Charlotte drivers…

Not sure what happened with Charlotte drivers but most of these drivers should not be on the road.  Driving below speed limit, hogging lanes, swerving all over, creating bottlenecks.  I do not recall drivers ever being so bad in Charlotte…. Wonder what changed?  Any one else noticed it?

The worst most dangerous drivers always seem to be the ones who think they are the best drivers

Ill take the ones who drive a touch slow and sit in lanes over the ones driving wildly in excess of the speed limit, using tailgating as a form of bullying, passing on the right, and generally driving erratically and impatiently.

 

My moms late husband had a tee shirt that said "I'm not speeding I'm qualifying".  Hell of a great guy but worst driver ever.

The issue… those who drive slow need to move over to right lane.  At least that use to be the common courtesy few years ago.  Don’t drive next to another driver that goes below the speed limit.  That creates a bottleneck and creates potential for a wreck.

Yea but when you're already going over the speed limit and passing other cars there are still many who drive up on your ass expecting you to go faster.  When I was younger I would match the speed of the driver next to me to piss them off

I never cease to be amazed at the number of people who will run up their blood pressure to get to the grocery store 30 seconds faster or are racing to get to work like it won’t be there at 8:02.

 

The only thing I’ve ever done that I think added more years to my life besides quitting smoking, was to learn to go with the flow behind the wheel.

If you're in the left lane, look to the right. Is there someone beside you? Are you soon overtaking someone in the right lane immediately ahead of you? No and no? Then get the fug over. That's how it's supposed to work. Doesn't matter if you're going 100.

Yeah if Im running 70 in a 65 and your in my backseat Im locking my cruise control there and if you dont get the message Ill drop to the posted speed limit.

Im at or in excess of the posted speed and have no obligation to yield the lane.

Yep, this checks out. Very on brand with how you've come across online.

Don’t be upset if you get smoked and cut.  Left lane is a passing lane… if I go 80 on 70 and someone rolls behind me, I yield. End of story.  If not, you get smoked.

These folks who barely crawl on left lane and when you try to pass em, they gun it.

It's these same type of "there's no law on the book to force me to be a decent person with some consideration for others so I'll drive like a selfish prick" people who are the first people to cry "road rage" when someone blows by them and offers them a one fingered salute. LOL

Just common courtesy in my book.

      This has to be bitached about, those biased refs

      By OneBadCat · Posted

      It really is insane how they always try to rig the game vs Dallas. Two exceptions being our playoff games.    Had we lost it definitely would have been right up there with the 2014 Playoffs vs 49ers, Dallas 05, Saints 2018 Playoffs, and SB50 as all time rigged games.

      Week 6 PFF grades vs. DAL

      By AU-panther · Posted

      Say you don't understand PFF without saying you don't understand PFF... Every week seems like some of the same people are complaining about something they clearly don't understand.  I'm not saying they are the end all resource out there but once you understand their methodology you can start to appreciate some of their work. For example, their grading system isn't a high school grading system, try to look at some of it in relative terms.  Rico had an 82 rushing grade, that's pretty good.  I would be curious to know how that compares to every other running back this past weekend. Also, I think he had a few penalties, which if I'm not mistaken are graded pretty harshly.

      Can we go back to square one for a minute and remember what we paid for this guy and how he was sold?  He was like, the anti excuse. Makes everybody better, Did we get that?  I think the answer is still coming but so far you might can say that for a game or two.  Cam had issues with personnel every season almost. Horrible OL, but he had receivers. Decent to good OL no receivers. Etc. Bryce needs to stand up, or keep standing up, however you want to put it. It is big boy time in year 3. He doesn’t have to make the playoffs but there is a standard. We’ll see what happens.  But the excuses are just fuging tired.  ps, I mean let’s not crown him when he has franchise record production in two wins,.. let’s see when they stop that, how he does then.
