Anyone have this problem?
 
It's a pretty bad problem... I can't stand seeing a Civic or an Accord, or a CRX or any o' dems type cars in front of me! I MUST pass! Gets to be a problem when there's no passing lane. I'm like, NOOOOOOOOOOoooooooooo........

UCSBgeek April-9th-2003 03:59 PM

no, usually they are the ones trying to pass at all costs (while I still end up ahead or side-by-side with them. Thinking smart helps).


If I get tailgated I like to pull up on the e-brake. Sometimes the tailgater will run off the road

Ditto on that. Staying in the fast lane usually causes me to end up right in front of the people that are weaving through lanes left and right. It's kind of sad.

U guys are talking about highways... I'm talking about in town. Highways are another story.... If you're one of those assholes who get in the fast lane and go 68..... I'm prolly the guy that cut you off.

I'm with Chastan. I slam my brakes on all the time when someone tailgates me. Hey, it's their fault right? "I saw a rabbit, and slammed my brakes on!" Haha.

What I DO not get is people who tailgate me while I am driving 140 on the freeway. My brakes get a lot of work on the freeway.....

see i have a problem with the people who slam on their brakes, i have a really bad road rage problem, and SNAP when people do that. im not proud of it but thats how i am, now i know its my fault for tailgating, but still i snap. there was one night when this older guy slammed on his brakes on the highway, i lost it totaly, i ripped in front of him and slammed on mine, he swirved into the otherlane, and so did i, and slammed them on again. i was going to rip him outa his car and beat the ever living shit outa him. i guess my point is dont be a prick like the guy who's tailgating, just move over, or you might regret it.

Oh yeah, sure, you road rage, but don't worry, that's ok, because you know about it and you're not proud of it. I'm sure the juge will consider it when you kill someone. Idiot.

I was really just joking about doing that. It's what I'd like to do however. ;)

However my first statement is true; that I usually keep up with those guys who are weaving across lanes without being such a danger to self and others.

THEGOLDPRO April-11th-2003 11:01 AM

hey all im im saying is, for every action there is an equal or opposite reaction. you cant expect people not to snap when you slam on the brakes. yeah its there problem for tailgating, but you dont make it any better when you lock on the brakes.

What happened about leave about 2s between you and the car infront of you....?

I find that if you just calm down and let every body do what he/she pleases and just ignore every stupid moves by stupid drivers, your day will go less stressful

plus be nice, and don't expect people to be nice to you back, but it is better than getting shot or getting into a car accident

That is what happened down here in DC a couple of months ago

Some guy cut another guy off by mistake. The got to a stop sign, and the guy who was cut off pulled up a gun, and shot the driver and the passenger.....just because a stupid traffic violation.

Damn, and I thought female drivers where bad:D :D (only j/king, I respect female drivers alot, when they are sensible)

When it comes to passing, I only do it if the guy infront of me is freaking slow, but usually if you wait them out, they will move from infront of you.

And it is funny how those people that weave in and out of traffic think that they gain so much ground, where I would just stay in my lane usually end up farther then they are or in the worst case, right beside them


Be nice, don't be hating.......:D :fight:
