Der einzige Weg aus dem Schlamassel ist Gleichmut. Augen auf, Vorsicht
im wahrsten Sinn des Wortes (vorher sehen), immer mit allen Fehlern anderer
Verkehrsteilnehmer rechnen und wenn sie (mutwillig oder fahrlässig) einen
Fehler machen, ist Gleichmut das einzige Mittel, was Dir Dein Seelenheil
und Dein Leben dauerhaft sichern kann. Mein innerlicher Spruch ist inzwischen:
"Der hat in der Schule nicht aufgepaßt und jetzt muß er seine Defizite so
kompensieren". Nur so schaffe ich es, in der Situation ruhig zu bleiben und
nach kurzer Zeit habe ich die Begebenheit schon wieder vergessen.

Sorry, diese Diskussion ist noch aus dem Dezember, aber mir hat das Posting von bobthefish so gut gefallen, weil es mich an einen Text von Chuang Tzu erinnert:
THE EMPTY BOAT
He who rules men lives in confusion;
He who is ruled by men lives in sorrow.
Yao therefore desired
Neither to influence others
Nor to be influenced by them.
The way to get clear of confusion
And free of sorrow
Is to live with Tao
In the land of the great Void.
If a man is crossing a river
And an empty boat collides with his own skiff,
Even though he be a bad-tempered man
He will not become very angry.
But if he sees a man in the boat,
He will shout at him to steer clear.
If the shout is not heard, he will shout again,
And yet again, and begin cursing.
And all because there is somebody in the boat.
Yet if the boat were empty.
He would not be shouting, and not angry.
If you can empty your own boat
Crossing the river of the world,
No one will oppose you,
No one will seek to harm you.
The straight tree is the first to be cut down,
The spring of clear water is the first to be drained dry.
If you wish to improve your wisdom
And shame the ignorant,
To cultivate your character
And outshine others;
A light will shine around you
As if you had swallowed the sun and the moon:
You will not avoid calamity.
A wise man has said:
"He who is content with himself
Has done a worthless work.
Achievement is the beginning of failure.
Fame is beginning of disgrace."
Who can free himself from achievement
And from fame, descend and be lost
Amid the masses of men?
He will flow like Tao, unseen,
He will go about like Life itself
With no name and no home.
Simple is he, without distinction.
To all appearances he is a fool.
His steps leave no trace. He has no power.
He achieves nothing, has no reputation.
Since he judges no one
No one judges him.
Such is the perfect man:
His boat is empty.
