James Higgins @JamesHxstatic (29410) • Eugene, Oregon 19 May 24

Yes, she will fly the 350 miles (563K) to Boise, Idaho to visit her sister. Because there is no direct flight from our local airport, I will take the two hour drive Tuesday morning to Portland so she can get there without flying...

Thoughts On Driving and Anger

J.N.R Dutton @jnrdutton (3452) • United States 3 Dec 23

Just like a person shouldn't drive drunk, I don't think they should drive angry either. Intense anger has a tendency to impair rational faculties (at least temporarily) and that of course is dangerous. I think if a person gets...

I Just Laughed

Jim Bauer @porwest (112876) • United States 16 Feb 23

People can be interesting. I mean, don't get me wrong, we all get a bit unnerved or irritated by other drivers on the road. People sometimes do stupid things. Sometimes it is just because they are stupid, and other times it is...

Jabo @jaboUK (64346) • United Kingdom 30 Jan 18

While driving along yesterday a guy 'cut me up' on the way, I slammed on my brake, he'd made my heart quake, as I had the clear right of way. I blasted my horn, but oh gee, he got mad, as mad as can be, then my ears he abused and...

I'm a strong believer that all traffic is caused by one person not paying attention or doing something that they shouldn't. I've been to many cities and it's all the same...some worse then others. But it's all clear and then comes...

Michelle @infatuatedbby (94909) • United States 20 Dec 16

WHY? The sign clearly says "NO TURN ON RED". The sign is there for a reason as it's unsafe to turn right because: 1. It's a main road where the speed limit is faster 2. There is a hidden curve/blind spot so you can't see oncoming...

Have You Ever Been a Victim of Road Rage?

Steve West @zebra2222 (5268) • United States 4 Nov 16

Road rage can be very frightening. The honking of the horn. The mad face that looks at you. The finger that sends the message, "Up yours." It can lead to weaving of lanes, tailgating, or worse. I've run across some bad...
