Fascinating probably isn't the word you want.
No it is...it's fascinating that you can't (or won't) see that you're a bigger traffic issue than the person honking and believe that your reaction is justified.
Oh. Wait, we have a misunderstanding. This can happen online when you can't type inflection or tone. My bad.
I am fully aware of my actions, the results, the costs, and fully accept any consequences that come my way. I am not under any impression that I am not a problem, not the bigger asshole, or less petty than anyone else. I drive about 200 to 250 miles in a 40 hour work week and have tons of experience with bad drivers. Sometimes I get in a mood and basically lash out at everyone. It's a fault of mine and I know it. I'm not apologizing for it or working to correct it. Petty? You bet. Asshole? Present. Cause of accidents? No, I'm actually very careful not to do that.
I'm by and large a way more courteous driver than most people I see. You have a turn signal on? I'll do everything I can to help you change lanes. I zipper merge like they showed in the text book. Do I speed? Yes, but never more than 5mph over the limit and never in a resedential area. Every bicyclist gets at least 5 feet of clearance. People walking dogs get the same.
But you honk at me in the first second of a green? We're waiting till I feel like going.
