How many of you are....

Re: How many of you are....

haha funny this thread comes up... Me and my dad discussed stuff like this from midnight till 2:30 in the morning yesterday lol..

Biggest petpeeves:
1. People not stopping at stopsigns (i mess with them and start going if i have the right of way just to scare em a bit, then they'll stop, flick me off, and i continue on my way)

2. People that drive with their turn signals on... and never turn

3. The guy that cut me off today on a narrow 2 lane street

4. driving between cleveland and toledo on the turnpike for school. People are seriously stupid. Speed limit is 65, and i find myself passing in the far right lane just so i can go 70.

the list goes on and on but i think i should stop now... but rest assured, im driving back to school tomorrow and i WILL have more ranting to do

edit: This type of topic pisses me off.. Its one of those threads that everything someone else says makes me think of my own experiences and all i want to do is rant. Much of my time will be spent here for the life of this thread

Re: How many of you are....

I drive down the road, if I see someone has the oppurtunity to **** me over by cutting me over or not letting me in. THEY DO IT.

If I'm gonna cut someone off, like if I my signal on, and they speed up to keep me from getting in front of them. They have 2 options, hit my car, or slow down. Because if they want me to or not I'm coming over. Although I only do this if they are purposely being a dickhole and can't pass the car infront of them.

If someones gonna cut me off, and they have their turn signal on, 99% of the time I let them over, because I'm grateful they atleast signaled. If I can tell by the way they're driving, they're gonna cut me off without signaling, then they have 2 options. Hit my car, or back the f*ck off and get behind me.

Ironically, I'm a much more relaxed driver when I drive the stang. I can easily out manuver and out accelerate almost anyone in traffic. Now if I'm in the geo on the otherhand, I drive like a complete jackass. I may not be able to pass anyone, but I can sure as hell easily **** block people by holding up traffic if people are trying to cut me off without signaling.

As you can see, I am MUCH nicer to drivers who actually signal. My BIGGEST pep peeve is people who don't use their f*cken turn signals. :mad:

Re: How many of you are....

Florida has horrid drivers. People run the stop signs CONSTANTLY in the mall(s). The interstate is pretty bad too, you can be going 75 (speed limit 70) and it'll feel like you're sitting still. Cops speed on there constantly too, had one pass me the other day doing like 85, while I'm doing 70.

Re: How many of you are....

The other day i cut someone off. It was completely by accident, as some of you know there are massive blind spots in a convertible. I was merely attempting to merge onto a freeway... didn't see this woman in a jeep, and cut her off. She honked her displeasure, and i kinda felt bad, but not for long, because she then came flying up the inside and precedes to cut me off! Kind of an immature move.. and quite frankly i was shocked, most drivers in cali have absolutely no balls what so ever, and this woman was willing to risk her life just to prove a point... amazing. Ha, and to top it all off she had her daughter in the passenger seat!

No not really, so long as you're not being an jackass first.

75? dude you go 80 in a 70 and you are the slowest car on the road...


I love 595, in ft. lauderlade. average speed is 75-85. And the speed limit is 55


thing is though, the person that is dangerous on the road, is the person following the speed limit. I know it sounds wrong, there are more problems in traffic when there is a big gap in the speed people are traveling then if everyone is driving at the same high speed.

Re: How many of you are....

Yeah I know going the speed limit can be dangerous lol, but some cops can be a pain in the *** sometimes and even if everyone on the road is going 80, they'll pull over the college kid in a Camaro just because. Can't afford a ticket either, so I'll keep it near the limit heh.

Re: How many of you are....

In FL, we call them snowbirds, because 99% of them are from the north :poke:

Heh heh. Suckers. :p

You shouldn't call them snowbirds, you should call them geriatrics, and I say, keep shipping the elders down there! :)

It's def. true though. I've been in and around a lot of the east coast states for vaca's and other various trips, and I swear FL is the absolute worst place for driving. I'm less stressed driving thru the streets of Boston near rush hour.
