Saw a guy just peace out right through a stale red light yesterday. He realized halfway through, came almost to a stop in the middle of the intersection, and then gunned it. How do these people get licenses?

I was driving in the right most lane of 3 lanes a normal following distance from the car in front of me at about 5 under due to traffic conditions. All the other cars going around doing same speed. Someone in a lifted Ram 2500 starts tailgating me and after like 30 seconds starts flashing their high beams at me. After a while they angrily pass me (swerving between lanes without signaling). What ... what did you expect me to do?

Nothing, you're just the unfortunate that happened to be nearby when he blew a gasket.

It was just a Hyundai Santa Fe too, not a stereotypical BMW or Merc driver. But I'll keep that in mind next time so hopefully the rear end in a top hat doesn't cause any wrecks.

I honked at someone yesterday for deciding to slow down to a stop and turn right from the middle lane at an intersection with a green light and a right-turn only lane immediately beside us. The intersection before this I was also behind them, and we were both turning right. I entered the right-turn only lane, they turned from the middle lane. Both times they had their signal on well in advance, both times they turned right from the middle lane. I feel no shame in the "you're a dipshit" honk.

Driving amongst taxis in Manhattan, I noticed the drivers all had different ways of honking the horn. It was like echolocation with a variable vernacular of urgency. It was like listening to a beautiful language made from annoying noise. Outside of the city, I hate horns.

My dad's truck blew a transmission line and we were getting a flatbed from AAA. As the flatbed is backing up to the truck, some crazy bitch swings in behind the truck as it is backing up about a foot from the back of the flatbed. I yelled both to warn the truck driver, who thankfully stopped without crunching the A-pillar of the car, and at the sheer idiocy of the car driver. She clears the truck, screeches to a halt in the parking lot, and then proceeds to yell at me out the window "What the gently caress is your problem dude, is that how you talk to a lady?!" "I don't see any loving ladies you crazy bitch" The best part was after she got out of the car, she continued to yell at me and took a couple steps towards me with raised fists like she was going to kick my rear end. I yelled "C'mon, you wanna have a go?" with my arms out, at which point she reconsidered and went into the cafe where my dad and I'd just had breakfast to get her sandwich. Yelled at me some more on the way to her car, just flipped her the finger and told her to get the gently caress on. loving crazy people. Don't get all hoity-toity when you get called out for doing something incredibly stupid.

There's a dog-bone double roundabout on my way to where I was going, and some idiot stopped completely in the circle where the people coming off the highway enter. I held my horn down the entire time until he decided to start moving again. How the gently caress do people mess up roundabouts so badly?

An idiot in a wrx went too fast up the street behind my house in the wet. Their car is currently resting against the fence of a house with a decent amount of damage after taking out the garden bed as well. No photos as I heard it and then had to leave shortly after.

Had to go run some errands a little bit ago. As I'm going down the road, some jackwagon pulls a no signal left turn across in front of me. Whatever, no harm no foul. He then continues in a full circle and nearly T-bones me in an effort to finish his middle of the intersection unsignaled, ill-advised U-Turn with someone present in the space he needed open to complete it successfully, so I had to come to a full stop so we didn't collide because he was not going to to miss finishing this right here, right now and had readjusted course to come out ahead of me. He then, of course, went 5 under for the next two miles in a no-passing zone.

Coming home from work today I was in the left (inside lane) of two left turn lanes. Guy on my right (outside lane) made a U-turn in front of me like I wasn't even there. We were 4th or 5th in line at the light too, I have no idea what he was thinking. Me in the red, dumbass in the green:

The only reason to get one, and the EV is far superior to the 3cyl slug, is if your business has you making service calls in a city where the ability to park anywhere is an asset.

There are some times where the person directly in front of you clearly isn't causing the problem, but a horn is still necessary to get the message across to the person who is causing the problem and the second place won't do it themselves.
