Are you an angry driver?

[Gandalf]

I am a very angry driver. I took the car out for a spin and drove up to Seoul and I started to monitor my outbursts and the number of times I shouted 'fucking cunt' must have been in the dozens. I also gave the middle finger to at least 8 people for engaging in stupid and risky methods of overtaking. People are quite disgusting and it really exasperates me. I drive as I expect others to drive in return and so am good. I indicate and I am careful. I follow the rules as others should too, but so many of them just don't give a hoot.

One thing I really love though are service stations. I stopped at about 3. The bathrooms are really clean, the coffee is cheap and they even have historical information talking about the area. I really enjoyed stopping off having small conversations with the workers.

Koreans are generally very nice people, but they become total knobs when they get behind the wheel. It really pisses me off. People need better manners and to realise that the road is not 'me, me, me', but a community of people.

[Gandalf]

People who don't indicate are the worst. At least let your fellow drivers know what your intentions are. And people who don't let you out when you are politely indicating.

I've started just putting my window down, putting my head out and raising my hand and the sight of a white face is usually enough to make people remember their manners a little and let me in.

I have also learnt a lesson too. Never drive around Seoul. It is a serious headfuck.

[Ghost]

Nope, not an angry driver.

When you learn to drive in a country where every one carries a gun, you learn to remain calm.

Do you mean using your blinker?

I'm a lunatic. Regular chase people amongst other things. About 3 years ago a lorry driver almost killed me on the m1, so I gave him the wanker signs and called him a cunt. He came right up to my bumper and was signalling for me to pullover, so I thought fuck it, why not! We both pulled over and got out and he started to walk over to me, just as he got close I dropped him and then put my foot on his throat. Probably need to calm down a but lol

I've been known to pop off once in awhile. More so to slow fuckers in the left lane, people who make right hand turns into life long endevors and kooks driving in the rain like the car was rigged with explosives and using the hazard lights. Driving is a form of art with the auto a brush and the highway my canvas. Not angry but a critical driver, yes.

[boozeboxer]

I dislike traffic greatly. I live in a very rural place and would not move for anything.

I get angry whenever I have to stop for any reason. I also get angry whenever people ride my bumper but refuse to pass whenever they could clearly do so.

So your the elder actually doing the speed limit in the left ?

I rarely speed. I allow myself enough time to get places. I often am pulling a trailer as well.

Oh yeah, I yell and flip people off all the time. I live in bumfuck, and I used to be a laid back driver, until the job I had before my current job, I used to have to drive to the outskirts of downtown Cleveland, and it is nothing but maniac assholes that drive the interstates heading that way. So in order to survive with the assholes, you had to learn to drive like an asshole, and unfortunately it stuck. Luckily now, my drive to work is only 20 minutes, and all back roads, but if I get stuck behind someone driving 10 miles under the speed limit, you bet I'm driving on their ass yelling at them. Not proud of it by any means, but I've just become such an impatient driver, and have absolutely no tolerance for slow drivers, or fuckers who pull right out in front of you when they see you coming fast.

But I'm nothing compared to Legion. OMG, if I'm on the phone with him while he is driving, I am usually lmao listening to him scream at other drivers. The lines that he comes up with are priceless.

I try and balance out frustration with cynical humor. Its easier on your stress levels.

Yes, it isn't good to be getting too stressed and I do get stressed. I was thinking to myself yesterday 'what am I doing in this country with these lunatics?'. However, I realised that people are pretty stupid the world over so if it was any alternative it would just be different coloured people who speak my language.

80% of all people are somewhat retarded and it is something I am just going to have to accept.

Great story BTW, BigH. If drivers are going to be dicks I just want them to apologise and show respect. There was one instance yesterday where I went into the wrong lane (Seoul is a mess), I tried to get back out and raised my arm as an apology to the person behind who had to take the time to let me back in. If everyone just paid each other a little respect the roads would be just fine. I don't mind someone making the odd mistake, but show consideration to your fellow drivers. People are such selfish pricks and to a degree my socialist values are only ever going to be wasted on animals like this.

One thing I hate more than anything is letting someone in and they just don't acknowledge.

Beep, mouth thankyou for them. beep beep beeep as we shuffle along they deserve this lesson.

Totally, just rudeness to not acknowledge a generous act of kindness. Also bus drivers are mental. They don't look and throw their vehicles around like toys. A history of mental illness is a prerequisite of becoming a bus driver.

[Nameless]

Not at all. Even when I almost get killed by dumb drivers ambitions/moves, I remain as zen as it can be, perhaps a little burst but that's it and if I start to feel some anger for some reasons, I simply kick on some classical music and I am back to Mr Buddha style with a smile.
