These days you have to use discretion when you toot and flip.

It's rare for me. I only do it when I'm alone and have my weapon close at hand. I also pass judgement on the risk the other driver will raise a ruckus.

The good old days when life was simple.....toot and flip to your hearts content with little fear of retribution, especially fatal retribution. Nobody has a sense of humor.

Road rage is an assinine temper tantrum, which deserves jail time. So many people have been harmed by such a crazy thing. Why is there not something that could be done to prevent crazed motorist who thinks the hiway belongs to them. Now the crazed democrats want to defund police departments and make it worse of course. I believe our world has lost it. Thank you Proud for your post.

I think people who are found guilty of road rage should lose license at least temporarily. There has to be consequences directly related to the offense. Maybe some anger management too.

Oh Proud this really sad where little children can no longer go outside to play or learn. Where drug crazed i***ts can't control themselves. Guess they all feel "Pelosi will protect them".

You do not get to put me in jail for what I think and say. I'll have all the rage I want, thanks. Despite all my rage, I'm still just a rat in a cage.

Shooting/k*****g someone may be a different story.

Maybe we should take away cars or require a special red f**g test?

Road rage results from some "inconsiderate to the situation" move by one driver, the other driver reacts. Shooting is not a realistic answer, but it is important to get the full story before you pass judgement. No telling what t***spired before the escalation to shooting.

One thing that could be done is to actually teach people how to drive. I witness moron maneuvers on the every day.

Anger management should be top priority, it really is stupid for someone wanting to beat somebody to death just because they got in front of them.

You might call it a controlled road rage, which shows a mild irritation. Yes it is aggravating, but you don't want to k**l the person in front of you. Reckless driving deserves traffic tickets, but who has time?

From my experience the root cause is more serious than someone trying to get in front of another driver.

Some examples include
1) erratic swerving and driving speed while on the phone
2) pulling out and failing to achieve appropriate speed
3) failing to signal a turn
4) failing to keep right except to pass
5) filtering
