Is cursing at an errant parker really a sign of mental illness, or just of bad manners?

The state Supreme Court ordered a psychiatric exam Thursday for a judge accused of violating the state judicial code by cursing at Detroit Deputy Mayor Anthony Adams when he parked in a spot reserved for judges.

Perhaps the exam was ordered because this wasn't Judge David Bradfield's first angry encounter in a parking lot.

The retired judge [who investigated Bradfield] also concluded that Bradfield committed misconduct in October 2002 when he became hostile with a parking attendant.

    Weird - I wonder how common it is for judges to get really upset about this. I don't usually do trials, but when I did my first one last year, the judge (who's generally a great guy) started out the day REALLY REALLY ANGRY because a police officer had taken his parking spot. It was a very unpleasant day... (And it wasn't the first time he'd gotten mad because someone had parked in his spot)
