they never let you change lanes. when you have your blinker on they speed up. i finally got a space after trying for damn near forever, bmw in the right lane was going faster than me but I had over 50 feet while i started to change lanes. i always let people in and if it looks like someone needs to change lanes, especially near an exit, i slow down

get this, he gasses it WHILE im starting to move over, then slams on the brakes because he has no time to stop since he wanted to zoom past me making me miss my exit

so this asshole slams on his horn for like three seconds straight, and i give him a nice finger, and he made a really nasty expression, i made that stupid fucking faggots day

exit was coming up soon, already tried to gas it to get ahead of the guy next to me, guy in front of me (looked like an undercover cop) slowed down, guy beside me just sped up even with my blinker on. mom was in the car too, with some groceries. so i didnt really want to try that again when i had about 300-400 feet left, this isnt the interstate though

people dont know how to fucking drive

i will frequently do this to tailgaters, i never clog up the left lane, so when theyre just being a silly jerk i always take extra time

hmm thats funny

long line at the red light the other day, UPS truck driver honked me like four times for no damn reason (I think I didn't gas it to travel 50 feet fast enough), so next time it moved up another 50 feet I just let the car sit there

Buy a Suburban.

sounds like you're the bad driver


-- Posted by Gonzalo at 7:42 am on June 18, 2008

You're not supposed to use blinkers, they give away your next move


-- Posted by espresso8097 at 8:47 am on June 18, 2008

IT does not get too much better in midwest suburbia or the city.  Just a little bit better.

You think that's bad, try driving the turnpike everyday and getting cut off by pale green geo-metro with a Nova Scotia Liscense plate

Try driving down here. There is a zoo load of SUV's all around with Crazy soccer mom's in their Tahoes and Suburbans and Sequoia's all beeping on their Nextel or beating their kids while driving 80MPH in a 60 zone. I am just happy when I little car try's to cut me off and I am in my Tahoe I don't let them over.

Not when drunk hillbillies can't drive haha. It's funny to see idiots try to figure out a 6 lane interstate coming from a 1 or 2 lane country road. Not nearly as bad as NYC where I used to live though

New York drivers are NUTS

I have been to New York (city and state) and can vouch for that.

worst is NY plates + SUV + luxury

If your not going fast enough in chicago, they will pass you on the shoulder apparently...

People + Groceries I can understand not wanting to get to 'road raged'. Yes some drivers are just dicks like that.

Reminds me of this one time a guy got onto a two-lane in front of me, [It was about 1am] was going wayyy under the speed limit so I was kind of riding his ass because I hate people who go rediculously under the limit. Needless to say he had the bright idea to brake check me. I gave him quite the nudge with my car, needless to say I was driving this...

Also I was in full uniform, though off duty and on my way home... Thought the guy was gonna crap his pants when he saw me get out of the car. I only hit him at about 10mph, more to make a point for him being a douchebag.

If anyone wonders why I didn't just pass him, it was a double-yellow kinda hilly two-lane, passing isn't easy plus illegal (not that hitting a car isn't...)

The guy didn't do anything, as there was no damage... and i'm pretty sure he was a little bit lit.

he might have recognized your car, some people know what a cop car looks like even in the dark and are paranoid so they go really slow.


-- Posted by victoria4951ct at 1:15 am on June 20, 2008

You think it's bad over there? Try Miami, Florida..the worst drivers ever!!

Not as likely, Impala squads are relatively rare here. Crown vics are EVERYWHERE. Plus in the dark, its pretty difficult to determine, as the outline of the car looks normal if you ever get a glimse of it... I suppose its vaugly possible... but still why would you brake check a car you THINK is a cop? Thats just asking for it.

To help show that even Midwesterners can be complete dumb asses I have a story from Tuesday night.

I was heading home from some place (can't remember) but I was heading East on Rt. 31 (not that that matters to you) and I cam up on a rusted out Suzuki Samurai who was consistently going 5-10mph under in a 45mph zone.  I ride kind of close behind him, just under a second, almost considered normal around here in busy traffic.  Well when it opened up to two lanes he sat in the left lane and I moved over into the now right lane and sped up to the speed limit.

This guy being a real jerk decides he did not like his ass being ridden for going far under the speed limit then swerves over into the right lane missing me by feet.  I had time to just downshift 2 gears and get over into the left.  Once ~200ft in front of him and him staying back he speeds up, well, I brake checked the fucker and he nearly lost control.  Since I was going to stop for gas two blocks ahead I decided to lose this guy.

Made a quick right at the next road which winds pretty rapidly a few times (Now is when having fun on gravel roads translates into real use), got the Accent going nice and sideways.  He was 2 turns behind be so I make the final move to lose him and turn into a court (has building in middle so can hide).  Came around and he was nowhere near close.

And that is what happens when people in IL get pissed for going far under the speed limit.

Works for me and my truck isn't even a full size SUV.


-- Posted by iconoclast at 11:08 am on June 20, 2008

people cut me off and abused me much less even when i drove a small pickup

might have been because i was always ahead of the pack at 20-25 over the limit though : )
