I have several friends that I ride with and sometimes they just get so pissed off. I, on the other hand, hardly ever get pissed off. In fact, I've had some drivers cut me off or do some really stupid things. I didn't even honk.

No, it is not a "condition". I saw that headline on Yahoo where it said it was a medical condition that affects like 63% of all Americans. It reminds me of the South Park where people tell the dude's dad he's an alcoholic. He completely gives up trying to stop drinking so much, keeps claiming "I have a disease! Give me another beer!". Soon someone is going to say murder is a disease and the people who kill can't help it.

Road rage is a condition that may be helped by learning different ways to express anger for many people.

That is an interesting question. It does seem like all sorts of rages are on the rise. I read an interesting article about the increasing of rage, you might be interested in reading it as well.

It is good that you don't get all worked up. It is so bad for a person physically to allow themselves to get that angry.

No it's not a condition. It's how people react to certain situations. Most of the time, it's just a result of people having a crappy day.

It's a personality thing. Some people get upset easily in certain situations and others don't.
If it's extreme, anger management could help.

It is a mental condition like alcoholism, depression, bipolar disorder, etc.
Be careful around people with this condition. I carry a camera in my car, just in case.

Road rash is a condition. And it's rather painful.
