I hate crowded, busy parking lots. One of my greatest peeves is the driver who stops, blocking traffic, waiting for an occupied spot to become available. It really aggravates me, but I am generally patient and do not blow the horn, although I may mouth something.
Yesterday, when I was leaving a store, there was a car that was stopped partway into a row, waiting for a car to back out of a spot. The driver was holding up traffic, there were several cars waiting behind her. The driver in the car immediately behind her swung around and zoomed by her, looking at her and saying something all the while. He was so busy being angry at her he did not see me, and if I had not been paying attention, he would have hit me. As he drove by the lack of change of expression on his face made me think he never did see me.
Sure, the first driver was inconsiderate. But the second driver was no less so. This lack of consideration and blind rage is dangerous.
