On the way to work this morning, I saw two nuckleheads, one in a big white pick up truck looked like a construction worker with all his tools in the back, the other a punk kid in a supped up low rider Nissan lookin' thing with the custom wheels and all swirving into each other.

I pulled left into the turning lane while they were going strait tward the red light.

I looked up in my mirror and saw the guy in the white pick up, throw his door wide open and jump out, pulling open the passenger side door of the other car and commence to beat the living crap out this guy.

From what I saw, it looked as though the kid was provoking the older guy.

My light turned green, and I'm not the type to watch a fight, espessially on the highway.

Couldn't help but wonder what happened though. My office is in a ten story building right at that intersection and can see almost a wreck a day at that intersection from my window. Everytime I hear a screech of tires I look up to see what happenes. It's usually some idiot running a red light.

First time I've seen a fight in the middle of the road though.

So, are you one of those people that jump out of your car and beat the other person that cut you off?

Are you one of those people that hold up traffic to watch an accident or a fight.

Or are you one of those people who can't drive and piss everyone else off on your way to work?

My mom and dad taught me to keep on steppin..stuff like this (wrecks, trasgedies, fires etc) are none of my business to be gawking at.

You were raised right!!

I have no respect for anyone who lets their anger get out of control over something as silly as another rude driver. And I hate gawkers! Just drive!

And people at News scenes in the background of the camera..wtf? Have some self respect and decency. What are they there for, waiting to get seen on television? Gawd.

Fortunately I keep my feathers numbered for, for just such an emergency.

i try to be a careful, driver, and remain calm no matter what kinda crazy stunts other drivers pull.

it's true it's annoying to be cut off by someone who doesn't signal, it sucks being tailgated by morons, it bites being in a lot of traffic situations but it NEVER pays to get angry and lose control.

not on the road, nellie, not on the road.

i am probably one of those drivers that piss others off...but i am also the person who will tell the other driver off too. it is probably not good, but i hate stupid people and if i see one who is annoying me, i will tell them.

I just say my

Yomomma, you have red lights on expressways? Doesn't that kind of kill the "express" part?
