I can say confidently that I've never looked at any other driver doing this and thought anything but, "Jesus Christ, calm the fuck down." I've been that guy doing the honking as well, and I'm fully aware that nobody arounds me gives a shit and they just find me annoying. Hell, half the time most of them don't even know what happened; they just look over and see some overly-angry dude screaming at someone.
>... especially if they have some passenger.
Did you really embarrass them in front of the passenger, or yourself? What if the transgression you're honking at was a genuine mistake with a reason that actually makes sense? I've been the passenger in situations like this before and have found myself thinking, "Yeah, oops, but I don't totally fault my driver or the other driver for this and the chud doing the honking needs to chill out because clearly they don't understand the driver's perspective."
- asdff 5y agoI don't think cutting me off without a turn signal has any logic other than "me me me to the red light first!" If I can get them to have a reaction like "jesus Christ, calm the fuck down" then I am a happy camper. Again there are honest mistakes, and clearly asshole illegal behavior that drivers do like speeding like crazy, cutting people off, weaving through the freeway like a snake, running reds, cutting into lanes and blocking traffic because you must get to the turn lane at the last possible moment before there is a barrier, and willfully ignoring signage like no turns on reds. I'm also not embarrassed about calling out drivers as a pedestrian. Why would I be? I do it when have right of way and they don't and they had the audacity to honk at me for walking when the walk sign is lit. It's fun to call out assholes. I love shouting at them, so satisfying.
