"YOU IDIOT!"

Yesterday I experienced my first road rage incident in Tucson. I was running to an appointment on the sidewalk and a woman pulled in front of me out of a driveway and shall I say cut me off. I held up my arms exasperated. Then she yelled out of her window, "You idiot, go around!" What ensued was a yelling match. To make a long story short, I became Dustin Hoffman screaming, "I'm walking here! I'm walking here!" The name calling and the middle fingers kept on for another 5 minutes. I came away from the incident feeling guilty yet strangely liberated. All these months I've been the "nice guy" adjusting to accomodate a lot of people in my life and I guess it had to boil over sometime...

Dude, THIS is exactly the sort of thing you need to capture on video.
I need details. Specific names, hand gestures and level of public embarrassment from 1-10. You should carry the "Fuck you, you fucking fucker" card wherever you go.
AWESOME!

Also - did you get her phone number? Maybe there was a connection.
Also - you have to turn this into some kind of acting exercise for your students.
