Many of us have the rage at least in minute amounts, but this is so pointless.

Road rage leads to death in SE Harris County
Copyright 2008 Houston Chronicle
A motorcyclist was killed after becoming involved in a road-rage disturbance with another driver in southeast Harris County on Friday night, authorities said.
Donald Gosch, 48, was riding his motorcycle west in the 10200 block of Scarsdale around 8:20 p.m. when he became involved in a confrontation with the driver of a red Mazda Miata near Beamer Road, Harris County sheriff's officials said.
Gosch, along with his son and a friend, who were also on motorcycles, chased the Mazda through a nearby neighborhood before coming back on Scarsdale, police said. Riding side by side with the Mazda, Gosch then attempted to kick and strike the driver of the car while riding his motorcycle, authorities said.
The Mazda and motorcycle possibly made contact, causing Gosch, who was not wearing a helmet, to leave the road and hit a tree, authorities said. He was pronounced dead at the scene.
No further information was immediately available.
at least the instigator (according to the facts so far) was the one killed and not a bystander or other innocent party
it's basically a thinning of the herd, hopefully the son and friend will learn something from this
