F... idiot drivers

MTK · 04-14-2006, 10:24 AM

So I'm sitting in traffic yesterday at a light, outta nowhere some jerkoff pulls up to my left, obviously looking to butt his way in. I said to myself ok, if he puts on his signal I'll let him in, otherwise screw him. I say if you can't give me the courtesy of a signal, FU, what am I a mind reader?

So traffic starts moving, still no signal, and he's trying to come into my lane. I start hugging the bumper of the car in front of me, and he ends up moving in behind me. He then swings around to the right lane, pulls up along side me, and trys the old stare down routine (keep in mind he's got a kid in the car, making him even more of a jerkoff for acting like this). Anyway, I'm not buying his stare down game, I keep looking straight ahead to not give the guy the satisfaction, meanwhile my blood is freakin boiling, finally I look at the guy unable to resist any longer and flip him off.

We've all heard of beer muscles, but what about car muscles. Why do people get all tough in their cars? You know damn well if you were standing face to face with guys like this they wouldn't say shit.

F idiot drivers.

Oh man, you just hit one of my biggest pet peeves right on the head. I HATE people who try to change lanes without using a signal. I'm the same way as you, if they use a signal I politely let them in. If they don't use the signal, it's game on. I pretty much try to make their life as miserable as possible, trying to block every move they make. Once someone tries to do that to me, getting where I'm going becomes secondary to making their life miserable.

F idiot drivers is right.

THAT'S ME TOO.

The non-use of turn signals is one of my biggest annoyances.

I also hate smokers who think they're exempt from the littering laws, especially when their flaming garbage hits my car's paintjob.

People who think they're driving a phone booth...

Then there's people who don't turn headlights on when it's almost dark. I usually pull out in front of them because after all, how do they expect people to see them without lights on.

I'm entertained by your story because I feel like I'm the ONLY person to act that way. Like when I'm in traffic I'll ALWAYS let one person in if they have their signal light on, but if they want to butt in, they can f*ck off. It takes less than a second to do and makes such a HUGE difference in courtesy.

Another FU goes to ALL the big ass trucks that drive FASTER when it rains. Honestly, I think that these dumbasses think that their stupid trucks get BETTER traction when it rains. I saw a guy taking his son to school pass me in a 55 going at least 80 in the RAIN.

HAHA! I'm so glad that we have fellow road ragers on here. I get so freakin' pissed when I drive I have to calm down often when I get to where I'm going. Question for all you guys who live in VA and this is nothing against NJ people, but is Virginia becoming South New Jersey? I was counting the other day on the interstate and 6 out of 10 cars were from New Jersey. And 6 out of 6 of those cars drove like total jackasses. Great, you're from "the city", but you're in Virginia now, stop driving like a jerkoff.

I realy don't notice all the NJ drivers in the Virginia Beach area are you talking more about northern VA. Now we do get alot of NJ drivers on 64 going to the Outer Banks this time of year. What irks me is when a lane is ending and the driver drives as far down as they can go and tries to squeeze into traffic when they could have merged over earlier but did not want to wait in line. Whats fun to do when you are on a two lane road and that person comes right up on your tail trying to get by. I will slow down a little and they will chang lanes and get behind the other car thinking they are going to pass me. Then I will speed up a little like I'm going to pass that car and then they jump back in behind me. Some people will just go back and forth as long as I do this not even realizing that your laughing at them every time they change lanes.

Again, HILARIOUS. I do the exact same thing. My fiancee and I call it "the game". We'll slow down to give them some hope and then get on the person in front of us's butt.

But this is more in the SW VA area (up and down 81). I remember looking at the enrollment of the college I went to and the university I work at, both have New Jersey as their top enrollment underneath Virginia. People must REALLY want to get out of there.

At the risk of people being pissed off at me, I didn't say that, but I definitely thought it.

They have invaded Nags Head NC by buying and renting all these hugh cottages for vacation. They have driven all the prices up there form food, golf, property and all consumer goods. They think its a deal because of what they are use to paying in NJ but what was once a nice little home town feeling beach area has just grown like crazy. I also get alot of people from NJ moving to the Virginia Beach/Chesapeake area. They move from 2000 sq foot homes and come her and buy 4000 sq foot homes for less and pay cash for them. Most are retired couples who just want to get away from NJ's high cost of living. Now when I say retired couples I mean in their mid 50's is quite common. Their great customers as I'm in the Insurance business and after they find out how much cheaper ins. is in Va they love ya. This is propably true with the school system and explains why they go to college here. With a military area we get drivers from all around the country and it can get quite crazy at times. I'm lucky that my rout to work does not involve getting tied up in traffic everyday. I do drive about 15 to 20 each way but I can take back roads with very little trafic and a few lights but I'm sure that will end some day.

Redskins_P · 04-14-2006, 11:05 AM

What I hate most and this happens to me alot is when someone gets in front of you and then start braking. WTF?

Or how about when you're cruising down a 2 lane street, and theres that one dude sitting on a side street trying turn on to your street and without hesitation jumps right in front of you and you have practically slam your brakes! What makes it worse is that no one was behind me!!!! Why couldn't you wait until I passed you f-ing douchebag!!!!!!!!!

God I have road rage.

TheMalcolmConnection · 04-14-2006, 11:06 AM

You mean someone GETS in front of you or CUTS in front of you?!

TheMalcolmConnection · 04-14-2006, 11:08 AM

And I agree about your second point. Like they sit there and look at you and COULD have gone without irritating you BUT they sit there and sit there and sit there and THEN go and THEN go in the lane that YOU'RE in. At least go in the other lane.

Warpath · 04-14-2006, 11:19 AM

My favorite is when 2 lanes merge to one lane, and the jackass spends up to pass you, only to make a turn at the very next intersection. I mean just file in line and then you dont have to speed up to pass then slam on the break to make the turn. F....you.
