Ok, that does it -- if I ever see you driving on a road, I'm calling Homeland Defense.

I'm just glad I am a defensive enough of a driver that I avoided an accident with that idiot.

He must have been a traveler from Texas, or something.

It's people like you whom I constantly see in my rear-view mirror.

Um . . . FYI, I drive at speed limits in cities, not under, and on the highways, I drive maybe five mph over. But that does not make me a very SLOW driver just because I'm not a reckless speed demon like you.

I have always passed plenty of drivers in my years driving on the freeway.

softy, I go 60 in cities (50 max), 80 in Berlin (50 max), 120-130 on highways (no matter what max)

But not me. I know, 'cause I count. On one trip to Florida I was passed by 4 people in 600 miles.

On the other hand, I was just shortly ago overtaken by someone BEHIND me while entering a highway. Naturally he thus blocked the rightmost highway lane for me to enter, while the acceleration lane was getting short. I noticed too late so almost crashed into the barrier or him, could just brake in time.

Q: Isn't it his fault?

Yeah...it is. But people will do **** like that. You have to learn to accelerate fast and get over yourself or to brake hard and get behind them. This guy should have let you in or moved over to the left lane. But you are going to have to deal with these people. Young Eastie.

Don't worry, I'll learn how to drive before getting my license

Oh for the love of Mike! You guys measure your speed in kilometers per hour! I've seen nuns on Vespas cruising at better speeds than that! If you were real man you'd try that in miles per hour!

Doesn't Germany have an annual highway death total almost equal to that of the United States, a country 4 times its size?

Usually anywhere from 5-10 miles/hour over the limit, except on highways where I drive between 80-90 mph.

Yes, I'm an aggressive driver. But a very safe one.

Alright Mr. Fun this thread is a jinx! Whilst drive down I-35 today I had the irrepressable idot who didn't check his blind spot nor did he signal. If I hadn't been looking my car would be wrecked right now.

He might not have signaled but I can assure you that I gave him the one finger signal! Only after honking and the wife and him both look around like......whaaa??? How much of an idot do you have to be to ignore the horn?
