Most of us refuse to admit whether or not we have road rage. We think that road rage is only for the outrageously insane drivers out there, but if you find yourself relating to these 5 signs, then you probably fall under the category of a Road Rager. The first step is accepting you have a problem. However, admitting it may be harder than that, and that's okay. Baby steps, people.
5. Your friends are terrified to drive with you.
It doesn't matter if you've never been in an accident or received a speeding ticket. They've seen the rage. They've seen the anger. And they fear for their life whenever they get in your vehicle, whether they admit it or not.
4."Are you serious?" ... "I mean, seriously?" ... "ARE YOU KIDDING ME?" ...
A sure sign you have road rage is never knowing whether or not other drivers are serious. Usually these phrases are used in the middle of a story you are telling. You're well acquainted with slamming your foot on the break and hand against the horn in your utter distaste for the human specimen.
3. Getting frustrated at the car in front of you for "driving too slow" even though they're probably driving 5-10 mph over the speed limit anyway...
You probably have road rage if you've ever said, "Come on, granny, let's go," and then passed the car up to realize it was actually an old lady putting along. However, your tiny bit of guilt afterwards doesn't really make up for it as you continue to speed past them; praying God doesn't send you to that special place in hell reserved specifically for road ragers like you.
2. Immediately tapping the breaks when you realize someone is following a little too close.
You don't even realize you're doing it anymore. It's second instinct to give that break a nice couple of taps with each word: GET *taps* OFF *taps* MY *taps* BUTT *taps*.
1. The feeling of anger that rises in you when someone doesn't use their turn signal could only come from Satan himself.
We've all been there. We've finally reached the perfect speed and are riding on cruise when all of a sudden the car in front of us slams on their break and takes a sharp turn. We slam our own breaks to avoid colliding with them and may even spew a few foul sentences before those three little words come darting past our lips: ARE YOU SERIOUS?
