I'll start:
>be me
>at left turning light near mall stroad
>light turns green
>Zoomer Mexican in rice rocket in front of me doesn't move
>honk, nothing happens
>hold down the horn and nothing happens, so I just drive around him before I miss the light
>he suddenly gets really mad
>he drives right next to me in the left lane at the same speed yelling at me.
>Start thinking I might have to pull over and fight him
>he yells something like "learn to drive faggot" and speeds off.
I have no idea why he was mad.

Not so much road rage. When I was a teenager I had an old Yamaha tw200 (dirt bike). I was washing it in the front yard and some boomer Karen pulled up and said "you got away with it this time but I know where you live" and drive off. I have no idea to this day what she was talking.

>>28513594 (OP)
Had boomer in subaru stop his car in the road and get out and say "going 5 miles over the speed limit is speeding". So I just drove over sidewalk to get around him lol.

Some granny got real mad when I had issues parallel parking into a tight spot. She threatened to call the cops, took pictures of the license plate with a flip phone in her hands because I supposedly rammed the tree (I didnt touch it). Her screaming didnt help with the parking and I wasnt sure if the psycho would key my paint so I basically just drove a few streets down to park. Idk what her problem was. The cops never came so I think theyre used to her being a menace.

I tail gated a Jeet taxi driver for no reason and at light he screamed at the top of his lungs: "QUIT RIDING MY ASS YOU MOTHER FUCKER".

LOL.

One time when I was parking some guy came out of his house and started writing down my license and was like "you just took a piss on my lawn I saw you". Some people are just crazy. I also moved my car just in case he keyed it.

Some old people are legitimately schizophrenic about the smallest things. Generally people are quite accomodating on the road, especially if you wave at them or express an excuse me hand sign.

>>28513628
Fucking millennial retard who can't handle someone going less than 30mph in a 25mph zone. kill yourself millennial subhuman.

>two lane road, one in each direction
>parked semi in my lane
>tried to go around the semi when it was clear
>some oncoming traffic had to stop for me though
>one person got angry and yelled through the window
yes its my fault but ultimately why is there a parked semi in the middle of the road... at some point i have to go around

>>28513764
Given that the obstacle is in your lane you have to give incoming traffic priority and it is also your responsibility to only go when the incoming traffic is clear. Those are just the rules, and sadly some people on the road cannot sympathize with your situation because you inconvenienced them for 10 seconds. Just wave or make a my bad hand gesture and hope for the best.

I got a cyclist angry once because. despite a protected bike lane being right beside him, he decided to cycle on the narrow roadway instead. I drove up closer to him to to kinda hint to get in his containment lane. He stopped, started banging on my car window, and I just drove off like nothing happened. It was funny seeing him get angrier because I wasn't reacting to him freaking out.

I once got complimented for my parallel parking by a hotel valet guy in a fancy suit. I worry about him being a valet guy.

>guy does dumb shit
>apply brakes, swear
>continue driving

When I was young and riding with my family, an asshole on the highway was switching lanes with us often iirc. Being a nuisance. My father was driving and is hot headed. The guy playing around with him was in a truck. We got about 7 miles off the highway towards our home. The truck driver apprently flicked his lit cigarette into the driver seat, though I never saw it. The guy sped away and my father quickly chased. We were up to 60 in a 30 mph zone. My mother was beggin him to stop nad leave it be. We got to a stop sign where he was in line to go. My father got out of the car yelling and walked over and punched a nice size dent in the guy's bed. He turned his truck around and drove back the other way. My father got back in the car but didn't pursue. He cor my mother called the cops and the police stated they would get a report supposedly. But also that they would arrest both of them for both of them road raging. Can't recall as it was 20+ years ago. He apparently got into another incident years later, though if road rage was the cause, I can't say.

I've never gotten that angry. Most I've done is yell in my car at the Indian iirc in front of me who stopped at a green light, waited for it to turn red, then proceed at the next green light to turn.

Viagra stop working?

That's not even speeding. Kill yourself for crying about it.

>zoomer
Meh he was probably on his phone and you honking made him lose his mobile "game". People weren't joking when they said most zoomers have phone addiction. Out of all the zoomies at my job I'm the only one left standing and each new zoomer they hire barely lasts a month before they get fired for using their phone too much.

never road raged since I couldn’t care less about what others do even if they inconvenience me. i’m not putting my life in danger because some developmentally challenged moron made a mistake or is trying to escalate with me.
should they ever damage my property, insurance will take care of it and they’ll be sure to make get their pound of flesh from the person. you win by doing nothing in any of these scenarios. you will always lose if you stoop down to their level.

>>28514010
Faggot cyclists. They bitch for tax payer money to grant them a protected lane then refuse to use it the moment they realize it keeps them from being able to yell at cars.

I once used the radio antenna I had just removed to whip the shit out of some cyclist casually cruising down the middle of a two way street. Gave him one kuntakinte would have flinched over.

2028 mandates with AI speed limiters will drive you to suicide.
And ill laugh about it.

Good luck. I will just machine new engines as I need them for my mid engine classic.

>be me, in control of my life
>never road rage
I drive a work van. People hate work vans. The times I've been raged at I give a concerned look and ask them if they're okay. If you're going into fight or flight over traffic you got bigger problems than getting passed by a ford transit.

I was stuck in heavy traffic when I noticed a Fire Truck with lights and sirens coming up from behind. Vehicles were mounting the curb in both directions so emergency vehicles could go up the middle. The Turban wearing guy in front of me totally froze up (he was prob looking for his new driver manual on what to do). After honking for what seemed like forever, the Firetruck got right on his ass and then bumped him forward once then a second time out into the intersection then left.

