The arising of arrogance I'd like to share a situation that happened to me and brought me a question about this arising of arrogance.

I was driving and another driver got mad at me for a not-so-correct maneuver I did. At first I felt a bit uncomfortable for making him angry, but quickly I felt more compassion for the fact that he was feeling anger than any other un wholesome state of mind. 

Until a bit of arrogance arose, when a thought appeared: I was able to feel in peace even though the situation, while he let that unrest him and feel anger.

Is that arising of this kind of arrogance usual? How could I meditate upon it or think about the causes and consequences of it? The problem I have is that I do feel sometimes like I'm in a better path to happiness (that is buddhism) than others but that makes this arrogance appear.
The feeling of pride is okay in the sense that it is conditioned so long as you do not act following that feeling.

That you are able to notice the arising of the feeling shows some mindfulness and restraint.

Conceit is one of the 10 fetters to be abandoned by an Anagami, the last stage of the practice.

So long as you are not holding on to that pride or perpetuating it you are doing fine.

To stop pride &amp; conceit from arising don't compare!
