Road Rage

Had to deal with road rage on our bike ride today. Some pickup truck was behind us and beeped his horn. The side of the road was very uneven, we didn't want to go into the ditch, and so we kept the lane, single file. He had plenty of room to pass us in the other lane if he wanted, with good visibility and nothing coming. But no, he kept his hand on the horn for another 2-300 meters. We totally ignored him until we turned as planned, down a road and he speeded past. Ignoring him was the only thing to do, but that probably wound him up. Oh well. At least he didn't drive into us.

A 70s #TV star, #musician and #actor from #London has suffered life-changing #injuries following a #roadrage attack in #Beckton #EastLondon

#MetPol have been unable to find the attacker due to lack of evidence (that area isn't so well covered by CCTV) - which worryingly means anyone driving there is at the mercy of any angry man who chooses to use #violence

Still thinking about the maniac who was flashing his Dodge Ram's high beams at me, for the offense of stopping at a red light. The audacity of me, I know.

Like him, I was preparing to turn right, and I don't live in Montreal so it's legal if safe to do so, but given the stream of cars crossing the intersection at high speed, it was anything but safe.

The lunatic was ready to drive around me to force his way into the intersection when I got a decent gap in cross traffic and tore away from him and his lunacy.

Of course he jetted onto the main road and I quickly merged a few lanes away from him. I could see him yelling at me in a frothy rage.

Fortunately my next intersection was a left hand turn, whereas he had to turn right again. And once again Mr #RoadRage got worked up into a lather because the driver in front of him was doing the same thing as me: patiently waiting for a gap in cross traffic before turning.

The only saving grace I suppose is it instantly showed me that this was nothing personal. Everyone and anyone on the road was an obstacle to his manic driving.

There was some stat about Dodge Ram drivers having an absolutely awful association with substance abuse and presumably anger management issues. And it shows.

Let me start by saying my adult daughter & I are now safe...

Yesterday, we were threatened with a GUN by another driver, for no crime other than being unable to go faster (due to the salt truck & four cars in front of us, while driving on a two-lane road with oncoming traffic).

When we finally reached a left turn lane at a light, the extreme-tailgaiter behind us pulled around & pointed a GUN at my daughter in the passenger seat, before driving straight on.

I was unable to get a clear lisc plate, but police were very responsive. Unfortunately, we had been on rural roads, so no traffic cams caught him driving behind us to determine his plate number.

This was in the far suburbs of #Chicago , between #Naperville and #Aurora.

And that was not the same person as this a-hole [video].

I am 60 years old. I have never before seen a gun used or pointed at anyone in my life.

I truly believe the #MAGA mentality is empowering these jerks.

GCN made a video on #RoadRage .
Interesting interviews on the topic. I wish they had been a bit harsher with the 2 folks they interviewed and highlighted to them their own contradictions:
* more infra help but not willing to accomodation it
* Not wanting to hurt anyone but unwilling to slow down

Warning:
* It contains some disturbing scenes (but that is not just that)
* YouTube link

What the #data says about dangerous #driving and #roadrage in the #US.

pewresearch.org/short-reads/20

About half of #Americans (49%) say people in their area are driving more dangerously than before the #coronavirus #pandemic, while only 9% say people are driving more #safely, according to a new Pew Research Center survey. What publicly available data there is on the subject suggests that those perceptions may be right, at least in part.

Really love the Tesla owner going probably 30 miles an hour on a slow street, screeching to a halt at a stop sign when he sees me in the cross walk, then honks at me when I look his way (he was seconds from just hitting me).

And then turning down the street as I keep going, rolling down his window and verbally berate me “hey, I stopped didn’t I? Asshole!” As if I should be praising him for … following the law? He kept that up for most of the block before speeding off.

Meanwhile, I said *nothing* and did *nothing* other than use a cross walk and look at him as I crossed.
