Comment on Why do people road rage?

If you’re stuck behind someone going slower than you want to, how can you clearly communicate that?
Even in a world where you could clearly speak to them, there’s huge potential for disagreement there, and since the only communication mechanisms can very easily be construed as needlessly dangerous or aggressive, of course you’re gonna see frustration and anger as a result

I disagree, I think most of the time it’s pretty easy to read someone’s intention (since there are only limited choices and there are ways of communicating like indicators). But I think the fact that you’re not face to face with the person and are much more likely not to face consequences for your actions definitely plays into it
