I gotta say, the vast majority of phone users I've seen who have
****ed me off are the ones who get so engrossed in their phone
conversation that they slooooow dooooown to the point of being an
obstruction. Can't tell you how many times I've been caught behind
one of those rolling backups to finally get to the front & find some
idiot (yes, usually female) chatting away while doing 5 miles under
the limit in the fast lane.

This isn't limited to cell phone use, of course. The majority of
drivers who royally **** me off are the ones who seem oblivious to the
fact they're part of a larger conglomeration of fellow humans on the
road and have no apparent recognition of their responsibilities
outside their own cocoon.
