Road Rage at the Park  email this discussion to a friend?

myLot reputation of 98/100. Shar19 (3970)   ranked 2 out of 26,919 in people 3 years ago

We took the kids to the park the other week. We were having a nice day until we went to the picnic area. At the picnic area there was a little playground and some other things for the kids to play on. As I was getting our lunch out, I heard a lady in a big truck cursing at another older lady for taking her parking spot in the parking lot. I didn't see what happened but from what I gather the lady in the truck was waiting for the spot and this elderly lady swung right into the spot. Now I can understand the lady in the truck being upset but this woman starting dropping the F bomb right away and nonstop at this other lady. She got out of the truck and was banging her fist on the woman's car window and told her to move her car out of the spot. All the while she kept cursing at her and threating to fight her. Finally, the elderly lady in the car moved her car and the crazy lady in the truck got her spot. I felt really bad for all of the kids that had to hear and see this nonsense going on. Luckily my kids were playing at the playground and didn't notice this incident. Unfortunately an elderly man sitting at the picnic table next to me was with his grandson and had to explain why the lunatic lady was acting luck a nutcase and cursing like a crazy person. Have you every seen this kind of behavior at a park before?

No, not at a park. I did see improper behavior by a few Surinamese back here though. My mum and I were about to be brought home by a special public transit van ( my mum can't travel with a normal bus through medical problem unfortunetely the bus was late causing more people to wait for the bus including two Surinamese women who had only waited for 10 minutes, we did for over two hours, doing everything in their power to be able to ride with us whilst the bus was full, so they told us to bugger off ( dropping the F bomb) and pulled us almost out of the bus, forcing me to defend myself, fortunately the driver helped us out and we were finally able to hit the road, whilst they hit the road too lol

It doesn't surprise me that more and more people become symphatisants with extreme right wing orientated parties. rolleyes

I haven't seen this but I believe it happens often, I don't think it matters where you are. I always try to be the one to wait for a place but do get irritated when no one gives me a turn. How did you know i was at the park that day? I didn't see you. Who was I , you ask? The little old lady in the car who stole the parking place. Ha!

I am surprised that this would happen. I have had people take my spot before, and I am annoyed, but I usually just blow it off and go look for another spot. For that woman to explode at the elderly woman, drop the f bomb repeatedly, and bang on her window, is not appropriate in any circumstance. That woman needs to learn some anger management. To explode in public like that would be extremely embarassing for me, especially in a park with little children around.


myLot reputation of 98/100. Shar19 (3970)   ranked 2 out of 26,919 in people  3 years ago

I think she definitely could use an anger management class or two.

Thats just wrong. I cant believe she didn't just go on to another spot and maybe just confront the lady, but no she was banging on the window. That rude and I would of called the cops. That lady might of not meant to literally take the spot. Some people are just hateful.


myLot reputation of 98/100. Shar19 (3970)   ranked 2 out of 26,919 in people  3 years ago

I agree. It's very possible that the other lady didn't even know she was waiting for the spot.

Unfortunately, you will see more and more incidents such as that because manners are a thing of the past; and it is not just the young who are discourteous. We live in stressful times with many rude people mixed into the equation, that is the recipe for an explosion. No excuses, just fact.

We gotta get back to the days we tried so hard to leave behind because there is wisdon in our past. We all have to contibute to turning this mess aground or society is sure to get worse.

My heart goes out to all of you, even the lady in the truck. cry

You are so right. I think people need to just take a step back and breathe before they speak.

Wow! Now theres a person who needs a day at the park. I've never witnessed something like that and I would have probably tried to help the little old lady out, of course I would have probably been shot by the battleaxe who wanted the spot since she doesn't sound like a nice person anyway. Oh well, I would have helped anyway, its people like that who cause the rest of us to sit on our hands when something goes wrong. I hope that parking spot stealing witch had a crappy day.


myLot reputation of 98/100. Shar19 (3970)   ranked 2 out of 26,919 in people  3 years ago

I hope she did too. It would serve her right.

This is so dsad. what kind of example are these rude peole setting to the children close by them. all over a parking space? and to use foul language on top of it. children can be scared when they see adults shouting and fioghting like that. I certainly experienced it as a child and found it to be very scary. Shame on them


myLot reputation of 98/100. Shar19 (3970)   ranked 2 out of 26,919 in people  3 years ago

I know what you mean. I felt so sad for the kids who witnessed it.

Wow, while I have seen people get angry over someone swiping a spot in a parking lot, I have never seen that kind of extreme behavior. That's pretty darn scary. Mostly what I have seen is some yelling and beeping the horn and some arm waving. I personally would be afraid to get out of my car, you never know about the person you are telling off, they might be more crazy than you. Too bad the police didn't happen by, they could have had a little anger management session with that woman.

It would have been nice if there was a park ranger or police nearby.

Not at the park..wow..that's bad. I think that people get way to excited over silly things. I don't like to get a wanted parking place taken either but that doesn't mean I am going to jump out in front of a bunch of kids cussing and out of control. Thats terrible.

You're right. Some people have no class. They're just obnoxious bullies.

I am suprised that almost everybody here, have only had this kind of experience once in a while. But that depends on the neighborhood and major things.

In where i live, had it almost everyday, particularly in the streets. I also noticed the same pattern in almost all of asian countries, also in south and latin america.

I think it's majorly an effects from economical status and govermental situation.


myLot reputation of 98/100. Shar19 (3970)   ranked 2 out of 26,919 in people  3 years ago

I think it's just that some people are grumpy and obnoxious all throughout their lives.
