I drive in a manner such that I minimize wear & tear on my car and use less gas to save money. If there is a red traffic light ahead of me, I'll coast slowly so that it turns green right as I approach it. But most people in my town me drive super aggressively and speed as fast as they can to the red light and then slam on their breaks.
But then at the grocery store these same insane aggressive drivers become slugs. They waddle slowly through the store with blank zombie expressions on their faces. Barely moving, taking up space. It gets so bad that I want to scream "GET OUT OF MY WAY YOU ZOMBIE SLUGS!!!!!"
And the back on the road again these waddling zombie slugs suddenly become aggressive fast drivers. It's so f*cing weird.
So you're stalking aggressive drivers to monitor how fast they walk in the grocery store, then follow them back out to the parking lot and drive behind them again? You might want to re-examine who has a problem in this situation.

I adhere a GPS tracking device to the zombie slugs which enables me to monitor them remotely from the safety and comfort of my own homestead.
I drive slow, easy, and safe. I walk fairly briskly. In an urban city environment, I adjust and drive a little more aggressively.
I am not prone to road rage.
I know people who get triggered and yell and cuss every time they drive. These people project their expectations of trivial rules in their head onto the world and constantly get pissed off. It must suck to be in their head.

Man, I wish this hadn't turned into a troll thread. It's a good opportunity to highlight the (sometimes) inhumanity of modern human life. As anyone who has watched mob movies known, the way to break someone is not to do things to them but to make them do things to other people. What is it about driving that turns all these otherwise mild-mannered people into aggressive jerks?
Our roads in many ways are a microcosm of our troubled society. Driving is dangerous, inefficient, and expensive. It hurts our health and pollutes our air. It puts each of us into our own world, makes us angry and irrational, and pits us against everyone else. Yet, driving, or at least regular exposure to other people driving, is absolutely necessary to live anything close to a normal life.
But rather than bemoan this or fight to change it, the natural human response is to do the opposite. We embrace driving and imbue it with romance. Fast cars, giant pick-ups, the open road. Cars are a symbol of power and freedom, although the irony is that we have neither the freedom nor the power to live any other way. Overall, this is probably a healthy response; rather than tilting at windmills, it is better to fully live the life we're given. But on a systemic level it means the problem gets more and more entrenched.
The funny thing is that I too love cars, or at least I love the feeling of the wheel in my hand, of zipping past someone in the left lane, of climbing over mountains or of pushing the pedal on the open road, even the feeling of having the light turn green just as I'm about to slow down. But I also realize, and I think we all do to some extent, that our culture of driving is broken, and just like the zombies the OP saw in the grocery store, we don't have the will or even the energy to imagine a different world.

Nothing is more infuriating to me than people who drive like aggressive maniacs. I fairly often witness people honking at the car in the front of the line at a traffic light when the light turns green. Literally no more than 1 second has elapsed since the light turned green; barely more than enough time for them to take their foot off the break and start going.
I witnessed a guy the other day slam on his horn and yell out his window at the car in front of him, this happened in a busy wal-mart parking lot and the person in front of him was slightly confused at a weird intersection (they had the right of way to make a left hand turn, but oncoming traffic had a stop sign).
People riding my a** when I'm already doing 10-15 over constantly, I could go on and on. Doesn't help that DC is continuously expanding outward, turning my once small town into a suburban hellhole.
OP...are you following these people out of the grocery store or vice versa?
- Almost EVERYONE in the town that I live in drive like maniacs. Like meth heads competing in a monster truck show. Burning through fuel as if they had the money to pay for it.
- Almost EVERYONE in the town that I live in, when out of their vehicles and ambulating around, are sleepy slothful slugs.
- Thus, the vehicular maniacs are indeed the ambulating slugs, one and the same.

I crave these moments. I love when someone gets up right behind me, allows me an easy counter of driving even slower. I used to get uncomfortable and feel angry about it now it’s fun and brightens up my day a little bit. It’s not my fault you failed to give yourself enough time to get where you need to go. Plan better next time and obey the rules of the road.

Need more info to corroborate. I think you really need more tracking devices
Yeah I'm sick of slow drivers and selfish drivers leisurely clogging up the road and making low IQ driving choices collectively and causing traffic jams. An idiot can get a license. Also sick and tired of the slugs and fatties casually clogging walking up the path that drivers take. Then if an idiot honks his horn at me for a stupid reason, I may chase him down. After aggressively pounding the horn, he or she will proceed to hide , cower and act like I'm the crazy one. Funny how their tone changes when they are confronted. Like a typical weak bully-- sneak up from behind and attack the vulnerable then cower when the alpha comes hunting them.
Anybody who refers to theirself as "alpha" is probably delusional.
