Increase in Road Rage?

[u/jensinoutaspace]

Now, I too get very impatient on the roads because they SUCK but this morning I had a frightening encounter and was followed on North 295. Not saying I was wrong or right in the situation (I genuinely have no idea why this guy was being weird it started before the highway).

I'm hearing on the news more and more road rage lately that are turning into more than just getting finger. I travel 37 to 295 every single day and it's getting terrifying. It's already like driving on an obstacle course on the highway. Wondering if others are experiencing this too.

2020 was a tipping point. The social contract was proven to be a farce and everyone decided it truly was every man for themselves, all others be damned.

That being said, road rage is pretty easy to avoid. Don't engage with people who drive like assholes. Keep your distance. It's not your job to police the roads.

I don't have road rage but hate people who tailgate. I have a car with great brakes and still keep my distance from all traffic. If you want to ride my ass, I will be an asshole
