On the way back from a car show feeling all nice and enjoying the day... for once .. going the speed limit. Then POW MS SUV flips blinker for a mega second and almost takes off my front end. THEN slamms on the breaks as if to prove some sorta big vehicle point. WTF!!!! WHY ARE THERE NEVER EVER POLICE AROUND FOR REAL STUPID DRIVERS!!!!!! then she fades across three lanes and pops in the slow lane.... doesn't even exit, wasn't on a cell phone.... SO who's ever wife or g/f that was... she deserves to have her fingers burned on the stove. end rant.
breaks = brakes I feel you on that one, happens to me alot Sucks man I usually go to wendy's and get a frosty to chill me off
lol, Kyle and I were down in the cities on Thursday and were commenting on the idiot drivers who put their blinker on DURING lanechanges, not before.
Yeah, it's kind of like when I punch people in the face and tell them to look out at the exact same time.
I've noticed a recent increase in stupid drivers over the past week. I think it's because I've been working at different times and there are "safe" times and "crappy" times to drive anywhere. Handsdown, the biggest thing that bugs me is when someone cuts me off, slows down, then the person behind me feels the need to tailgate me so I have to get closer to the assface that cut me off. *bad word that I would get points for dodging" them and their couch. And I need my subaru back so I can tell all the little ricer kids they aren't fast. Sorry, /rant. :laugh:
Heading down to Iowa for a race with 5 friends, each driving swingers style in our own vehicle, we ran into one horrible driver. Our buddy towing his Exige in an enclosed trailer behind an F350 was nearly cutoff by this clown in a Pontiac Torrent. She did the whole lane change, then look over shoulder and then weave recklessly back into her own lane. Thought that was the end of her, but then she did some kind of Smokey and the Bandit brake/lane change deal and cutoff another friend of ours. Having walkie talkies we decided to block her out for a few miles at about 60 (in a 70 zone). As she reached her boiling point she decided that the shoulder was a good place to pass at 70mph. This angered me because it was so reckless...and in a brief moment of unclarity I decided to gun it and tail her for a bit (bit of her own medicine). Once the adrenaline subsided, I backed off. We then called the St Trooper, but she exited shortly thereafter...so nothing came of it. Bad drivers make me want to scream.
I ended up stuck behind some dumb (insert creative expletive here, I sure did) on my way to a rescue call today. Lights, Sirens and Air Horns weren't doing the trick so I ended up passing on the shoulder. Needless to say, we got her attention that way. I wanted to take an axe to their car but I was a tad preoccupied at the moment. I think we should get ram bumpers on the trucks...You don't move, we'll move you instead.
^ lol. I also have noticed an increase in the REALLY close lane changes. I have had atleast 1 close 1 everyday for the past week or so. the kind where you think they are going to take out your fender. some people are just clueless to what is happening around them. this was awhile ago but on 694, i was heading towards the 494 S exit in the left lane going 5-10 mph over, and this chick in a blue avalanche decides its a good idea to move into my lane. well i layed on the supertones. ya know i thought 80+ DB at 50Hz would wake her up. but nope she kept on moving over and forced me onto the shoulder, without even knowing. thank goodness there was a large shoulder, or else it would have been concrete median for me. i followed her for about a mile holding the horn then passed her (as she was going slower than i was to start with) when she got the clue. GGR!R!!!!!
