I will. or maybe not
See, being unterviewed by you about my time spent as someone who got road raged at is time that I know I need to take up...
Well I'll tell you about getting road raged at.
I was driving at night and was entering the freeway. It was packed. The lane I was in, which was ending was empty. Now usually I merge right away. It's only fair. Why should I get to skip the line. But no one was letting me in, so I kept going until I felt like I just absolutely needed to make a space for myself
Oh this all happened in Seattle
Anyways, I pull in, not dangerously, but yes, I pull in front of someone who did NOT want to let me in.
Well he drives really close to my bumper, flashes his brights at me and revs his engine. scary stuff. Then he pulls into the lane next to mine and indicates I should roll down the window.
I should say, I started this story kind of indicating that it was scary, but when he did that, I had been asking myself why in the world someone would do that and coming to the conclusion that I must have a flat tire or something. This person must be urgently trying to tell me something is wrong with the car.
time
he leans out the window and ...just stares at me. Like he's going to kill me.
Then he speeds off into the night.
