My Summary Of Road Warrior

Have you ever been driving the posted speed limit , and all of a sudden a young crazy teenage guy is tailgating you to the point where he is tapping your bumper? Road rage is a big problem in the United states. Whether it be driving too fast or tailgating. Behaviors that cause road rage also lead to parking lot rage, and shopping cart rage.

Another factor of road rage is the young teenager with the fast car and the loud music. Their music is so loud the bass rattles the cars around him. Not only is his music so loud but they insist on driving faster then the speed of light.

Not only is road rage a big problem, people are also faced with parking lot rage. As Barry mentioned in the essay "Which occurs when I pull into a crowded supermarket parking lot, and I see people get into their car, clearly ready to...
