Why is there so much road rage?

The last few years there have been many instances of violent encounters. I don't condone it, but I can kind of understand it. People, you drive like assholes. Cutting others off, speeding up when others try to pass you, not stopping a stop signs, going 70/75 and you assholes have to tailgate, then you wonder why someone wants to kick your ass.

Like i said, I don't condone it, but in some cases I kind of understand it.

Think people. How about that idiot that just shot at that handyman van. Dude is going to prison over shooting with a BB gun. I guess it's better than getting blown away by a guy with a real gun.
