even though his wife was in labour... doesnt give him the right to be a douche bag... i hate people who think they are important just because theyre having/have kids.

you are such a selfish b*tch. yeah, **** YOUR life.

Sorry but you ******* deserve it. For one thing it doesn't solve anything by being just as bitchy as these other road rage jerks on the road. That's how people end up getting killed, and for your sake I hope you don't live in a big city with high crime. Yeah the guy shouldn't have been driving like a maniac even if his wife was in labor, but you have to acknowledge that you weren't any better by slowing down just to piss him off. The mature thing to do would be to just keep on driving the speed you were going in the first place and ignore him.

What would he have done if his dumbass behavior had gotten them into an accident? He was probably stressing his wife out more by driving like a jerk.

its not your fault, i would have done the same thing, it's still dangerous and if it was that bad they should have called an ambulance

Texans are not the friendliest drivers. The traffic sucks. Especially in Dallas. Once you reach the sign that says "Welcome to Dallas" the traffic pretty much stops.

Oops! I don't see why people are saying you deserved it. When driving, 95% of people do things like that to thwart rude drivers like slowing down when people are riding their tail or speeding up when people try to pass them. It's not like you are a jerk and didn't care the wife was in labor. You obviously feel bad about it. The husband should have calmed the **** down and been a safe driver. Labor isn't an excuse for crazy driving. He could have killed his pregnant wife with his road rage. Besides, pregnancy isn't the end of the ******* world, and the baby won't pop out in the fifteen minutes it takes to get to the hospital. Totally not your fault.

I understand that the OP didn't know that there was a lady in the middle of giving birth in the other car, but should have known if a did was talgating the OP that something was wrong. I would have tailed them to the hospitol and made a formal, modest apology.

I hate people like op, I had this happen once to me while in the back of a car having two kidney stones while throwing up one the drive, and passing out. some guy got pissed at my dad going fast so he slowed down really slow and made it so I had to go into the er for a few days and get them surgically removed. if it wasn't for that ass they could have broke them and I would have been able to pass them pain free. just cause one person is rude doesn't give you the right to get it back. two bulls butting heads will get no get over or let them pass if they become a prob or i tap my break lightly send them a hint. some times people have emergency's that they can't call and ambulance for and need to get some place. also to any way saying its just labor, go into it your self or have a kidney stone and you tell me if its not a big deal. it feels like a knife is being stabbed into you and someone is pulling out your insides.

Even if the driver was being an ass which it is in most cases but isn't in the important ones, the best reply is to not be self-righteous and petty by slowing down. This behavior encourages road rage and hurts those who have a reason to be in a rush. Also, even when you are correct about the person behind you, what have you accomplished? You slowed yourself down, pissed the other guy more who will not thing of it as punishment and will not be deterred from it in all likeliness as they will not draw the connection or will just think of you as an ass. In the end you create a lose-lose situation. Congratulations.
