There are a lot of rude drivers out there. Here's the story of one of them.
This weekend we were driving around town in Katy's minivan, on our way down to her folks for the weekend. We needed to swing by a friend's house on the way to the freeway and I was sitting in a left turn lane waiting for the
arrow.
The green arrow came up and about a half a second later I hear it.
Beep
Anemic sounding, yes - but you've undoubtedly heard what passes for a car horn these days. I glance in my rear view mirror and see a car behind me. I said something like "in a hurry?" and waved to the driver behind us. (Kill them with kindness, I say.) As I cleared the intersection I beeped my horn a couple times just to be obnoxious.
We pulled up to a stop sign and proceeded through. The following car was turning right, and as she did, we heard it again.

Now what the Sam Hill is going on here? Why is this lady honking at me? I shook my head and muttered something unkind under my breath (the kids were in the back seat).
It wasn't until later that we realized the beeping had not been coming from another car, but from something in the back of our own car - This.
Oh man. I'm the rude driver.
