Cars+Stupid People = Road Rage for Doscon

I'll readily admit that my temper flares more while driving than in any other time during my day. Here are two examples from my morning commute today.

1. Some traffic lights hold longer than others. One in particular for my drive. We sit for probably 4 minutes. Finally, the light turns green. I'm probably #8 in line. Two cars go through the light. What does the person (woman) in front of me do? She opens her door and dumps her ash tray. WTF! At this very moment, with her sausage arm floating in space, there are no cars between her and the light. I curse, then hammer the horn. My bad...she turns to look. My blood pressure goes tilt. She closes the door and speeds toward what is now a Yellow light. The light turns Red . She runs it. I'm stuck for the next rotation.

2. Two miles later and I'm out of the burbs and merging onto the Interstate. WTF? The person (woman) driving the car in front of me (different car, different driver) has been given a clean space in which to merge. Traffic parted like the Red Sea just for her. What does she do? From this point until the merging lane ends, she rides the dash at 20mph. Merge! Geez! The dude (man) behind her slows to let me in. As traffic moves forward and I pass, I glance to give her the stare. Take a guess what she's doing?
She's reading a book. WTF. /story

I hate when your at a green light yet you are stuck waiting for those bastards who continue to one-by-one run their red left turn light. I have had the satisfactory a couple times seeing a cop sit right next to me at this same light shaking his head then proceeding to turn on his lights and pull them sons-a-bitches over!

Its those kind of people that can turn my 20 mile commute into a literal 3 hour tour. Just be happy that it's still summer and there wasn't snow to freak out the less intelligent drivers.

the cops around here love to catch people stacking the lane which blocks the intersection - immediate ticket

I *HATE* smokers that think cigarette butts don't count as littering.

I love people who wait at the very end of the merge lane to get into traffic... uhm, dipshit, that lane is so you can speed up and enter the flow of traffic, not wait at the end of it like an artard.

Jedi - It bugs me even more when I try to be nice, make ample room for someone to merge, and they sit there and contemplate the situation like a dipshit because they think they're driving a big rig and not a festiva...

traffic was moving decent...about 50mph (70) before Book-of-the-Month showed up for the block and bottle neck
