What type of attention do you attract with your car?

Jsmith7861 · 09-06-2015, 12:20 PM

Before I left for my deployment, I was driving back to my house, when I got on the interstate. I was behind a couple cars going slowly, so I put on my turn signal to get over to the left and pass (I should mention it was a 5 lane interstate). The truck in front of me does the same, so not wanting to be rude (and not sure he saw me), I slowed up a bit so he could get out as well. After getting over, he continues to drive slowly. So, I put on my signal again and pass him. He then speeds up, cuts behind me and then in the lane to my left, pulls up next to me and starts yelling at me (With windows up at 70 MPH??) and his wife or girlfriend or baby momma or whoever the piss she was flips me the bird. So, I dropped a gear and left them. I really have no clue what I did to warrant that.

You passed him! That's a major infraction on that guys manhood... I've had the same thing happen to me before simply for passing someone in a truck going slowly around some curves.

The guy followed me to a red light and actually got out of his truck and stood at my passenger window screaming... In an intersection, with plenty of other vehicles stopped there.

There are so many folks out there that go crazy with road rage. Why??? I have no idea.

It has been happening for years, as long as I can remember. No matter what sports car I have been driving.
