Why are people so full of road rage these days?

I am so tired of people and their road rage!!!! I was turning onto my street the other day and apparently inconvenienced the young woman behind me by doing so. She gave me the bird, blew her horn, and got right on my bumper. What is with people driving these days that you can't even turn without someone getting impatient with you!!!!? Anyone have any good road rage stories?

I am probably the ideal road rage driver, being 17 and male. Altho I really do not plan on doing so. I want my no claims and can't afford to be wasting petrol. So I have a Citroen ax 955cc. Altho some people my age really do this as well, there mad.

I think people your age drive that way to show off. They think they are being cool. I get angry when people are on their cell phones and not paying attention at all! When a person endangers my family because of their roadrage, I get very upset! People are in such a hurry anymore, it's ridiculous.

Well i do have to say that i don't like people turning in front of me and going slower than what i was doing, that really bugs me. Maybe i was driving fast to bring someone to the hospital. So last Friday night i was rushing across town to get to my boyfriend to bring him to the hospital because he had a gash in his head and had to get stitches and someone turned in front of me and were going slower than i was and i had to slam om my brakes so people like that do annoy me a lot. Today i was coming home from my mom's work and i was right down the street from my house maybe a mile down the road and this guy turned right in front of me and didn't even want to do the speed limit and now that is bad when there not even doing the speed limit and that just annoys me to. I can't stand the people on the road that are driving and they look like they should be in a hospital bed they are so old. To old to be driving is a bad thing on the road and they cause accidents.

Maybe you need to slow down??? If that many people are aggravating you, maybe it's not them...haha! I have found in my 16 years of driving, that every time I get stuck behind someone going very slow, there is a reason for it. I have avoided many speeding tickets thanks to people pulling out in front of me and going slow...think of it as a blessing in disguise!
