Cat’s Chat: Road Rage

Cat's Chat Bubble

By Cathi Coppinger

A new study came up with a bunch of stats about when Americans are driving ANGRY.  They analyzed more than 65,000 Instagram posts that used the hashtag “#roadrage.”  Whatever that’s worth.  My husband prefers to call it “road annoyance” and boy does he own it!

  1. Road rage peaks at 6:00 P.M., and it’s second-worst at 5:00 P.M.
  2. There’s more road rage in August than any other month.  July is second, and April and May have the least.
  3. Friday has the most road rage of any day.  Sunday has the least.
  4. Hawaii has more road rage than any other state, by far.  California is second, and New York is third.
  5. And Los Angeles has the most road rage of any city, followed by New York.  Coming in third . . . randomly . . . is Mount Pleasant, North Carolina.
