They might be "young and stupid" (weren't we all
?), they might be amped on Meth, amped with 'roid rage, or are just crazy and ready to end it all and take others with them ... you just never know.
I will not be stoopid ever again on the road .... I hope

I had a revolver pointed at my head once on a trip to N. Myrtle Beach as a teen... don't know what that other driver thought we said or did (there were 4 of us) at that stoplight in Rockingham, but he was a nutcase.
Live & learn & post another day guys
