Now I care about my car and I'll do what I can to avoid damaging it, but I also do so in a way where I'm not inconveniencing others. I've also been on the other end of someone slowing to 5mph to go through a dip when coming off the highway. Not only do people miss the turn signal because of these dicks (even if you're not in a hurry, everyone has felt the frustration of missing one due to the incompetence of another driver), they're also causing an unsafe scenario by purposely going slower than the speed of normal traffic. So no, the behavior is not justified just because your car is precious to you. A little empathy for your fellow driver goes a long way. These are not your private road ways.

Not sure if you are directing those insults at me, I sure hope not. The worst way to drive is frustrated, so if you get behind the wheel and are upset over missing a turn signal or green light, maybe you need some therapy, or a less stressful job. Either way, not entirely sure what the issue is. I will do <5 turning off a four lane street (two going in my direction) when anyone can just as easily get around me, but choose to ram their car up my cars bumper while cursing, honking, and flipping me off.
Not sure what people have done to you in the past, but what I'm describing is hardly that...and yes, you will wait for my car to turn or progress at poorly paved intersections, potholes, uneven shopping mall entrances, speed bumps...At some of these places I even do this in my other cars (DD)because the roads are in such bad condition, but I care that I don't destroy my cars...others may not, but they are not MY problem...If the road is in good shape, no way I'm slowing down in the Z
