Default Funny Road Rage Story

So a buddy and I are coming home from school and we are on an onramp to a two lane highway. It was bumper to bumper traffic the entire time. I'm on the on ramp which is about a mile long and it's only one lane so everyone was trying to cut everyone off in order to get in line. So, I'm right behing someone and this lady in a Nissan SUV type vehicle gets right next to me (about a foot and a half from my driver side door) and basically tells me to make way for her by getting so close to me and giving her vehicle some gas (which, mine was much louder ). I laugh and shake my head and mouth the words "I don't think so" while looking straight ahead.

So, I make her get behind me because there was no way in hell I was going to budge after already behing in bumper to bumper traffic for 30 mins and basically idling my way for about 4 miles. She gets p1ssed. Which, I didn't really care. We hit the highway (which is still bumper to bumper and two lanes) and we are both in the slow lane. She veers right and comes up on the passenger side and drives up the brake down lane and throws the universal number 1 sign out the window while cutting off three or four cars and gets back in the slow lane. I wave to her with all five fingers while laughing, which I'm sure it pissed her off even more .

The good part... Traffic begins to pick up in the fast lane . I throw my signal on and jump into the fast lane. I have enough room to catch up to her so I do so and get about a car length diagonally behind her and she puts her hand out the window and does the "bring it" hand motion. Oh, I brough it LOL. I give my truck a little gas and she gives her whatever you call it some gas. I lay off it and then put it to the floor. Loud as can be. I completely flew by her as she tried to keep up with me but had a car in front of her. I laughed as I flew by and stuck my hand out the window and waved goodbye. She took the next exit off.

Long post but it was some fun stuff

I've had my share of those - idiots driving in a lane that ENDS in 100' or so and they want me to yield so they can get in line. I know that lane ends, so I don't use it. Therefore, they can get behind me! Or the bozo who wants to hurry to get in front and then drive below the already-retarded speed limit. !@)*)(@*$()#!&**

I hate Shreveport traffic...I go nuts, yelling and cussing with all the people cutting me off, running red lights, and not using their blinkers

I would probably not have a gun in my truck if I lived in a big city

here in central illinois, its seems like its either old people driving ridiculously slow or asians driving down the wrong way of a one way. Today a girl i know drivin her brand new 2010 camero(which is fun as hell to drive) got side swiped basically by a super old lady who decided to switch lanes without looking. And the old lady refused to sign the ticket because she claimed it wasnt her fault so it has to go through the whole insurance company process. But its always hilarious to **** someone off who thinks they own the road.....
