Let's get my disclaimer out of the way first: This guy is a freakin' loon who should probably be euthanized. With his own crow bar. Heat it up a bit first, though. I in no way condone his reaction.
That out of the way, I'll play devil's advocate: I'm sick and tired of "road rage" victims saying "but I didn't do anything...". Therein, actually, lies the problem with many drivers today: they have absolutely no idea if or how their behavior affects other motorists around them. Nor could they possibly care less. They are in their own little private cocoons, usually on the phone or texting while they are driving 10-15 mph or more under the speed limit, weaving back and forth, sitting at green lights, running red lights, and all manner of inattentive b.s. They never have and idea that they "did" anything - that is a large part of the frustration in dealing with them.
And before some of you go after me, I'll say I'm pretty damn chill in traffic and around these idiots. I've been stuck in Seattle traffic long enough to have developed a rather "zen-like" calm as a matter of sanity and survival. Oh, I cuss under my breath, but I absolutely avoid any sort of confrontation.
