    For once I agree with Rat. My favorite is when the offending driver wake’s up just in time to be the last one through the light

    Rat’s calculations are on a global scale.

    My Dad would get out of the car and smile and wave at the honker.

    Most often you get half a peace sign for being a honker, or some other nuisance on the highway. And…. the definition of “split second” is the time between the light turning green and the car horn behind you.

    A mouse trap can solve this problem. Does rat like cheese?

    I’ve saw a lot of rants and raves about being on mobile phones/smartphones while driving.

    I don’t blame them at all… Rant away.

    The world needs to know.

    It’s now a primary offense to talk on the phone while driving in Maryland. Thank you for that sanity.

    I heard about a man who’s car stalled and the woman behind him started honking incessantly. He got out of the car and walked back to her and said: “Lady if you will go and get my car started, I will stay back here and honk your horn”.

    Yeah—or don’t pull out far enough when waiting to make a left turn, go too slow and not pulling over to let people pass (you can get a ticket for this in CA), speed up just as you try to change lanes, almost miss their exit and pull across 4 lanes in 75 MPH traffic….

    I cannot begin to describe how it is here in my home state. People drive as if they have ALL day!!! I generally wait for a second or two before I honk. What also irks me is when the light is green up ahead, and cars are crawling as if the light ahead will stay green forever. And the herd driving (following like a caravan in one lane while the next lane is empty) is ridiculous. If anyone breaks the herd, it is like a national crime or something. Also, 8 out of 10 drivers here daydream or text at the light. Where is Mr. Snuffles or Guard Duck when u need em??!!!!
