It is true because some decision you may regret after you calm down

Oops...I've done the driving off thing when I've been angry and/or upset. Usually in such situations I felt like I had no other option as I had been told to "go away" or "get out" which is not a positive experience. Still doing over 100km/hr is not good either and I'm lucky I and no one else was killed.

Well it depends on the person. I left a job when I was so so angry. Best thing I ever did yippee
