Do You Fear Road Rage?

I live in a small town and I don't have to deal with road rage very often. I remember one time when I was stopped at a stop sign and a woman behind me started bumping my car for me to go on. I was about to get on a major highway through Jasper, where I live, and there were cars coming pretty fast and I just couldn't pull out in front of them. I noticed she had a car load of kids and I guess they were getting on her nerves! I've had to deal with parking lot rage I don't know how many times. One time, I went to Walmart one Saturday Night because I needed some bread for toast the next morning. I also bought some other things while I was there as well. I nearly always use the buggy corrals when I'm going back to my car but this particular Saturday Night, all the buggy corrals were packed to the rim and I just didn't know where to put mine. I just put it with some other buggies that were near a corral and I thought I made sure it wouldn't go anywhere. Well, just as I got in my car, this man came to my car to tell me that it had rolled down and hit a car and his wife had to run to catch it. He told me from now on to be more thoughtful and considerate and use the buggy corrals. I could tell he was pretty upset and I just told him "The Lord bless you". He said "Bless you, too, maam". Usually a comment like this will pacify them but I couldn't tell whether it pacified him or not. I had been having a lot of problems with my car at the time and I thought at first he was going to tell me I was about to have a flat or something. I was dreading to hear what he had to tell me. There was no call for him to act this way, though. I was already upset about something else at the time and it just made me feel worse. I know a lot of the road rage these days is due to impatience but people need to realize that other people are having problems, too. Kathy.
