So do I. I'll also force them off the road, block them from passing. Even crash through a gate or two.

Oh, wait, that's NFS: Most Wanted...... oops.

While he agreed to pay, he has not done so yet. I'm about to press charges. It's a felony in FL when damage is over $1K.

When did this happen ?
That would have been great if you blasted his [censored]. I would of unlocked my door and let him enter my car and start swinging. Then I would have unloaded my Glock at point blank range.

Heck yeah man! Same here! And in Texas if you have a chl,you'd be within your legal rights to end his life

Gotta love Texas


I don't look for trouble, but if some a-hole jerk thinks he has the right to open my door and start throwing punches then I have no other choice to unload my Glock.
Now if I got out of my car it would be a much different story.

Just before I executed him, I would have said... "Say hello to my little friend"
 
Yikes! Note to self; don't cut other vehicles off, period. Some of them have serious issues and this is not the way I want to leave the mortal plane. Though i have trouble doing so, I have to keep telling myself that driving is a skill. VERY few people are good at it.

Couple weeks ago at the Stuart airshow. The guy has no idea how lucky he was that my window did not break. He was pounding on it. I had made my mind up that if he gained entry by violence, he was "in trouble".

But, on a philosophical note, I don't ever want to shoot anybody. Dealing with the injury or death of another person is something I'd have an exceedingly difficult time with. I don't need that. I'm not out to prove how tough I am (I'm not tough at all) I keep a cool head, and I'm satisfied to fold my arms and let a situation play itself out, without any input from me.

I'd rather deal with it in the courts "after the fact".
 
NOBODY cuts me off in my 4x4 dually with bumper replacements. I had one guy think about doing that and ended up going right into the ditch blowing 2 tires... he was affraid I was going to hit him..and I was.. I NEVER let off the gas and there was a difference of 30mph.. I would have played monster truck... I have more riffles and shottys than some gun shops so if it came to that point....
The car I carry my 18.5" shoty but usually just ignore them

You have that childish attitude, and yet in this post

you whine and moan about your inability to get along with everyone in your town. Maybe it's time you do some serious soul searching.

Seriously. Its just sad, and comments like that not only will be incriminating if something were to happen, but also make me question the mental soundness, which IIRC is a question on the Federal firearms questionnaire.

Wow.
 
I just chuckle at their incompetence and move on as I know it will catch up to them eventually. Life is too short to worry about exacting vengeance over driving...if everyone acted that way...well if you have seen vids on Youtube about Russian drivers...that is where we'd be...
 
Timely subject. The other day, my wife apparently had a run-in with a road-rager. She said she changed lanes and suddenly a black car was behind her. She admits she probably cut him off, since she drives a Vibe and worries about the blind spots. That was in hindsight, though. At the time she had no idea what was happening.

The car got up next to her, wouldn't pass, and started swinging into her lane as if to crowd her out of it. She looked over at him and saw he was obviously enraged. This kept up for most of her commute, on 2 and 4 lane city streets with speed limits of 35 or less. He finally let up and passed her when she slowed for a parked police car.

So, even without a shotgun, a rifle, or a 4-wheel drive, a well-dressed man in his fifties, driving a worn-out Volvoish car, managed to scare a small woman so much that she was still stressed about it that night. If it was you, be proud to know that you probably affected her driving for the worse, not the better.
 
I've had no experiences with road rage in the eight years since I left the US. I'm sure it happens here but nobody is going to pull out a gun.

One way to stop people from cutting you off is to buy a well maintained Decommissioned Ford P-71 Police Interceptor,Dodge Charger or even a Impala with a Go Rhino Push Bar,Spotlamp and Tint.

My friends wife was a nervous wreck trying to get onto I-95 and the 826 everyday as no one wanted to let her in with her Sonata..Now she drives a 08 Black and White P-71 Ford Police Interceptor..It was a supervisor car..Now everyone makes room for her to get onto the highway and nobody cuts her off anymore..In fact people actually signal when they change lanes in front of her and give her plenty of room in front and behind her.
 
LOL CROWNVIC4LIFE. You reminded me of my vacation in Reno last year. My rental was a black Crown Vic and I had a lot of fun on the road with it. People made sure to get out of my way for some reason. I'd pulled off the road at one point to get some pictures, and when I got back on, people in front of me started hitting the brakes. I guess they figured I was after one of them or something...

That's powerful incentive there!

Overcompensation.
 
I whip out my sweet martial arts moves (from the waist up of course). People tend to not want to mess with someone who's karate chopping his own visors and rearview mirror. Combine this with visible screaming and saucer shaped eyes and you've got a winning combo.
