I hate a**hole drivers (NBR)

lizal · August 2012

I don't think I did anything wrong here, tell me if I did. I was stopped in a line of traffic and to my right was the entrance to a gas station. There was a lady behind me who started throwing her hands in the air and rolling her eyes motioning for me to scoot up so she could turn right into the gas station. There was a car in front of me and I thought I was as close as I should be but I scooted up a little more and the lady still couldn't turn right.

She proceeded to wave her hands in the air and I could see her yelling at me. About 10 seconds later the light turned green anyway and she was able to turn in. I was in a freaking line of traffic for goodness sakes. I don't know why but it really ticked me off. That's all, sorry for venting.

I've had people do that to me before. I'm like, "I'm not going to push the car in front of me just because you can't wait for traffic to move so you can make your turn." My reaction usually depends on my mood. If I'm in a good mood, I will make fun of them, wave my arms frantically, mimicking them. If I'm in a bad mood, they get the finger and a delay in me moving when the light turns green.

P.S. If I have passengers, they get in on the "make this guy feel like and idiot" routine also.

I honestly wouldn't have moved up any further if I was as close as I felt comfortable being to the car in front of me. I usually leave a few inches between me and the car in front of me just in case there is an idiot behind me who decides to rearend me so I don't hit the car in front of me, so if there is someone who doesn't like it they can wait like everyone else. A few extra seconds is not going to hurt anyone.
