Driving To Work

[Chocolate_Thunder]

So I am driving to work the other day and everything is good. No major issues, weather is great. Basically just a good day.

I am headed down the road and there is a mini van driving in front of me which turns on his blinker to make a right hand turn. I slow down as he completes his turn.

As he finishes his turn a car (on the road the van just turned right on to) tries to make a left hand turn in front of me. I slam on the brakes and instantly jump out of the car and cuss this poor guy out. He literally missed me by 6 inches while smoking his cigar and talking on his cell phone, yes at 8:45am. All I could think of at that moment was this idiot was not paying attention at all and could have easily caused an accident.

I get back into my car and proceed down to work.

The funny thing is that I am a very reserved person. It takes a lot for me to go off on someone. I felt so bad after cussing this guy out. I wanted to give him the benefit of the doubt that he just didn't see me.

Has anyone done anything out of character like this before? I just felt like "what the f*%k just happened" I don't do things like this EVER.

I have jumped out of my car a few times quite a few years ago... Now days i'm chill cause if I pop out of my car there will be twubble. I often think of how fun it would be to use my car as a bulldozer.

Glad to see i'm not the only one. I'm also not the only one wishing I was driving something that was built by Caterpillar at times.

Last friday on my way home from work some asshole tried to take cutsies in the freeway on ramp... He sniped the carpool lane then tried to cut in front of me. I had been waiting for about 10 minutes since the line was almost a mile long. Funny he started moving over like I was going to let him in but I pulled up along side him and gave him a 10 second middle finger, mouthed FUCK you then did a throat slit jesture. Wait your turn asshole!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm usually nice but pricks pull that move everyday and cause serious issues with backups and possible rear ending.

Sorry, I couldn't help myself, but that is funny. Your terminology of "cutsies" is funny and accurate.

THIS is one of the main reasons for accidents and thing of such. Some people think they are privileged or entitled to things instead of waiting their turn, like everyone else.

Someone also pointed out to me that when you are in a car and you scream an obscentity to someone, why are you doing this? They can't hear you? Not saying you did it but it is true and makes sense. You mouthed it so you don't qualify.

Yeah it happens sometimes although I never got out of my car. I did slam my horn and call some lady a fucking bitch. Funny thing is I get to my daughter's school to pick her up and guess who pulled up behind me? The fucking bitch! LOL!!

The thing about the exit/onramp is it skirts the fast lane on a 4 lane freeway. So when people stop and try to get in, people coming around the corner at 70 can not see the dutchbags who are stopped trying to cut in. It's dangerous and stupid there is no reason people should be tryin to weeze in, get in line like the rest of us.

I spend a lot of time on the road and shit like this happens to me all the time. I am usually cool about it. I get a little pissed when some ass almost hits me or cuts me off then acts like I am the one at fault. I had some fucker a while back actually follow me all the way up my drive way to my house which is close to 200 feet off the road and wooded. He was tailgating me on the highway and got off on my exit. He tailgated me all the way to my driveway and then followed me in. He was driving very aggressively behind me while swerving and rinding my ass hard. I was calm and collected the whole time until he pulled into my yard. I was out of my truck with the .40 cal and to his door before he could get his truck in park. "Hey man uh I just wanted to tell you that you had a brake light out uh." Stupid little fucker had a couple of girls in the truck with him. I guess he wanted to be a bad ass in front of them. He never saw my gun, but he saw the look in my eye.

I think that would freak me out a little bit.

At times I just wonder what people are thinking.
