You're probably just a lot more relaxed driver, will let things go and not notice all the idiots on the road, just doing your driving and moving on...



Manual, why didnt you get these guys license plate #s down in your log book?

I never get mad. I just make it humorous and entertaining for myself and whoever is with me. Nothing dangerous though.

I think Raptor and ManualF150 are both inbred. Possibly had shaking baby syndrome. Orrr they were this annoying when they were children that their parents held them over the balcony like Michael Jackson but actually dropped them on their head. What do you think?

Of course I did...

I had another one in a Honda Civic tonight, tailgating the crap out of me when a guy in a Scab F150 on front of me had a pretty big load in his bad. So this idiot in the Honda was right on my butt, and the idiot tries to pass us. Well, he was sorry for what he tried because a GMC Envoy was barreling down the other side of the road. The guy in the Honda almost crapped his pants, I'm sure. I was following the F150 pretty tightly, so there was no way to get that car in there between us. So while the idiot was in the middle, thinking I was going to let him in, well, his sorry little butt was wrong. He slammed on his brakes, leaving some nice black skid marks and he nearly almost loses control over the POS Honda, and it seemed like he learned his lesson because he quit tailgating me for a very long time.

I didn't write him in my logbook because he almost experienced a 6500 lb SUV crushing his little body into that can.

Years ago I irritated a guy driving a purple AMC Gremlin enough that he pulled a shotgun out and pointed it at me as we were driving. I guess I pushed the irritation button too hard that night. Yes it was a Gremlin! The year was 1975. I was driving a '71 Chevy Nova. I still enjoy irritating people but not when I don't know them and not when I am driving. LOL!

first of all, thumper that pic is hilarious!!!

second of all, I am thinking manual is a bad driver, i have never met someone who gets into these types of situations on a dilay basis like that, i believe it is your fault.

I have only been in 1 road rage incident in my short 3 years of driving, it was a back road where i live and the guy goes to pass me over a hill, granted i am doing 70 already in a 55! so low and behold a car comes overthe hill and he is already next to me, so i slam on the brakes and he does too so the guy coming over the hill stops too, we all sat there in our trucks and looked at each other for a good 5-10 seconds and then the guy coming over the hill chews him out. I didn't really do anything because i am not exactly a fighter by nature, but that day scared the crap out of me! needless to say i let him go in front of me and stayed away for him for the last 5 miles!

Year's ago I had a guy and his girfriend in a Mustang run into the back of a '66 GTO I had when stopped at a light. He just barely tapped the rear, but when I got out to check the damage I saw He still had a "go cup" with a mixed drink that he was still drinking when he was trying to drive. His girlfriend begged me not to deck him right there on his front seat. I did what came into my mind first and pulled his keys out of his ignition and threw them as far as I could in between two old houses in a seedy area of New Orleans and for them to go sober up and look for them. I got in my car laughing my *** off and left them in a cloud of tire smoke! This was in the late 60's and I still think about this every once and awhile.

I can get pretty pissed off when I drive my truck...

On my motorcycle, I never seem to get angry...

Could it be that we feel tougher when we don our suit of armor?


Just a question? How come no one has posted anything where they were at fault and caused roadrage?

A while ago I had a pretty bad anger problem but I got it under control.

Then it came back. For a year I have been yelling and cursing at everyone I see at the road. If they don't get out of my way I throw things at them like water bottles or shine my laser at them. I have even shot at a few, never stopped to see if I hit anything though, no time.

Not really road rage, but, was headed back to school once with a buddy of mine in my old F-150. Doing 75-80 on a 70 MPH highway. Lady is doing 72 in the fast lane. I get up on her, she gets over, then lays on her horn and gives us the finger. I pass, then get to thinking. Tell my buddy to drop his drawers and moon this biatch. So, he's crouching on the passenger seat with his *** hanging out. I drop my speed down and get side by side to her. Roll down the window (tinted), then lay on the horn. The look on her face was priceless.

You think thats cool? No one has given this tool a reaming? WTF?

Charlie, you are a waste of skin, and I desire that you burn in hell. If you have children, I hope they slit your throat at night while you sleep.
