This morning I was driving into work minding my own business, when this young guy in a Ford Fiesta decides that he needs to tailgate me. I'm on a two-lane roadway that is quite congested during rush hour traffic. When I finally was able to move over to the right lane, he's waving his fist and me and yelling something (though I couldn't hear him as he didn't put his window down and neither had I). I guess I was not driving fast enough for him (this despite the fact everyone travels at a rate of about 20 over the speed limit to begin with). I find this is an all-too frequent reaction from people to drive aggressively around "nice" cars. Are they really jealous of a 20-year old, $10K car?? This only seems to occur on this one portion of my commute, where I notice many people driving very aggressively and with little regard to the people around them. Maybe I just don't want to accept that the general populace is moving in this direction in terms of driving etiquette...
