Definitely a cause for serious grumpage, which I don't usually fall victim to, but poor driving skills really flip me out. This could be a board unto itself. And it's not like you can really do anything like flip your lights or lean on the horn, because then you get accused of aggressive driving. It burns me up when I miss a light because someone's on a phone or practically get hit because someone's on a phone and doesn't think they have to stop before making a right turn. This behavior rampant on the streets. And that's coming from someone in NJ, where we all know the nations best drivers reside.

I can abide a person who plain and simply isn't a good driver or an older person who is trying, but a victim of their age (hops curbs, by accident, can't judge the lines in a parking spot, etc.,) but ignorant drivers are another story all together. I don't get into any altercations, gesturing, horns at all with ignorant drivers. How do I handle it? Well, if it's a cell phone that appears to be the cause of erratic driving behavior, and if the situation shouold present itself that we stop at a traffic light and that car is next to, infron or in back of me, then generally I get over my anger with some ZZ Top or Golden Earring, cranked to max vol, which in my mind is so loud that person will be forced to hang up.
