Dear Sir,
I apologize for honking my horn at you. Clearly it ruined your day. However, I would like to take a moment to explain my reason to you. You see, you were backing out of a parking spot into oncoming traffic. I was that oncoming traffic and you might have hit me had I not stopped.
My act of stopping while you continued your foolish act of backing up into oncoming traffic was not permission for you to continue being stupid, but was instead an act of self-preservation. The honking of my car horn was merely to inform you that there were cars behind you and you ought to have waited before backing up.
Getting out of your car in all of a huff to demand what the [redacted] was my problem was absolutely unnecessary. To put it succintly, my problem was you and the fact that you ought not to have backed into oncoming traffic - namely, me!
I am not sure what you thought you might accomplish by screaming obscenities at a young mother with a baby in the car. Did you expect me to get out of my car? I'm not that foolish. You, however, are a great big meanie.
I hope the rest of your day was better.
Sincerely,
A Polite Driver Who Only Uses Her Horn For Self-Preservation
P.S. Thank you, Mr. Big Intimidating Guy for walking toward us. You didn't even have to open your mouth. The mere two or three steps you took in our direction promptly ended the "confrontation".
