road rage

road rage

i’m driving on the hwy out to my house back from grocery shopping and there’s this car in the left lane that’s going about 55 (speed limit’s 60). he’s ahead a little bit, so i figure i’ll just scoot around him so i can make my left turn at the next stop light, when the light before my turn turns red. no problem, i’ll just speed around him when it turns green. i do it a lot.
so, light turns green, i speed up, and mr. cavalier (i should’ve known after i saw it was a cavalier) decides i’m not getting around him. i’m going 75 in the 60, and mr. cavalier is right there in my driver’s blind spot. nice. light’s coming up, so i quick get around him and he is on my butt the whole way. i signal and move over, and mr. cavalier is turning also. whatever. so i get to the last stop sign before my house;  mr. cavalier has followed me thus far, and few people go straight (the way i’m going). i go straight, and i can see mr. cavalier in my rear-view mirror sit at the stop sign a little bit before signaling and turning right (only after another car pulled up behind him). was he going to follow me to my house or something?
why do people do this? are they trying to teach people who go faster than them a lesson or something? or just some dumb bennie or johnnie being ultra-dumb? ugh. it irks my road rage into overdrive!!!