I'd like to have heard the call to his insurance (as if he had any).

>highway
>some bimmer and audiretard being regular retards, flashing each other and shit
>suddenly infront of them a truck starts to overtake another truck
>trucker starts swearing around, retaerds breaking like crazy, truck being overtaken almost hits another truck
>it's now 4 retards road raging at each other
>slow down and make as much space as possible while hoping they kill each other

Anyway, everyone surivived and they ended up in newspaper. Wish i had a dashcam.

Sitting at yellow to turn left in a snowstorm, foot of snow & ice on the ground. Retard behind me starts blaring his horn to go even though there is a constant stream of traffic coming the other way. Finally turn & he turns on the red and follows me for like ten minutes blowing on his horn then passes me on a narrow residential road nearly killing both of us cause there was an oncoming car he didn't fucking see through the snow

>>28513617
When i was like 13 i was riding my manco mini bike around the neighborhood around 630am there were no cars on the road. Eventually some asshole comes up from behind and starts riding my ass in his car and follows me for a couple blocks even though i pulled off to the side so he could pass. He pulls up next to me and yells I've been following you and i can't tell what you're doing you're not signaling you have no brake lights and I'm a cop if i was on duty i would bust your ass! Then drove off. Other than him there was nobody around just let kids have fun god damn

>>28513628
I was way back in line at a red light and some retard rode up on the curb to get around me to get in the left turn lane to zoom up to the red and wait. Then the straight turned green his didn't

>>28515336
Same happened to me except my dad was driving and we were blocked in in a turn lane at a red. He didn't realize with a fire truck blasting every horn and siren it had that you can run the red to make way. The guy had to get on his loudspeaker and tell at him to move out of the way before he did anything.
He also once caught air in a rental mini van in Spain with all of us in back because he was pissed off and didn't slow down.
Luckily he doesn't drive anymore. The last time he did he blacked out at a red light because of his heart condition, drifted through the intersection, knocked over a traffic light, came to and drive off without realizing it. Didn't know anything had even happened until the police came to his door with traffic camera footage of what happened.

>>28516232
Caught air on a speed bump*. It was one of those random ones on a 35 mph highway to force people to not speed

>>28513703
That's a pretty reasonable response.

One time I was at Walmart in my G20 van with my entire family, like, five people, I was looking to park and some guy had his reverse lights on at the automotive section so I drove on by to get out of his way so he could leave, yeah?
I make it to the other end of the parking lot and we start looking for a spot at the grocery entrance, and then the dude pulls up next to me in his car, and starts yelling at me about I guess not letting him out of his parking spot or something?
Grandma was confused, I was confused, and I just kind of shrugged at him and drove off because I knew Mom would probably give him an earful if he decided he really wanted to get into an argument.

There was also another time at the same Walmart where I was parking and I happened to look to one side and this black woman was having like a full mental breakdown in her car like giving me the finger and screaming, but of course I couldn't hear any of it because neither of us had our windows down, and she just drove off.
I don't even know if that one was directed to me or what, it was weird.

But actual road rage incidents on the open road? Nothing. I drive too safe to really get into any messes like that I suppose.

>>28513594 (OP)
A big trugh almost wiped out trying to outdo me accelerating me past a certain intersection. I wasn't thinking about it much, but took a certain pleasure in of his tires smoking in y rear view mirrorss.. the sight of him smoking

>>28513737
when my dad gets mad, he gets REALLY mad. one day went into an apoplectic fit when someone partially blocked our driveway. i think it was because he's always had beef with the construction next door, the developer tried to screw us over years ago but we saw right through his bullshit. anyway we also had some problems with contractors kinda blocking our driveway, we could still get out but they were still blocking it.
but instead of asking them nicely to not do that, he always got into shouting matches first thing and generally just acted like an elderly crybaby. in one particular incident the contractor apparently looked ready to knock him out lol.
this time though when he went into almost tard-like rage, he was smacking and hitting every body panel of the ute and kept trying to fiddle with the locked toolbox in the back, when he couldn't do anything to that he was desperately looking for something, anything loose on the vehicle to fuck with. eventually the neighbours across the street heard the commotion and wondered what was going on and when my dad saw them he started (trying) to go ape shit on the ute again. i told him to just get back inside and i'd talk to them but holy shit the look in his eyes looked like he wanted to tear them apart. he was yelling at them so hard he couldn't even form words properly and the neighbours thought he was gonna have a heart attack lmfao.
all of this over slightly blocking our driveway. he didn't even remember that the wife used to be a customer when my parents had their own little computer repair business, they were completely confused as to why he was so furious but everything made a lot more sense to them when i told them what he was like. thankfully though, he didn't actually do any real damage since he's an old cunt now.

>be me
>at an intersection on my street
>I have a stop sign, intersecting traffic doesn't
>waiting to turn left
>some brainlet slowly drives up to the intersection
>stops to let me out despite the fact there is no traffic and he has no reason to stop
>this makes me so mad I take his stupid ass offer and am screaming in anger to myself in the car
>don't get into a fight or leave my car, just drive to work normally but angry
I really hate when people don't follow the right-of-way, the whole situation would be resolved faster if numbnuts wasn't being polite for no reason. I still don't even really know why I got so angry, but I think I woke up on the wrong side of the bed that morning. Rest of my day was actually very calm IIRC, maybe getting mad in the morning is the strategy to having a good day.
