Our island is generally reluctant in the face of change. Ask anyone who lived here when “the roundabout” was installed or the McDonald’s showed up or the main road got paved or…
And we do have our share of domestic violence.
So, I guess it was just a matter of time before road rage appeared. This morning I read about an actual incident of road rage here on our little green rock.
Road rage is a weird concept here, unless of course you’re trying to make the ferry. I’m not sure what the appropriate saint medal would be for protection if you don’t drive 50mph in a school zone dawdle in front of a soccer mom trying to get the 9:40am ferry to hit the downtown Nordstrom sale and be back before school lets out. But I’m pretty sure you’d need some kind of protection.
That’s why it’s so weird that two guys pull over and break out in a fist fight on a Monday night. Burned out from another wild President’s Day weekend?
Well, they obviously failed to read this sign:
Some do-gooder person put a bunch of these up around here more than a year ago.
And this is the first account of road rage I’ve heard of, so they must be working, yes?
It was probably too dark to read it last night.
Are you raging lately? The only rage I feel could be aimed at the public schools for having a 5-day weekend….
