How about a realistic definition for road rage???
After all, is it really road rage when the other car cuts you off and you get a bit irritated? Is it really road rage when the car passing you cuts in so short that you have to hit the brake and then blow the horn? Is it really road rage when the road hog in front of you is going half the speed limit and you are late to work because of it?
So, if another driver gets you a bit irritated by their erratic, rude, or stupid actions, and you either pass, blow the horn, or otherwise vent, you are now the guilty party???
EVERYBODY speeds. If I drive the speed limit, I usually would end up with a line of cars honking at me and shaking their fists to speed up. Even worse on the interstate. And, nearly everybody will clip the yellow light to make their left turn or to get past the doofus that is sleeping (or texting) at the light.

As I see it, road rage is when a driver gets angry to the point of taking retaliatory action against another driver. Speeding and weaving in and out of traffic may be AGRESSIVE, but is NOT road rage. It is just plain stupidity and lousy driving. There are literally millions of bad drivers out there that should never have been licensed in the first place. At the same time, there never seem to be enough traffic cops to get some of them off the road. Instead, the traffic cops are hiding behind billboards playing with their electronic toys and looking for money rather than safety. Who cares if somebody goes 5 mph over the speed limit on the interstate? While the lunatic that is cutting people off gets away scot-free. The one that is hogging the left lane at 10 under the speed limit is the one that should really get the ticket.

The saga starts with the following message: Hey guys I have a decision to make. I know what you all will probably suggest and it will probably agree with me way down inside, but here it is. I have a picture blown up and framed in my "tractor room" of a Farmall M. It was my Grandpa's tractor, of which whom I never got to meet. He froze to death getting this tractor out of the barn to pull a truck out of the ditch before I was born. Anyway my dad and aunt had to sell it at the auction, ... [Read Article]
