As long as you merge right onto highways then I'll let you slide. I did bump into a woman (about a 2-3 mph collision)that kept creeping like she was going to turn a few months back. It was a stupid move by me to bump her but I could have sworn she turned considering she was practically out into the intersection and still didn't turn. I was looking to the left to see if there were any cars which there were only one or two coming in the fast lane. She could have turned into the slow lane but was too timid. We pulled over and there was zero damage to her SUV bumper. I didn't notice the dent on the front of my car (passenger side) till I got to my friends' house. The dent popped out in a matter of 30 mins with the help of a 100+ degree day. Just watch out or I might bump you!

The only thing that is possibly more frightening to you is the thought that she could read this conversation we have here. |
I actually was about to show her the post. She is taking a nap right now before work so I'll have to show her tomorrow. I know it will probably upset her but I just gotta do it. Something funny is that I thought about the middle sentence a lot while I was laying down with her. It wasn't the wording that I was thinking about. It was about that I missed inserting a comma between woman and she. (edit- multiple edits for poor sentences and grammar usage)
Anyways, here is a nice video from Family Guy relating to Asian women drivers...
The main thing that pisses me off are dickheads riding my damn bumper (People in Mini Coopers and Audi's are notorious for this). To remedy this, I slow down to about 10 under the speed limit to piss them off. Then when they try to go around, I floor it to 10 over. This may seem like a jerk move, but at least I'm not my sister. She'll slam on her breaks, roll down her window, and flip you off.

Well problem solved then? *scratches head*
Just keep a joint in the car at all times. Keeps the traffic blues away. So far away...

People in trucks/SUVS like to ride your ass in Texas. I usually go to the slower lane just to let them go since they want to try and intimidate smaller vehicles with their huge ass vehicle. I try and not ride anyone's ass but if they are going -5 or under the speed limit in the fast lane on the highway I tend to get a little close. One shouldn't be in the fast lane on the highway if they aren't willing to go at least the speed limit. I believe USA should adopt a law that is in effect in Germany. That law is that you can't pass people on the right hand side on a highway. This would reduce people weaving in and out of lanes. This would also notify all slow ass drivers to stay out of the fast lane. I believe Germany is leaps and bounds ahead of USA in terms of driving and driving laws. They even have a no riding ass law and monitor it by policeman with video cameras on overpasses that have special spacing lines set up for distance and they bill you if they catch you riding someone's ass.
I don't mind sharing the road with these huge gas guzzlers but it makes it a pain in the ass a lot of times. Mainly when trying to turn at intersections. If a truck/SUV is trying to turn at opposite intersection as me then they usually block my view of oncoming traffic making it hard to know exactly when it is safe to turn.

Couldn't possibly agree more with this point. People need to realize the left lane is a PASSING LANE. The idea is you come up on someone slow, go around them, and get back in the right lane. If everyone did this there would be no traffic problems ever! But idiots instead go 105 km/h (100km/h limit) on Canadian highways in the passing lane for as long as they want even if they aren't passing people in the right lane. This pisses me off. I can't tell you how many times I've had to use the right lane (slow lane) to pass people who are going slow in the left lane (passing lane) which you are technically not supposed to do.
I also just hate people in general who don't go the speed limit. In rainy/snowy weather I understand it because its a matter of safety, but in good weather why the fuck do people go like 65-70km/h in an 80km/h zone? I was stuck behind some 110 year old man in a Crown Vic literally going 65 in an 80 today on my way home from school for the weekend. If you're that scared to drive (not even going the speed limit) you shouldn't be on the road. I move that instead of your licence being valid until your 80 (and all you need to do is a simple written test to renew it) you should have to take a full road test at 60 years old, then at 70 years, and then every 5 years after that. Old drivers are more of a hazard than teenage drivers.
I also hate dickheads who tailgate you at night with the super bright LED headlights. I was doing a more than respectable 78km/h in a 60km/h zone the other night and some fuckface in a pickup comes behind me with his bitch ass bright headlights (not highbeams, just the regular headlights) so I basically can't see a damn thing, but he doesn't have the balls to pass me (even when its clear to do so). Its bad enough that every other car has these stupid super bright headlights these days, but I don't need people tailgating me with them.
Theres actually been some research into this that suggests the reason why people are assholes behind the wheel is because you can't see the other persons face, and consequently you don't empathize with them.
But im like op frequently, people are idiots.
“When we make some new announcement and if there is no positive initial reaction from the market, I try to think of it as a good sign because that can be interpreted as people reacting to something groundbreaking. ...if the employees were always minding themselves to do whatever the market is requiring at any moment, and if they were always focusing on something we can sell right now for the short term, it would be very limiting. We are trying to think outside the box.” - Satoru Iwata - This is why corporate multinationals will never truly understand, or risk doing, what Nintendo does.

Yeah trucks piss me off too, especially the ones that try to haul ass for no reason (God damn Silverados). As a matter of fact a crappy ass H3 was on my bumper on my way home. It's so irritating because I already drive 5 over the limit, so what the fuck do they need to go any faster for? I did my tried and true slow down and speed up method twice on him. The second time the dummy almost crashed trying to overtake me.

My additions to your list:
- People who tailgate you but don't have the balls to go around and pass (especially at night with bright headlights)
- People who don't signal. Like is it really that hard to signal, moving your hand like half an inch? Even when nobody is around I signal just as a force of habit, its not like my driving experience is made a chore by signaling.
- Dickheads who are turning left at an intersection across from you (while you are trying to turn left as well) that come out as far as possible and block your view of oncoming traffic. If we both just stayed back we could both see clearly, but instead people have to be dicks and get as close as possible to the middle of the intersection.
- Basically anyone who turns on to the road in front of me but then goes slow as balls and forces me to brake. If you're going to cut me of at least have the common courtesy to go fast so I don't have to brake. I don't know how people get the courage to cut out into traffic when they really shouldn't, but they don't have the balls to go fast.
- Anyone driving a Prius, Yaris, PT Cruiser, Nissan Cube, Nissan Juke, Honda Element, Chrysler 300 or Mazda Miata. I hate all these cars, just throwing that out there.
- Dicks who go like right on the speed limit (or below the speed limit) when its impossible to pass, but as soon as we hit a passing lane and its clear the guy is suddenly going like 15-20km/h over the speed limit and you can't pass, then he slows back down again when you can't pass again. These people are douchebags.
