May Day and Road Rage

Hurray...Hurray it's the 1st of May...holiday road rage starts today...

Have you ever wondered how much stress is involved when some uncaring individual invades your vehicles space?

I find my blood pressure reaches the top of the charts. I mean it is my road right?

I pay taxes and should be allowed to vent when someone tries to get in front of me! Right?

Well if you want an early coronary...high blood pressure and the anger of your spouse and children...road rage is the way. Think about it, have you ever cut someone off? Did you feel like an idiot? Then you did it right. If you feel stupid then the driver you cut off shouldn't have to remind you.

To me the ultimate way to say sorry for a mistake driving is with the "wave." Acknowledge that you probably should have a learners license, and the driver you offended won't have to.

Holiday time is a time for driving, so put a grin on your face (despite how you feel) and don't forget to wave when you cut me off. I'm on my way to Just for Laughs...driving...
