This is a true statement, I think generalizing is wrong, but then again there is some truth to it.

However, don't hate the car hate the driver .

although not all douche bags drive Bemers or are all Bemer drivers are douche bags there is a disproportionate amount of douche bags driving Bemers.

Here's a joke that I've heard about BMW drivers:

Whats the difference between a porcupine and a BMW?
The prick is in the inside of the BMW.

But don't get me wrong, I don't really find most BMW drivers (that I've seen) to be pricks or anything close to that. Driving in glendale, most of them are friendly. Always traded thumbs up everytime I played cat-mouse with them.

I've never typically noticed any BMW drivers driving any worse than any other brand of driver

A good friend of mine says he hates them

I'm sure people say I suck

To me it seems like ram 1500 drivers are the worst... something about that truck really attracts the douches

Well, when 7 out of every 10 trucks in town is a Dodge 1500.... it's bound to happen. Especially here in Oiltown. Money + Young Kids + Rig Work + "I own the world" Entitlement = douche

LOL honestly yes there is some truth to it, its mostly 335i drivers... my cars not a DD but everytime i do drive it, those guys think they need to prove something so they always rev the hell out of their engines or are always on my ***...

and thats how it should be, i dont think anyone needs to prove anything to anyone, at the end of the day, people drive the cars they drive cuz they want to drive it, so we should just respect everyones choice in cars and throw them a thumbs up if you like what you see!

Fewer people let me merge into traffic lines. They'll usually just ride the *** of the guy in front of them and have tunnel vision looking forward. Other than that I haven't had too much trouble.

I do that to just about everyone though, regardless of cars, when it's in rush hour. Moving over from the slow lane to the fast lane (or middle) isn't going to do **** for you when we're all moving 15mph. You're just putting me one car further back damn it!

Then again, I've had so many people force their ways in, cut me off and not even apologize (a wave will do), cut me off and then get mad at me, because they cut me off... I say **** it, I'm no longer showing anyone any respect on the roadways.

Obviously that's when they or someone else upset me. I forget easily and usually do.

Though I hate when the person in front of me STOPS and lets someone in. Don't stop, ever, I don't care if we're going 15mph.

Yea for real. Although I fit the bill of some of those things... Young and here in oil town for work but I don't drive like a douche at all, I try and ignore the ram 1500s trying to race me all the time. Sometimes it really irritates me though

You can probably already guess what I am about to say here, but its nothing really too extreme. This dude in a new M3 with a loud exhaust was trying to coax me into an impromptu drag race on PCH. Of course I don't bite since I regularly track my car so there is no need for me to speed on public roads, but it made me think about a$$hole-idiots like him. The ones who think they are great drivers with fast cars because they are willing to go 100+ mph on a public road (most of the time in a straight line). I often feel like telling them that they should head to the track to see how fast and talented they really are, but it isn't worth enough for me to engage people in that manner. So I, like in this situation, ignore the a$$hole-idiot and look forward to my next track day on 10/15 where I am sure there will be a host of M3 drivers just like him who can't seem to live up to all that talent they believe/wish they had.

The roads are FILLED with people who own more car/motorcycle than they could ever hope to drive/ride competently....to drive/ride the way the car/motorcycle was intended to be driven/ridden.

It's even worse in the realm of streetbikes....next time you see a GSX-R 1000 or an R1 take a look at the rear tire....I'd bet it's got chicken strips an inch and a half wide on both sides and a flat spot worn right down the middle.

Lots of "show"....tooling around town looking "cool" and hammering it in a straight line....or hanging around the local Sonic or coffee shop.....but very little "go"....actually putting the car/bike on the track and learning to DRIVE/RIDE it..they are street legal race cars/bikes being used to "pose" with in a lot of cases. *shrug*

Everyone is entitled to spend their money how they see fit...but...it does look pretty silly.
