Road rage and or mass stabbing on a Virginia highway after an accident

[WhatInThe]

Probably a road rage incident but there was a mass stabbing after an accident on a Virginia highway. Reports of shots fired.

Mass stabbing outside D.C. on beltway, shots fired

BREAKING: I-495 south shut down in Annandale following reports of mass stabbing

That's a real bad case of road rage if someone can stab multiple people.

Peace

We lived inside the Beltway for five years, just a few miles from Annandale. I didn't drive once during that time, always took the bus. I'm surprised they don't have a road rage incident every day.

We lived both inside it (Arlington) and then outside it (Centreville/Manassas), and I too am surprised they don't have a road rage incident every day.

I used to take turns driving in a carpool from Centreville into the heart of DC. I think I lasted about 8 weeks before my nerves were so shot I quit and went back to the train/subway/bus.

Seems like more and more of random stabbings and people unable to control their rage over the smallest of things.
I am not sure what is causing so many to lose their marbles

drugs.. proliferation of drugs.... alcohol..again.. so many people drinking not just in the evenings, but now during the day as well.. loads of women doing the school run..drunk at 8am.. see it all on youtube police stopping drunk or drugged drivers early in the mornings.. and they're lashing out at the police..

Then there's all the additives in food.. and even soft drinks.. which I'm sure is affecting people adversely...

The road rager wound up killing a woman and his own dog. Side swiped some of the victims before he went on the rampage. Witness/victim said the killer went absolutely crazy. The killer was a state department employee

‘Terrified': Mother, daughter say man sideswiped them before 495 stabbing rampage

Doesn't even seem like an accident but suicide by cop.

RIP victim

All of the above and then we can move on to the stressors of modern life combined with the prevalence of mental health issues that causes.

I don't know if food additives are relevant, but you're definitely correct about drugs and alcohol.

If there is ever a place for any kind of rage, its DC. People are not treated as humans, just show up, get the job done. After time depending on your brain set, people there pop. It's a scary place to be much less work. One of my friends, a Naval Commander at the Pentagon, just couldn't do it anymore, and in his fifties, jumped off the Severn River bridge breaking his back and taking his life. Left 2 boys grown and his wife who was my best friend.
Not a good place to go.

well you only have to watch the behavior of children when they are given food high in additives..often lovely children turn into raging, crying temper tantrumed little beasts after eating sweets that are full of additives and colouring and E numbers

I absolute agree 100 %
