listen, i know some people suck at driving, it sucks and i don't like it any more than you do
no one likes stuffty drivers, we're all hurtling across the pavement in 2 ton death machines just hoping other people have the pity/awareness not to slam into us, the last thing we want to worry about is some dipstuff recklessly cutting people off and blocking traffic at intersections trying to turn left from a right turn lane

i get it

but it's not up to us to "teach them a lesson"
refusing to let someone merge because they waited too long and now they're trying to cut in line is not helping anyone, it's only making it worse
driving slowly in the left lane on the highway because you are angry at people who speed is a loving richardhead thing to do (and illegal in a lot of places, including NC where I live)
yes, i wish more people used turn signals too, and i hate it when people don't use them... but refusing to make room for someone who is trying to change lanes just cause they have no turn signal on is probably just going to cause that lane to become more congested as they struggle to switch lanes. you're loving with everyone now, not just them.

i know it's not fair that we have to accommodate for dumbasses like these but that's life and it's not up to you to "educate" bad or aggressive drivers by being "that starfish" who didn't let them merge on their way to work this morning
if there are police around and someone is truly being reckless, they will probably be pulled over, and that's it, it's done

swallow your loving pride and drive in a way that helps everyone, not just the people who you think deserve accommodation
it makes traffic as a whole move more smoothly and gets everyone where they need to be more quickly

i thought this was gonna be news of some national socialists getting run over or something when I read the title

AGREE AGREE AGREE AGREE AGREE AGREE

i once tried to use a bike lane to make a right (this is in ny) and this bus who was in the lane to the left apparently tried some vigilantism and every time i tried to drive forward he would veer the bus right in front of me. we were both at a red light

i just inch my car forward a bit and he turns the bus so far right it nearly crushes my car against all the parked ones. at this point im like forget it and i back up and wait behind him because some people apparently cant mind their own damn business when driving and feel they have to teach everyone a lesson


not signalling is pretty bad imo, very liable to cause accidents especially in towns or changing lanes. people who drive in motorway lanes around here are idiots and lanes are usually pretty scary

Honestly the thing that pisses me off the most for just general bad driving habits is not using your GODDDAMM BLINKERS. ITS NOT HARD.

was cruising behind someone going 80 in the fast lane - not much traffic at all - and a maxima going 90 tried passing us in the slow lane as we were coming up on a semi which was obviously also in the slow lane

normally i'd speed up to close the gap so people like him wouldn't consider cutting me off, but we were so near to the truck and i was already within 3 car lengths of the guy in front of me, so i didn't. the maxima no-blinker lane-changes right between us loving anyways and hits the brakes

vigilante justice is always wrong anyways
