Default Road Ragers? Sorry? Too funny....

A bit of surfing came across the following snippet of humor:

ROTFLMAO!

Make a "SORRY" Sign
According to a regional survey conducted by Drs. Arnold P. Nerenberg
and R. Jerry Adams, over half of drivers in the USA suffer from road
rage. The average number of incidents per road rager is 27. That
means that most of us will encounter road ragers many times in our
lives. Road rage can lead to injuries or even death. The U.S.
Highway Safety Office has testified to Congress that tens of thousands
of accidents each year can be linked directly to aggressive driving,
including road rage, and is now a leading cause of death for young
children.

A road rager can become upset because you accidentally cut in front of
him or her, or other reasons that were not intentional. A key factor
in reversing the process is an apology. Over 85 percent of road
ragers said that they would drop the matter if the other "careless"
driver simply apologized. Instead, road ragers claim, the "careless"
driver seems to be unconcerned about what they just did and, therefore,
needs to be taught a lesson.

In a car, only one method is effective in conveying an apology: A sign.
We have found that it is very effective in warding off anger. In
fact, many drivers actually smile when we raise a "SORRY" sign to them
after we have accidentally done something wrong. We keep a "SORRY"
sign in the map holder on the driver's door and the passenger's door.
It could also be kept under the sun visor if it is fastened with a clip
or rubber band so that it doesn't hit you in the face when the visor
comes down.

Here's a better suggestion to those imbeciles who would consider
needing to carry a "sorry" sign around in your car: LEARN HOW TO
****ING DRIVE. Put down the cell phone; leave the radio alone, ignore
how your hair looks, and pay attention to the damned road. Don't give
up the task of "learning to drive" as soon as you pass that mediocre
excuse for a licensing exam. That way, we can *ALL* get to where we are
going safely, efficiently, and without incident.

Learn to drive, and improve driving conditions for everyone. That way
no "sorry" signs are needed.

About the only reason I can see for having a "sorry" sign is if you
were moronic enough to be the author of the crap posted at the site
above.

Of course, if you're retarded and/or from Colorado, this doesn't apply
to you.
