Didnt anyone ever teach you about driving behind another car?

OK why didnt you get in the right hand lane the first time to pass him?

Problem with following the 3 second rule when behind someone is that people nowadays see it as an invitation to move in between you and the other car.

The way people drive around semis is insanely absurd.

The problem is that most people are total assholes on the roads and lose all manner of civility and act like they are the only ones in the world.

Left hand lane driving and non-use of turn signals royally pisses me off.

[Crixtala]

the problem is... we have school teachers teaching kids how to drive. most teachers can't do their actual job. why are we asking them to teach driving on top of it?

I wish people acted the same on the road as they would if they were outside of their shiny metal boxes.

If you were walking at an airport and a guy in front of you was walking really slow and wouldn't get out of the way and you said "Sir, please get out of my way" and he called his friend who was walking behind you and he got up next to you so you couldn't pass either of them, it would be just fine to clock someone. At the very least push them out of the way. But on the road you can't really do that without causing an accident that would result in more serious injuries. What a shame.

Just to ease everyones mind, one time I was driving up north on 95 on a three lane part before DC. I was in the middle lane and there was a stream of traffic going about 5mph faster than me in the far left. A guy FLIES up behind me easily going 15 faster than me, jumps into the left lane, and tails everyone until he can fly by them. About 10 miles up the road, his car was in a ditch.

Road rage a thing of the past?

people on the road are either:

A. entirely too self absorbed

B. literally stupid to the "rules of the road"

C. a combination of A+B and don't care, often intentionally doing things to piss other drivers off

Don't be in such a hurry, move over if you are going slower than those behind you, and don't be a dick... it isn't hard...

That said, if you're a dick on the road, I reserve my right to become choice A above, and be a dick right back to you!

I drive like everyone else on the road is functionally retarded. I might piss people off with my chill driving, but fug them. I'm not going over 5 miles over speed limit. And they can expect for me to make a full stop when making a right hand turn if they're riding my ass.

[Darth Urious]

yeah, if someone gets on my ass for too long, there is going to be a phantom deer that runs out in front of me...

Most people can not drive in NC... thats how it will always be

[Porn Shop Clerk]

SC has the worst fuging drivers I've ever encountered.

[Jase]

no matter who you are or where you're from, one thing always remains the same: everyone sucks at driving except for you.
