How do you deal with people showing road rage, do you suffer from it..

Ever ended up out of the car, or someone at your car ranting?..

Im quite lucky, sort of a calm attitude?..

I tend to leave them go about their bad day, guess we all have a few choice words at other road users though..

Never come to blows well not in my older years, but have mastered a few Arts of self defence so quite confident anyway, however if it did get a little out of hand out there, there’s always Mrs ajn to deal with ??..

I went for a Test Drive last week and it being an unfamiliar vehicle I was being cautious pulling away and whoever was in the car behind me hit the horn within a New York second*.  I had literally only driven it up the road and around the corner – under 200 metres.

(* The shortest possible measurement of time. Standardised as the time between the lights turning green and the taxi behind you beeping his horn.)

Awfully bad manners, Georgie. Find that the best response is to smile beautifully at them, might even wave in friendly fashion. For some reason I don’t understand, this drives them even more bonkers. Did this to a bloke who pulled out from side road in front of me on major road. I had to do emergency stop. Much shaking of fists and shouting by offender. Don’t understand why, I mean I didn’t hit him or shout or anything. Friendly smile and wave so enraged him that he hit his head on window frame. Satisfyingly amusing.

Yeah some people, always amazes me that they seem it’s expectable to start
f???ing and ranting like a brat..

when the saliva starts hitting the the side window, guess that’s a real scary one ??…

I think it should be remembered and excepted there are others on the planet and roads too, stop trying to be so controlling not good for ones health ?…

20 mph speed limits seem to be causing mayhem though

Acceptable even
