I learned today that road rage incidents are not a modern occurrance. The first recorded case of road rage is found in the Greek tragedy "Oedipus Rex", when Oedipus killed a man on the road who refused to get out of his way (this man turned out to be his father, thus making the Oracle true - Oedipus would murder his father...)
So, in an effort to remember our heritage, should we perhaps change "Road Rage" to "Oedipus Wrecks?"
