So you're heading home during rush hour and someone cuts you off or is tailgating you. What do you do? Before you decide to get verbal or physical you might want to check out www.platerage.com, a new website that lets you deal with your road-rage in a whole new way. If you're frustrated by gridlock and find that you are honking the horn, yelling profanities or even raising your fist to other drivers, you can now tell them what you think of their driving online. All you have to do is call in the license plate and vent. You can also log in and post your complaint on the website. The site even has a rage meter where your anger is rated. "Sort of like a five star, but its five middle fingers that will tell you just how angry you are at that person who was cutting you off." says Cameron Hyder, co-founder of Platerage.com.

Platerage.com has more than 600 registered road-ragers, but it's not the only website where you can vent your rage. There's also Roadragers.com, which allows you to let off some steam at other drivers or Txturcar.com, another site that lets you send a text message to drivers telling them just how bad their driving is.
