I love shepherd's pie!!!

Comfort food is some of my favorite. We are headed to some Irish pub-like place tonight in Maple Grove, MN that apparently has a good version of it.

I have only once used my windshield to spray someone only after they first did it to me right after I had my car washed. Had nothing to do with the speed they were driving...

Please show me an example of retribution against drivers who go to slow in the fast lane? I don't even know where you got that from.

At the time I posted those video's it is when I recording myself whenever I was driving my car so that is just a highlight of things that happened. You act as if that was my norm or something. Because yeah I just get randomly cut off and people spray me with windshield wiper fluid every single day.

Onzedge you are such an ***. On my ignore list but the only reason I saw your response was because of Apoc370z quote of your message.

To every car that hits a motorcycle and says, "I didn't see them", there has to be many more that just miss a motorcycle and say, "it's cool, there wasn't much traffic", or "I changed lanes because it was open". I cannot tell you how many times I had to jump lanes on my bike because another driver thought "there wasn't anyone there" to themselves and never saw me even well after the incident. Please be careful when operating several thousands of pounds of metal on the street.

I let my gas tank practically empty before I get gas almost every time. I drive plenty hard, and I have never experienced fuel starvation. Maybe some day I will

I don't quite understand the scenario of exiting the freeway at 25 mph and then speeding up to 50+ on the offramp, but Onz, Cyberium, and Bucketlist seem to be dead on in their assessment of the OP.

I should make a video of me chucking pennies out the sun roof while going 100mph on the freeway.

Oh wait.. We dont have sunroofs....

Great thing about Germany - Serious road rage gets you a visit with the Polizei and possibly a visit to a shrink. Then you also might lose your license and driving privilege as well. Germans will absolutely call road rage in and then you get the inquiry from the Polizei.

The OP wouldnt last a week here.

I have heard about it too, I have also been told that you can get tickets on the freeways, EVEN THE NURBURGRING for passing on the right side, LOL

That sunroof looks like a food tray was attached to some brackets and plopped on the Z.

Hey, I didn't say I liked it. But you could definitely accomplish throwing pennies out the sunroof with it

Passing on the right is a major not good thing to do. I dont miss the stuff I read here about driving in the US at all.
