Tuesday Rant, effing bad drivers again!!
WTF is up with moron drivers leaving 2 - 3 car spaces between cars in front at traffic light.
On the way in today, two jackasses did this, one behind the other, and blocked me from being able to get into the left turn lane. Of course I blasted them with the horn and pipes, and the moron in front of me moved up. I bet these losers will advise this is a safety procedure in the event a crime is committed at a red light, which I have heard other low IQ drivers state. Okay, someone explain to me in the history of our country how such a tactic has ever saved anyone's else, as I have never read about such or seen on the news. Getting a little exhausted here trying to teach the world to drive,,, |

They were probably wearing a mask and afraid getting close.

My pet peeve at red lights is the asshole who just had to switch lanes just to be first in line and then when the light turns green, they hesitate to go and then at a snails pace! WTF did you cut me off to be first at the light if you're not gonna floor it on the green!?

I try to leave space between me and the guy in front of me at a light, because when (not if) I get rear ended, I don't want my vehicle pushed into the car in front of me, which just makes things MOAR complicated. I've been hit at a stop light a couple of times already, in Houston, it's just a certainty.
Having said that, if you're behind me with the turn signal and you need to get into a turn lane, I'll pull up as far as I can for you to try and let you squeeze through. |

I drive thru the ghetto shithole on Milwaukee's North side once a month to pick up a friend of my MILs. To many jackasses passing in bike/parking lanes, cutting/swerving in front of me, no signals, etc. Got to be prepared for when I blow my horn and some yutes jump out and charge at me. You can't win at this game. |

I always leave enough room in front of me at a light or a drive through so if one of Obama’s sons decides to car jack or rob me I can quickly escape with no more effort than turning the wheel a bit and squealing away.
Another thing I never do is enter an intersection on a left turn before the traffic clears, I don’t intend to die being t-boned in a traffic accident sitting with my thumb up my ass in an intersection waiting for the traffic to clear. Sorry Yaddy I know that is one of your pet peeves but that’s how it is. I try to drive as considerately as I can, but my and my passengers safety comes before the hurt feelings of someone behind me who feels I should take risks to suit their needs or wants. |

We have a "right of way" problem here in NM. Nobody knows wtf it is! One car can be at a 4 way intersection and i come along 3 days later and that stupid ass is trying to wave me on through.
My regular favorite is with me pulling out onto a main road. I'm waiting for all the left & right cross traffic to clear and some jackoff just stops on the main damn road to let me out. I don't think so. |

People suck and don't know how to drive nor pay attention.
I was towing with stuff on a trailer just today so I went slow(not stupid slow) and took back roads. I pulled over whenever I could to let traffic by and of course had assholes a foot from trailer a few times. Had the mandatory asshats pull out in front of me twice, the ole no looky California roll at a stop sign. Some days I'm amazed I'm not in a collision. |
