Unwarranted bitchiness

By lois2lane - 23/12/2009 07:15 - United States

Today, a car was tailgating and honking at me while trying to pass me, so I decided to be a bitch back and go extremely slow. We got to a two lane road and the car passed me up. The man in the front seat flipped me off while pointing to his wife in the back seat who was clearly in labor. FML

that's your fault. you should never do that anyways.

Disagreed. How the hell was the OP supposed to know there was a woman giving LABOR in the backseat? Honestly, would you have pulled over, because I sure wouldn't have. 99.9% of the time, the tailgater is just being an asshole and just *can't stand* going the speed limit. This is one of the rare [and I mean RARE] times that they had a legitimate reason for being an ass. The OP was not a terrible person for going slower, just human. If you're going to say that, shouldn't you also say that the driver was a terrible person because he really did jeopardize the woman and her baby by taking his eyes off the rode and twisting around to point in the backseat? Besides, honestly the driver should've passed earlier if he was on his way to the hospital, instead of trying to tailgate the person. It takes literally one second to do so.

It's not like you coulda known she was in labor but still you shouldntve done that

Haha I woulda done the dame thing!!! An I do!!!

Ambulances aren't always free depending on where you live and your health coverage, a lot of people drive their pregnant SO to the hospital themselves. If you're gonna do that though, you should use your hazard lights or something, and should definitely not speed/tailgate other drivers; you're not driving a big obvious emergency vehicle with lights and sirens. That said, anyone who slows down in traffic is being a hazard to other motorists and that's just as dangerous as speeding (because it provokes other drivers into driving aggressively). People need to learn to use their brains.

how were you supposed to know she was in labor?

Still no reason for him to drive like a year. If someone was doing that to me I'd react exactly the same way as you

I honestly don't think it's your fault. Anyone else would've done the same.

No, they wouldn't have. A lot of people would have been more mature about it.

The guy should've had his emergency lights on

I fail to see how your life is ******. It is more the the people who passed you whose lives are ******.
