All he did was honk his horn at a car that wasn’t moving getting onto the highway. I guess the guy followed him and it got physical. He’s okay and the guy was arrested but do not honk your horn or engage with other people on the road for real.

Okay so seriously this is something to worry about; I met a guy in university who was the salt of the earth, also very collected and always dressed neat and looking like he’s ready for a business meeting at any time (guy came to university dressed in a business suit; although he was in his thirties, so he probably had a job anyway and that might be the reason); he disappeared for a while and then when he came back he was just dressed like an average university student and you got the sense that this man was dead inside. I found out from him that he was stuck behind someone in traffic back a while ago and honked for the guy to move. The guy came out and beat him near to death, causing him to bleed internally and requiring immediate surgery; the surgeon botched the surgery and damaged his colon (or maybe it was already damaged from the attack?) and he needed a second surgery; the poor guy now unfortunately needs a colostomy bag.

No one deserves to have something happen to them like this, but folks please be careful out there; some folks are just some of the worst humans and could ruin your life for nothing.

Do you honk “at” (note that the horn bothers everyone within earshot) cars that aren’t moving?
