My horn is not a request for you to take your only remaining hand off the wheel and use it to tell me your opinion. It means:

1. Pay attention.
2. Push hard on the pedal adjacent to the one currently in use.
 
Any ********* who tosses cigarette butts out the window.

or tossing any trash out the window, but cigs really grind my gears.
 
That they don't realize it's my road... and I have every right to complain about their driving since I'm the only one who is allowed to be on my road. (At least this is what my wife says I think.)

Nope, not me. I hate those guys too. I've been out here for 21 years. I quit needing to be in a hurry about 20 years ago. Lot of newer, younger drivers out there giving guys like me a bad rep.

Then your one of the truckers that I like!!!
 
People that think their blinker entitles them to a spot in my lane. I've been in this stopped traffic for 3 miles just so I didn't miss my exit, then they drive up and slam on their brakes 1/4 mile from the exit with their blinker on. Then I get to play the stay as close to the person in front of me while I use one hand to drive and the other hand to give them the finger game.
 
The interstate from the vast western Milwaukee suburbs exits into downtown via Van Buren St. That street is four lanes, one way, from the highway to the center of downtown.

From 7:00 am to 9:00 am, there is no parking on Van Buren because EVERYONE from the western suburbs needs to exit the highway onto that street and we need all four lanes to accommodate the huge volume of traffic.

That, however, doesn't stop oblivious idiots from parking there during the morning rush hour and completely f'ing up the traffic flow for blocks.

ha! I'm glad I get to turn right on that offramp!
 
Check out www.driveatank.com. You can crush a car with a 70 ton chieftain tank and relieve years of pent up traffic stress. I just did this for my birthday and it was an awesome day.
 
In Chicago, you don't ask for a lane change, you take it. That's how you have to drive here.

Pretty much how you guys got the name FIB. Cause when you come up here you still drive like that. What really bugs me is when I am driving down the interstate doing 70-ish and some FIB passes me like I am standing still. THEN I get a get a couple miles up the road and a local, not the FIB, is pulled over by a trooper.

Also, what is up with people insisting on following me in my blind spot? I speed up, they speed up. I slow down, they slow down. Get outta my blind spot so I can see you, ya moron!

Nice...I think this is why I like grand theft auto. Sometimes I just drive around waiting for someone to irritate me...then I destroy them.
 
Slow lane. Above speed limit. Can't go any faster because of cars ahead. Fast lane is open. Being tailgated. Why is it an 80% chance it is a woman on a cell phone and usually from Massachusetts.
 
This thread reminds me of a statistic... 90% of all drivers believe they are better drivers than the average driver.
 
When you're enjoying a ride on your motorcycle and some cell phone driving bitch jumps from the middle lane to the HOV lane, tags you (at 70) and keeps going.

I'd be dead without good gear and a good helping of luck. I sit typing this with one hand due to broken ribs and collarbone.
 
Seeing someone pull up to a stop sign, look directly at me coming down the hiway at 50+, not another vehicle behind me as far as I can see, and that guy blows right through the stop sign in front of me and I've got to dynamite the brakes to not hit them. Then watch him screw around with something in the passenger seat because he obviously wasn't ready to go yet. And now he's doing 10 miles under the limit because he's still screwing around with his papers, phone, or coffee.
 
********* every morning.Im in the right lane semi in the left going slower. Im not speeding up even more for some ******* tailgaiter so he can run past me, ill brake and keep his ass behind both of us. I dont tolerate that riding up on you crap.Sorry tailgaiter but the semi should be in the right lane.Too many dumb drivers getting too close.I get your point but im not speeding up on your account! Deal with it dumb aggressive driver.Boost your ego by beating your wife when you get home,moron.

Then he goes down the block a 1/8 mile and hits the brakes, as you wonder what the heck he is doing he may or may not turn on his turn signal before turning.

Trust me, I don't like it any more than you do. I'm the guy who let's everyone in and gets honked at by people behind me because I was courteous.

This was at the time your 2000th post.What a waste. Why are you in the right lane getting passed by a truck and blocking traffic?

I leave people in, don't block an intersection and never get honked at. What are you doing different that causes people to honk?
 
In Chicago?

No, in Chicago I drive like a lunatic.I find Chicago drivers love the horn but are a little wussy when you stare them in the eye and go for your territory. I can see why you get honked at if you are courteous in Chicago. I was thinking about how it is to drive locally. I adapt to whatever area I am in.
 
1. Bicycles on sidewalks. It's pretty easy to tag one coming out of an alley or even at a busy intersection when there is a lot of other stuff going on. They move so much faster than pedestrians that there is no warning. Plus, those that blatantly disobey traffic laws make it difficult to predict what they'll do.
2. People that run left turns on red. ESPECIALLY at rush hour when they stick out in the intersection and back everything up. The first (or even second) guy that left the line on yellow, fine. The fourth guy when the light was red as he approached the line, d-bag.

Thats the first time i've seen FIB in almost twenty years! A friend of mine in college was from Racine, WI and used that one when a few of us were driving to his parents house for Thanksgiving, i've always remembered it but never heard anyone else use it till now.

My father is a tanker driver also and I have to say, it destroys any possibility of conversing with him about anything other than ass#ole drivers.
 
How about people that don't know where the hell they're going so they do half the speed limit on a one lane road so they can slowly read every damn side street sign twice before missing the turn? I'm glad I only live 2 miles down such a road off the interstate but the speed limit is 45 and you get morons doing 25 and gawking at the street signs the whole way.

Don't worry though, if there's an opportunity to pass they'll do 90.
 
I drive way more than most, and my conclusion is, everyone on the road is an ass wipe.
