Dear Idiot Drivers:

I would like to point out some things that may help you in the future.

1. Headlights are not just so you can see. They are so other drivers can see you. USE THEM!

2. Stop signs are NOT optional.

3. Your turn signal stalk is that stick on the left side of your steering wheel. Up makes the right turn signal come on. Down makes the left turn signal come on. This instrument is to be used to alert other drivers that you intend on turning. USE THEM!

4. On the note of turning, if you intend on making a left hand turn in 1/2 a mile you do not have to start slowing down when you are still that 2640 feet from your turn. You can wait til you are about 300 feet to slow down.

5. When the speed limit is 45mph, it does not mean to drive 25mph. If you cannot maintain the proper speed, then get off the road and let those who can get around you.

6. If you can't fit a phone book between your front bumper and my rear bumper, you are probably too close

7. Last, but certainly not least, if you don't know how to drive GET THE F*CK OFF THE ROAD.

7) There should be more than 6 inches between your front bumper and my rear bumper. *cough*Brandisil*Cough*

Thank you, I forgot that one. I was going to say, "If you can't fit a phone book between your front bumper and my rear bumper, you are probably too close."

I'll add it.

There are seriously my two biggest pet peeves ever.

Might I also add two to your list...

A) The left lane is for passing...not for camping...texting...and enjoying your next Twilight book, ****er.

B) The onramp is called an ON RAMP for a reason...you don't get to the freeway or highway still going 30 and expect me to be happy and not let you eat the shoulder when I hammer it around you leaving you wondering...

"Y U MAD BRO?"
 


i hate snow birds for the reasons listed above

also any time you see a new york license plate in florida i can guarantee you they are in the left lane (we have 3 here) doing 65, and the best part is they won't take a ****ing hint when tractor trailers and cars have to pass on the right
 
i just cant stand me on the highway and ppl wont move out the way.. they see da fast lane moving at 80+ and they doing 60 that pisses me off << fla and sc drivers have that issue badd
 
I gave up trying to drive in Misery.. it's the worst.

As for 25mph in a 45mph zone. Technically...it's legal. That's the limit, not the suggested mph. And yeah..I hate it too.
 


For those of you who like to drive fast, don't go to Florida then, those people in Georgia and Florida drive so slow that's it insane. But then again if I could drive 1 hour so to get to the beach then I probably wouldn't be in such a hurry either, most drivers in the midwest are pricks.
 
If you can see what time it is...in MY car...ur waay too close!
And isn't going much slower than the posted speed limit under normal driving conditions considered impeding traffic?
 
I know for sure that if your on the highway with a posted speed limit of 100Kph, and only doing 80 or less your supposed to have your 4ways on to alert other drivers that your going slow.
 
i dont use my blinkers because it seems that everytime i put my blinker on to try and switch lanes the guy behind speeds up and doesnt let me in anymore. if he doesnt know im coming until im already doing it then i always get that spot. blinkers are to warn people im turning ahead so they should get off my ass.

also, all stop signs with white borders are optional.
 
That's what I like about the 1 ton. Smoke them if you have too. Yes, the black smoke can be driven through, but it gets on the windshield and paint and if you are back there long enough it will fill your carbon filter and make the interior stink or you could give the proper distance and no black smoke comes out the exhaust pipe(s).

Technically its illegal. Impeding the flow of traffic is against the law. There have been cases where people have been stopped for driving too slow.
 
Note: Units in KPH!

so is doing 75 in a 50.

But it happens all day long.

People tailgate me when I'm doing 10-15 over.

They're my favourite.

Give me an excuse to do 5 below the limit.

I was in a string of traffic a few weeks ago, all doing 50-55mph in a 45mph zone, so note we were all above the speed limit. Had a guy come up behind me and was so close I could have figured out the conversation he was having with his passenger by reading his lips. I let off the throttle, without braking, to let him know nicely to back off. He continued following at the same distance and I backed off even more til I was down to 35 mph. He still didn't get the hint. I tapped the brakes just enough to light the brake lights. He was apparently still too stupid to understand, so I jammed the brakes hard. He almost slid off the road. He never did get close to me again after that.
 
i always do a little multi-tap on the pedal just to flash the brakes a couple times. seems to work okay unless youre a complete tool bag.
