When such a thing happened tothis guy, he wasnt going to let it slide.
While I created my Reddit account years ago, I really didnt use Reddit until this past year.
With more time spent on Reddit, I started discovering interesting subs.
That said, we were not in traffic.
He actually turned right and would have hit me if I hadnt hit the brakes.
When I honked at him, he flipped me off/gave me the finger and sped off.
Once he did that, I knew what I had to do.
For the author, situations like the one he shared arent anything new.
Living in SoCal, I see irresponsible drivers daily.
Lots of texting and drivingthose people think they are really sly.
Many like to get in the Fast, number 1, and passing lane and text there.
Lots of speeding up and slowing down.
Why they cant use cruise control, I dont know.
But there are a lot of texters in all lanes.
One of the most commonreasonsfor such dangerous driving is misjudging their car operating skills.
People who speed and rapidly change lanes often assume they are better drivers than they actually are.
Such overconfidence leads them to believe they can get away with more dangerous behavior on the roads.
They also often have less control over their cars, leading to accidents.
Another factor contributing to hazardous driving is impatience.
To make it more exciting, some may start maneuvering faster and more carelessly.
Lastly, a significant part of driving is our state of mind.
Instead, they should slow down and watch for cars behind them.
If such reckless driving results in a collision, car owners must notify the police and contact insurance companies.
In most cases, the insurance of thedriverwho caused the accident covers any damages and injuries they caused.
Admittedly, you cant control what other people on the road do.
But to lower the chance of getting into an accident, it helps to be a defensive driver.
If you notice an aggressive driver, slow down or pull over.
Being prepared is key, as you cant completely depend on other drivers to have good operating skills.
