Woofers and Tweeters Posted September 28, 2016 Author Share Posted September 28, 2016 Okay..On the interstate: The one you're trying to pass or who's trying to pass you, but is locked on by the Enterprise's tractor beam, and for miles everyone is subjected to the operator's mindless pacing.

cincymat Posted September 29, 2016 Share Posted September 29, 2016 That's so true it's sad. I've gotten off the super slab and went over the river and threw the woods just to break away from the tractor beam. This driving thread really strikes home with me. I drive a lot for work, 35,000 a year is normal. See lots of special behavior from my fellow travelers. Mark 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
richieb Posted September 29, 2016 Share Posted September 29, 2016 Prius drivers, man or women. Seems they go as slow as possible while monitoring their fuel mileage. Sorry Forum Prius owners. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
USNRET Posted September 29, 2016 Share Posted September 29, 2016 As we drive along I ask the kiddos to compute how much sooner we would arrive given an increase of X MPH over the distance remaining. Interesting responses. I frigging HATE the parents picking up / dropping off kids at school absolutely zero common courtesy. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldtimer Posted September 29, 2016 Share Posted September 29, 2016 Prius owners are pretty bad I'll agree. However, for those who complain about people not accelerating quickly enough, I would wager that their cars are not capable. Before the prius it was the green station wagon, often with fake wood trim. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was blocked in for almost 20min. until they found the guy and made him come and move his car Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Woofers and Tweeters Posted September 29, 2016 Author Share Posted September 29, 2016 Then there is the small johnson syndrome: the ones who have the lifted 4x4 with the fuel turned up way too rich, tailgating, cutting back and forth through traffic and belching a lot of smoke in every one's cars. My county would have more fine money if I had a ticket book. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Woofers and Tweeters Posted September 29, 2016 Author Share Posted September 29, 2016 Nope...lol These trucks weren't backing out or pulling in, they were parked. The truck on the left doesn't stand out (pun) nearly as much as the one on the right. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sunburnwilly Posted September 29, 2016 Share Posted September 29, 2016 I drive a conspicuous car and some people lose they're minds around me . I need a dash cam . Two days ago a guy was riding close on my passengers side and then sped up , got in front of me and braked in an intersection with a green light . POS was trying to bait me and then sped off . Lots of people that suck out there , be mindful . 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JJkizak Posted September 29, 2016 Share Posted September 29, 2016 The problem with those big trucks is after the front is parked it takes the back 5 minutes to catch up. (levity) JJK 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Woofers and Tweeters Posted September 29, 2016 Author Share Posted September 29, 2016 Not into tailgating. Because I don't know what's their hurry, I usually look for a place to let them pass. I did some work in Texas, more than once. It was the first time that, on a 2 lane road with a shoulder, people would ease over and drive on the shoulder to let someone pass. Not sure if that courtesy is still practiced there, but it never caught on here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
