A couple of weeks ago I tried to exit the highway and a guy wouldn't let me into his lane (I had time and had signaled) and then he yelled at me to F-off and gave me the finger. I couldn't figure out what I had done to him and my husband later said he thought it was my Talent bumpersticker. (The buy was in a modified with ladders, perhaps a union worker.)

There could have been a wreck and this guy's road rage at me could have gotten people killed. Talk about hatred! All for a lousy bumpersticker?

America seems like two different countries sometimes and I think that their hate-filled practices have fed the division.

(I had time and had signaled)

That was your error. Don't you know that turning on a turn signal means 'hurry up and get beside me so that I can't possibly get in front of you'?

I seldom use the signal anymore because the majority of drivers will do anything to keep you from getting in front of them. Just make sure you have plenty of room, change lanes and prepare the middle finger for the inevitable honk. It didn't used to be this way, but now drivers sit in the left lane going exactly the same speed as the person in the right lane, won't let you change lanes, will cut you off to keep from being passed and are generally inconsiderate and self-centered drivers.
