Road Rage: A Short Story

by John Benjamin Sciarra

Cases of road rage are on the rise. People die every day, some from distracted driving, others from driving too fast. With rampant unemployment, family issues, world tensions, economic and health problems to name a few, people are stressed out as never before. This is the story of two men having a very bad day. One man is an older gentleman with poor health and financial difficulties. His wife is severely ill and dependent on extra income in retirement. He needs to be at work or lose his job. Another man is having a bad day as well. He has an autistic child with special needs and mounting healthcare costs. A golden opportunity awaits...if he can get through the heavy traffic and an appointment with a wealthy client. Both men are on a collision course. Literally and figuratively.
