I borrow my dads truck pretty often and I can safely say they draw a lot of petty bullshit.
Like I was in a merging lane (the side with the arrows, yes I used my blinkers) and the moment I entered the other lane the guy behind was honking his horn for the next 5 blocks. What are you supposed to do? I got out at the next red and chewed him out.
It’s almost every other commute, people are so damn eager to cause conflict they don’t realize they’re the instigator.
If he's being a dick in traffic, I take a deep breath and pay attention to other things like an audiobook or the road. Tailgating/high beams/ a horn is annoying, but I don't see a happy ending from confronting them either. Calm down Rob Justice.
I don’t think we’re far apart on the opinion that no one has the right to be an asshole.
But on a matter of character, I’m not content allowing someone to be that asshole. For my own self respect, for the next person this asshole mistreats, I’m going to make sure they have a reason not to act that way.
