Just curious on what you guys go through day in and day out and the stupid clowns out there that drag you down:

My Example:

I was driving my grandma home. She likes to chill in the back seat. I exit the freeway and am getting close to her house. As I am driving this teenage white kid tool in a old ass VW pulls up next to me and starts hooting and hollering. Like "WOOOOOOOOOOOO" and "VROOOOOM-VROOOOMMM!" My grandma asked me "what is that guy doing?" I didn't answer her and continued to drive. Needless to say I was fuming. For a good two miles this jackass was doing this and I just looked ahead. I had a pounding headache and this moron made it even worse.

I pull into her street and the guy sticks his head out the window and gives me one last "WOOOOOOOOOO" and proceeds straight I pull into the driveway, take her stuff out of the trunk, say good bye, and go after the clown.. this time.. no granny in the car. I pull out and what do i see? Numb-nuts at the stop light. I pull up next to him and roll down my window. No more hooting.. no more hollering.. quite and he's trying to ignore me.

I scream out "Hey! You got a problem?" He turns to me and has this scared look on his face and he all of a sudden had the stutters." Uhmm.. Uhhh.. No I dont. I then said,"Why the hell were you screaming and hollering at me for? Why dont you pull that piece of sh%t over and we can have a little talk." He stutters some more "No.. Uhhh.. I was just saying you have a nice car.." I said,"Bullsh$t don't you ever disrespect my grandma or me ever again. You're lucky I dont get out of this mutherf%^er right now and kick your ass." I hear a "I'm sorry! I'm sorry! I didn't mean it like that!" Light turns green and I give him a "thats what I thought you little bi%ch!", I then made a U-Turn and went home.

I am in no way proud of this incident and probably shouldnt have done it but I was pretty livid. Headache+idiots=Bad Situation

-I am curious to see what you guys go through. If you get jackasses like this guy i had...

-People who don't signal

-Dumb ricers weaving WITHOUT signal, riding their brakes (Brakes = lack of skill)
-Minivans in the left lane
-Slower traffic not staying to the right
-When you have two turn lanes, and the people in one turn lane turn into the other turn lane during the turn.
-People who don't signal
-Cabs (NYC problem mainly)
-Rubberneckers
-The law*

ur presence on the road, as well as everyone else's pisses me off

mnkybiznes · 09-03-2008, 08:52 AM

driver's too busy talking on their cell phone to pay attention to their driving.
women drivers ..... is it me or do they seem to be the wreckless ones??
people who don't use their turn signals.
tail gaters ........ bubba in the 4x4.
people driving with their brights on.
ricers who try to "impress".
people who ride their brakes ...... constantly.
smokers flicking their cigarette butts out .......... sometimes flying off the hood of my car.

Ok ........... I think that's it for today

Sounds like Typical VA/DC commute to me. All of the above happened to me on my way to work this morning. I love DC metro area.

Perpetrator · 09-03-2008, 10:11 AM

When the car in front of you comes to a complete stop at a redlight and leaves like 1-2 car lengths' space between them and the car in front of them. Then they proceed to roll about 3ft every 15secs. This is especially worse, since I drive a manual. By the time they're done, I have this huge gap in front of me, which makes me look like I have no depth perception when coming to a stop.

That's funny.

Plenty bothers me. But one thing that keeps following me around are people without brake-lights! WTF is wrong with people? I seriously see them every single day. It's like they constantly find me.

And the people who drive in rain without their lights on. Turn your lights on!

The limiter on the 335i.
There was a 911 I was racing on the autobahn and I had him up until I hit the frickin' speed limiter at 155....that sucked.

Or what about those that drive at night without their lights on. Can you not see that your dash lights are not on and it's dark?!

OMG I love these 2 sites:
