Yep, you've always gotta drive for others (idiots in most cases)

i must feel like this at least twice a week????
i'm impressed this is your 1st crossing with road rage, it just frustrates me because cars are dangerous things and yet people do the most idiotic and rude things seemingly just to annoy me.
can't say i ever really follow up though, maybe if someone pulls onto a roundabout when there wasn't enough time and my right of way then i always pull out slightly just as a learning experience for the fool.
oh and scooters, simply can't control my anger when i hear that meeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeb, i turn into the hulk

Some people have tunnel vision, theres a mini roundabout near to where i live and its on a commuter route ive actually been on the roundabout and had cars cut me up, some drivers are just not aware of what is going on around them. I'd have hit the horn and kept it there till she noticed you..
Worked for me a couple of times..

Only thing is, most of them stare at with utter contempt for waking them up/not realising that you're supposed to get out of their way
The best thing to do is drive as if everyone else is an utter muppet and about to do the dumbest thing imaginable. Then you just have to cope with your own amazement at how many of them are and do.

Yeah i hate crap drivers - just do my head in, so many people on the road shouldn't be!

A couple of weeks ago I was driving my gf back from a weekend at my mums - going up the A1M at about 80/85 completely dead cos it was near 12 on a sunday night - caught up with a fiesta that was doing 75 in the 3rd lane with no other car for about half a mile!! What are you doing in the third lane!! Use them properly!!!!!!!
Hate lane hoggers!

I live out in the sticks, and In the area where I live a lot of the driving is absolutely abysmal, and the fatal accident rate is creeping up. Too be honest id rather drive in cental london..
