Driving, a continuuing

I felt like redoing this thread over here in SE++ because I'm a sadistic bastard.

Share some horrifying driving experiences with us here. Even something just completely stupid you witness people doing. It seems they happen at least once a day to me, so I figured a few of us can have a go at it. I'd have posted this in D&D but they'd be all up in my business with "oh that shit is dangerous" and "speed because statistically it's safer! Here's a bunch of retarded graphs that proves my point". So if you're one of those assholes that breaks the law because it's safer, go back to D&D because I don't want to hear it.

That said.

Today on my way to the bank some fucking wanker was going 25 in a fucking 40. During lunch rush-hour. It also took him forever to go through lights. Get your eyes checked grandpa.

Also, the crazy ass drivers that pull up beside me on a two lane road that merges into a 1 lane road at a light. Why don't you realize your 86 Corolla isn't going to outmatch my car? Seriously, when I beat you I'm going to slow to a fucking crawl (still close to the speed limit) because I can.

And you, yeah you, fucker on my ass trying to go 80 when I'm speeding myself going 60 in a 55. Yeah, go to hell, wait, what's that, I'm going 40 now? Too bad.

    I'm always driving way too fast. Just today I was driving 80 in a 50. But I guess my fastest yet was 95 in a 60.

    I had to drive somebody to a car place at lunch for some smog check or something, and decided my dog would enjoy the car ride. After we dropped the guy off my dog jumped up to the front seat and pressed his face up against the air conditioning vents because he likes those more than sticking his head out the window

    Me and my friends don't really drive fast much. One of them has turbo and likes to show it off every once in a while, but we are all simply just a little fast. Nothing drastic.

    Stupid driving... hmm. Well if we plan on going somewhere with added hilarity and its urgent, we will take out the bong while driving on the highway.

    Works surprisingly well.

    Oh, and it seems if there is ever an animal on the road, all of us do a crazy impossible exaggerated maneuver as to not hit it.

    I knew some window installers who flipped their work truck a few times on I75. They were smoking a bowl when they got clipped by a Mercedes. They got out unharmed and commenced to toking up again.

    Yeah maybe if you paid fucking attention it wouldn't be a problem.

    Someone came through the bank parking lot (it's inbetween two streets) going about 50. Almost hit me in the ass. Cop pulled them over for (I'm guessing) probably circumventing the light. That cop is always in that parking lot too. Not even hidden.

    Two stick out in my mind:
    I'm driving in the left lane of two lanes going about 40 mph, approaching a green stophlight, and a guy in my line ahead of me is stopped and trying to turn left. I look to my right and see room to get into the right lane, so I switch lanes, leaving a bit less than ideal room for the car behind me, maybe 5-7 feet. This pisses the driver off something awful. After passing the left turner, I get back into the left lane, and the pissed off driver speeds up, cuts right in front of me in my lane, perhaps 3 feet in front of me, stays there for 10 seconds or so going more slowly than he had been, to try and tick me off, then he goes back into the right lane because he had to turn right at the next light. I'm sure that was some pretty sweet revenge for him.
    Another time, on the same road, I'm backed up in traffic from the red light ahead, and there's a street that crosses the one I'm on with no light, so I do the right thing and stop about 15 feet short of the car ahead of me so oncoming cars can turn left in front of me. I can think of nothing else worthy of noting that I did, and yet I can see the woman behind me furiously yelling at me and waving her arms and flicking me off, for about 20 seconds, and continuing as we start to move. I found this very perplexing.

    Also, a few times? As in, multiple times?

    The ones that really piss me off are the ones that gun it to get ahead of you, and then make a left hand turn at the next street, blocking traffic for however long it takes them to get through. Nine times out of ten, if they had stayed where they were instead of speeding up, the could've made the turn without stopping or blocking traffic.

    We have a few busy streets on which the lights are timed, so it's always fun when people try to gun it on green.

    One dude the other night just kept doing it. Kept stopping at the next red light, everyone would pass him because they didn't need to stop. Zoom past again, stop again. For about 2 miles.

    How are you not understanding this?

    All of our lights are on sensors. It makes it ridiculous to stop because of 2 cars when it's rush hour. Especially since in about 5 minutes, the road is almost completely clear for another 2 minutes until the next wave comes.

    Ours are sensitive enough to pick up someone standing in the lane. Really. Someone jaywalked a little too much in the lane and it set off the sensor in rush hour. So a ton of cars just sit and wait 5 minutes for nothing.

    Don't go 80 in a 55 and we don't have a problem. I'm totally okay with people going 60, or even 65, but every single person who goes 80 on this road gets rammed into on the blind corner.
