While exiting the post office awhile back, I was taking a long time due to traffic. The car behind me gave a beep on the horn...I returned a one finger wave.

Found out later, it was my neighbor beeping to say hi!

Oops! LOL. I was doing the speed limit in the rain several years ago. I stopped in the left turn lane for the red light. The driver behind me honked, flipped me the bird, passed me on the left, and turned left in front of me.

When I confronted the woman whose office was down the hall from mine, she turned beet red and appologized by explaining she was from the East Coast. I ribbed her about that every chance I got.

I can relate; I have the same automatic reflex that you do, and I'm worried that it will happen sometime when it shouldn't!

One time a friend was at a stoplight behind a car with a bumper sticker that read "Honk if you love Jesus!". So he thought for a moment then decided to honk. He was promptly given the finger.

You know, just yesterday I was explaining to my six-year-old that we are courteous to other drivers and never honk or yell at them because they might be perfectly nice people, and we might even know them!
