Whats your problem!?

Adding mine...

Busy time at Burger King drive thru. But, I am patient, even tho the DD is StArViNG and tells me so every 5 seconds. lol
We finally get to the window to order. Wonderful service. Next window we pay. Sweet cashier. 3rd window, get our food. Served with a smile. I am thinking Woohoo!! Survived the fast food journey and now DD can eat and leave me alone.

Pull forward and veer slightly to the right to make a right hand turn. One car in front of us. No problem, I am getting DS's food unwrapped anyways. Food now all unwrapped, straw in drink, ketchup opened and squirted onto fries.

Still waiting behind car in right lane to make right hand turn. Other cars have pulled into left lane to make left hand turn and have successfully done so. I am watching lady in car in front of me leisurely mixing sweet-n-low into her tea, sipping, unwrapping, squirting, munching... We have now been there long enough that Burger King is at a full stop as no one can move any further until she does. No one is giving orders, taking money or getting food. She has backed up traffic 20 some cars deep to the point that no one can even pull in from the highway because they are all waiting for this one car to move forward.

I have now edged my Silverado Ext Cab PU to the point that I am literally touching her bumper. She can not help but see me, my grill must cover her entire rear window. I finally decide enough is enough and BLAST the horn. Tea goes spraying into the air, as she nearly drops it, her car buddies in the back seat have probably wet their pants. And she has the nerve to give ME a dirty look as she pulls out INTO oncoming traffic without looking.

Mrs. Green Thumbs :

Ugh ... in my area it's worse.. we have a high population of illegal worker's. They are TERRIFIED of being deported so rather than doing the speed limit they insist on doing at the very least 10 under the speed limit... I commute 13 miles one way not too far but far enough to be a treck. These people always get off work about the same time I do and drive 25 in the 40, 40 in the 55, ect. It's nuts!

Just wait til they find out they can get a ticket for going too slow as well

Several years ago I had a coworker come to work laughing, because her cousin, a new immigrant from the Philippines, was in jail his second day in the US. It seemed that he was driving down a local Hwy through Seattle. It is Hwy 99. He thought the sign 99 meant he should drive that fast. Thankfully no one was hurt and the police stopped him in time before anyone got hurt. I think he had to go to traffic school.

Imp- Think I'll stay off I-405

last road rage incident I saw I was actually the passenger. Got stuck behind a pick up going 32mph on a 55mph road. Guy was talking on the cell phone and everytime we swerved to try to pass he'd swerve and cut us off. Finally we passed and my daughter gave a toot of the horn. Guess one of the teens in my back seat flipped the guy off and he tried running us off the road. Didn't recognize him from that point but he jumped out of his car and was going to open my door as I'm thumbing the release of my .45 to get it out. Daughter squeals the tires so he is still breathing air for now...

Pull onto our road to go into our driveway and he blocks us. It is the new guy from the end of the road. We talk a moment, and I apologize for a kid flipping him off. As calmly as possible I tell him about how he was lucky for a number of reasons.......

1. Driving to endanger (cuz we don't have true road rage laws)
2. Reckless endangerment
3. Impeding the flow of traffic
4. Threat of an assault by his actions
5. I almost ventilated the fool with half a dozen rounds through the door panel.

Of course his wife goes into hysterics about calling the cops because I threatened to shoot him. Told him go ahead, my buddy is just coming on shift. Also pointed out that an act of road rage such as he was about to commit definitely would justify a fatal shooting by a legal ccw/ccp license holder. She calmed down and he went back to the end of the road. Oddly enough he never waves hi when I drive pass anymore
