In my case i was already going 7 over on one of the busiest streets in the IE and came up on me like i wasnt moving. I mean 9-10 cars in a couple seconds. As for the left lane slow traffic stuff believe me i know i grew up in the north midwest where people actually know how to drive compared to down here where blinkers are almost ******* optional, the right lane is for passing, everyone is out to get ahead of everyone else, and sleeping at the light is like some kind of sport. Dont get me started on the guys how cali roll a right turn on red when there are cars making a ******* u turn in front of them. Right of way is not something you decide it is ******* rule you were supposed to learn in drivers ed. I have been driving for 8-9 years now and have never been in an accident. I seriousley was pissed when i moved here and my car insurance more than doubled and now after a year and a half i know why.

I just came up with a great idea, give me back my right to own w/e gun i want, but permanently take the drivers license from anyone who causes an accident that results in the hospitalization, maming, or death of another person, or who causes more than $120,000 in damages in an accident.

I give the bad drivers and finger awards to taxi drivers.

If you carry a gun, do not ever give the finger.

1slow370 07-29-2014 11:26 AM

I would never carry one on me in my car because if you drive through pomona or a couple other areas and get pulled over you will be harassed that's just how it's gonna be.

some loser in a saturn gave me the finger even though i let him in front of me in my lane
at a merge.

i was kinda confused about that one. he mustve been mad at himself while i was enjoying my life in my Z. :D

I lost my cool on sunday driving on a divided highway in my Z. I was following this car for a solid hour or so on my way back to the city when out of nowhere it decides to pour out a full cup of what I assume to be pop. I got the mist of it all over the front of my car. After just paying quite a bit of money to get it detailed I went off the rails and he got both birds a couple times. I got right up and close to him so he could see how upset I was and then he tried to brake check me which only upset me more.

I rarely get that upset, but when someone throws something out of their window and it hits my car its game on. He wouldnt make eye contact with me when I got up beside him which did help cool me down a little.

Either way I think that was the second time since I started driving that I flipped the bird. You have to really go out of your way or do someone like that to get to me.

Looking back on it now I probably overreacted but there was a mist of liquid all over the front of my car.

mitco - in the US, tossing tragectory out the window of a car can land you in jail. that said, i would definitely report it to police next time. :D

Yeah I probably should have. Was just pretty rattled at the time and it was right before my exit. At that rate I would have been equally in trouble for driving like a douche around him to make my point known that I was very unhappy.

JARblue 07-29-2014 03:56 PM

Just yesterday I had someone speed through a yield sign to cut me off and then immediately turn left. He was giving me the bird the entire way :icon14:

I just sped around him with a squeal of the tires to thank him for his disrespectful maneuver.

nah they have to throw it at you not dump it and you drive through it. If he had pitched a soda backhand towards you then maybe. He may have gotten litering but if he didn't dump the cup too they might not get him for liquids.

that sucks though i would have followed him and asked for 5 bucks for a touchless so the acid doesn't kill your paint. edit: 50-50 if i would have flipped him off, just detailed yeah i probably would have, spend a couple hundred bucks cleaning a car so some douche can pitch a big gulp on it.

I have had the one finger salute to me on 3 occasions. It's the asstards that block traffic in the left lane. Move the eff over and let me by. These self righteous a holes chap my hide. After I get the finger from them I blow them a kiss and then it's ta ta.

brandonb370 07-29-2014 08:20 PM

I normally substitute the finger for a "jacking off" motion. Followed by some dancing and trolling. No need to get pissed at drivers. :)

Hear hear, that **** doesn't happen in Europe. If you're blocking the passing lane they'll let you know until you move. Then they'll let you know what a **** bag you are as they drive by, and so will every person after them that was held up.

It's a self regulating system once you have enough people on board.

Hell the rule even applies to things like escalators and other pedestrian walk ways. There's always a space left specifically for people who need to pass by. This is true for every country I've been too EXCEPT the US.
