YEAH I AM A PRETTY CRAZY DRIVER. THE ONLY REASON I DONT HAVE A SH*TLOAD OF TICKET IS CUZ MY TRUCK IS BONE STOCK! MY LAST ONE WAS LOWERED- AND I HAD LIKE 12 TICKETS!!!

Just a 28 but I wonder what it would be if they gave a better selection of answers. I can't really break my driving down by Sometimes/often/always since it adapts to the conditions around me. Come one at least give us a 1-10 scale of how often it gets us upset.

Now net-rage I'd score a lot higher on! Poorly designed websites or websites that could be so much better really get me upset user posted image

I think jhitesma has "Internet Rage"

Some might think I need counselling, but 78 doesn't sound so bad. You do need to get all that frustration out somewhere, don't you.
TACO
I'M WITH U BIG AL! THE ONLY REASON I EVER GET FRUSTATED ON THE ROAD, IS BECAUSE OF WHAT OTHER DRIVERS ARE DOING. ITS NOT ME. user posted image

I think I got an unfairly high score (even though It's less than half some of yours) because I don't have a horn on my truck.

It blew up when I added a second battery and for whatever reason decided to hook the cables up bakwards and let all the magic smoke out.

So I got a higher score because I use my headlights when people cut me off and such.

Then again, it's not really retaliatory, I'm just trying to make the morons realize cutting off a truck with tires taller than their roof isn't a good idea. And I'd let them off with a friendly honk instead of a blast of halogen if I had a horn that works.

Seriously though I think the big problem with road rage is a lot like the problems at the dunes. People aren't showing each other the respect they expect to receive. You gotta give respect to get respect and too many people on the roads and in the dunes act like they're the only ones who matter. It all snowballs because once someone disrespects someone else it gets that person upset and they stop thinking about acting respectfully to everyone else and just focus on how angry they are at the first idiot, next thing you know their concentration has lapsed and they're not the idiot to a fresh driver.

Alright, I'll stop complaining and start trying to help. I'll keep making an effort to drive and act more repectfully to everyone else. Who knows with a little luck it may turn out to be as contagious as the self-centeredness.

I got a 20.

I thought the "get angry at your passengers" and "Impatient waiting for passengers to get it" were hilarious!

STAY C

I got a 5. I don't let idiot drivers get to me, it's not worth it, I don't need a heart attack. In the dunes it is a different story... Lead, follow, or get the hell out of the way! user posted image

AAA told me this...

KEY REMINDERS TO FORGET BEING COMPETITIVE

The more you speed, the less you experience your surroundings.
Enjoy the ride with your companions. If you race and compete you will not be fully attentive to the conversation.
Instead of thinking that winning is everything, start to think that making it to your destination safely is the only thing that matters.
Allow more time for your trips. You’ll be amazed at how much more relaxed you will be when you have a few extra minutes.

the one thing that bothers me is the second one, dont they always say NOT to talk to passengers? If you can do that why not a cell phone? sheesh... user posted image

I GOT A 38 AND EVERYONE SAYS I'M TOO AGGRESSIVE BEHIND THE WHEEL. P.S. I WOULDN'T GET MAD IF THE DAMN SLOW PEEPS WOULD STAY IN THE SLOW LANE WHERE THEY BELONG OR GET OUT OF THE WAY OF FASTER MOVING VEHICLES!
