It hasn't been very long since I was that confused or worse trying to find my way around in TV, so I refuse to be angry when others screw up. I just try to help them if possible. At least she didn't hit anyone.
When I think of all the times I have made mistakes while driving, I'm thankful that none of them have caused accidents. I doubt there are many flawless drivers around. What irritates me is that a lot of people make mistakes and act like it is the other guys fault.

I applaud your attitude, Iandwk. Kindness, caution and assistance might help in some situation. Frustration, impatience and road rage cannot. Sure, I've been guilty of impatience and anger when another driver makes a mistake. But it's never done any good. I've also been guilty of making mistakes on the road. I've felt terrible, along with relieved at not causing an accident.
To my knowledge, the finger after the fact never has improve the situation.
