You’re totally in the right but I’m not even understanding why the car “in front of you”/“across from you” is honking at you. This is the car heading the opposite direction?

This is just this past instance, but I serious when I say something similar has happened at a once/week clip the past month or so. It's getting really annoying. Several weeks ago, I had some young woman slam on the horn while on her cell phone in the other hand. Awesome! |

Surprisingly, we have the opposite problem with 4-way stops here in Florida. Since nobody pays attention to anything, and nobody seems to know any rules of the road, they act like they have no clue who should be going first, next, and so on.
Many drivers already ignore the stop signs entirely, slowing down only enough to make make sure they can lock up the brakes in time to avoid t-boning someone. Most everyone else sits there frantically signaling to the other person to go next by repeatedly flashing their headlights at each other. Personally, I don't understand why these things are so difficult to understand. Remaining aware of things around you would go a long way towards making your time behind the wheel a lot less traumatic. |
