[00:22.80]Road Rage
[00:30.84]公路的怒气
[00:41.84]I married recently and moved to the Pittsburgh area
[00:45.72]to be closer to work.
[00:48.08]I hate driving and traffic and the like,
[00:50.97]so it was welcome change to live closer.
[00:54.92]I'm a self-professed aggressive driver.
[00:57.94]At least, I used to be.
[01:00.54]The road on which I travel to go to work
[01:02.88]would immediately bring to mind haunting imagery;
[01:07.77]a dark, twisting road in the thick of a well-forested area.
[01:13.20]So it came as no surprise to me
[01:15.71]when I learned from one of the locals
[01:18.09]of a legend circulating about that road.
[01:22.05]It came to be that I was heading into work early
[01:26.39](as I often do, as Pittsburgh traffic is crazy).
[01:30.42]It was dark out yet, cloudy, no moon, and extremely quiet.
[01:36.30]I'd had a strange feeling since I'd woken up that morning...
[01:40.45]like the feeling you get right
[01:42.43]after you've seen a great horror movie;
[01:46.05]you know it's fiction...
[01:47.51]but you still avoid mirrors for a while
[01:50.09]just in case there really IS something there.
[01:54.20]I headed out and arrived at the road in short order.
[01:58.81]This road is a two-lane one-way road,
[02:02.73]so there is no oncoming traffic for the stretch of it.
[02:06.76]Since it was early,
[02:08.07]I decided 1 to keep towards the center of the road.
[02:11.69]Deer abound 2 in this part of town,
[02:14.18]and I had no desire to hit one.
[02:17.06]It was really dark and some fog had gathered.
[02:20.52]I put on my high beams so I could see a little better.
[02:24.72]I heard a car somewhere behind me,
[02:27.30]but couldn't follow it because of the bends and the trees.
