[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]He was out of line but you sound like you're  partiality to blame.  You say you "managed" to get in front of him to take an exit.  Did you wait until the last minute and cut in front of a long line of cars patiently waiting?  Did you cut him off?  You did something that set him off.  Also, why not switch lanes and slow down to let him get in front of you so you could disengage?  [/quote]
Are you seriously justifying road rage behavior? I hope you're teaching your kids better.  :roll: [/quote]

No, see the first five words.[/quote]

OP here.  So what would you do in this situation if I got in front of you?  I was obviously unfamiliar with the area and trying to follow Waze's directions home.  I had kids in the car.  I was not driving aggressively and had my blinker on.  So sorry, I don't agree with you on this one and hope I don't encounter you on the road.[/quote]

You should acknowledge that it was your mistake and keep going make the next available u turn and try again. Not cut off someone who did not contribute to your mistake. That's selfish. [/quote]

I agree if the person actually cuts someone off.  However, I did not cut anyone off.  There was an opening to slip in and I had my blinker on.  As soon as I put my blinker on, the guy tried to speed forward to prevent me from getting in, but I got in before he could do so.  That is a lot different than cutting someone off.  The other guy was driving aggressively....and obviously was a nutcase to boot.[/quote]

This sounds reasonable. It's unbearable for certain type-As to let their guard down, so to speak, and somebody gets to slip in. They are angry at themselves for not accelerating quick enough. [/quote]
