Halos lahat naman ng mga seryosong kinalabasan ng simpleng traffic incidents eh nagmula sa petty misunderstandings at unnecessary hotheadedness on the roads.

Take the cases of the Hultmanns, Maguan and that All Saint's Day shooting and a lot more unreported cases. Ang tatapang nila when confronting someone they think they can bully with the insunuations of having a gun pero pag nakakulong na, ang a-among mga tupa, sising sisi!

That's why it's very unwise and dangerous to get one's self into an argument with anyone on the road. A seemingly decently-dressed motorist may just be looking for an excuse to let go of the shift lever and shift with his gun instead; some utility drivers keep a tube pipe handy for measuring fuel levels as well as laying on a cut-wound on your forehead for your doctor to measure later.
I saw two taxi drivers wrestling and punching each other beside their stopped vehicles in an Edsa traffic. In front of our shop before, a tall neatly dresed guy got out of his car and repeatedly kicked on the fender of a hapless driver's taxi. Even the responding policeman seemed to be in deference with the rage of the man.

A person inside his car brings in all his outside problems with him. Endless traffics and arrogant drivers do nothing but elevate his frustrations from home, office or sometimes, just a false belief in one-upmanship and an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth..which may leave someone toothless later on!

Dito sa tin where a simple no-meaning glance to a fellow drinking at a nearby table in a bar could get you a spare faucet in the belly, I'd say "mauna ka na sa pupuntahan mo, I'm not that eager to go there with you"!
