem to have become a nation that settles frustrations with violence.

I could definitely use one of those. Since I obey the speed limit and keep to the far right lane whenever possible, I get tailgated all the time.

My first message would say "It's a 20 year old Ford Escort. Does it LOOK like it could go any faster?".

My second message would say "If you're gonna ride my butt like that, the least you could do is offer to buy me a drink first".

I've thought about mounting a rear view camera and a bumper sticker that says "Smile, your on video".

Do it. Consider it like all insurance you hope you never need to use.

Hard to believe, but it's much worse in Russia.

After already being charged & being on probation for a similar incident? System = broken.
