1. Empty highway. You're merging onto the road and some MF'er refuses to get over one lane to ease things...you either have to speed up or slow down to get on...totally needless. [/ QUOTE ] Please die. The onus of adjustment is on the car that is merging, 100% of the time. Degree of freeway traffic is completely irrelevant. People who are entering a freeway and expect the existing traffic to adjust for them should be banned from ever driving. Edit: If it's easy enough, I will move over to accomodate the merger, but that's more for my own benefit, and I am far from obligated to do so. |

[/ QUOTE ] The point is that you are wrong if you're outraged that people don't make room for you when you're merging onto the freeway, no matter how open it is. |

alright, I'm pulling out of the gas station just now, some person overshoots their pump and starts backing up carelessly. I slam my horn for about 7 straight seconds, doesn't matter, this person backs right into me...[censored] mother [censored], I'm not happy. Eitherway, guess the driver that hit me and pick the worst type of driver? [/ QUOTE ] GIVE ME THE ANSWER! I was tossing a turning all night with anticipation.

[/ QUOTE ] I think you missed the point: in none of the three examples I gave is the driver OBLIGATED to do anything; it's common courtesy. Kinda like holding a door for someone with three bags of groceries: a minor inconvenience for me avoids a moderate inconvienience for someone else. When someone refuses to switch lanes to ease the process, they're saying either, "The convienience of another person is insufficiently important for me to alter my behavior a trivial amount," or "I'm too clueless to realize that my behavior has any impact on those around me." Another pet peeve: people who can't grasp the concept that "yield sign" =/= "stop sign." |

Back in '99, 2 days after I purchased a brand new PathFinder, I pulled into a Taco Bell drive-thru for a little grub.
Some young dude in a Celica was in front of me at the speaker ordering when all of a sudden, the little punk decides that he doesn't want Taco Bell anymore. Dude throws it in reverse and punches it....right into my front end. Needless to say, I was a little pissed. I think this was best displayed by the way I jumped out of my car and started towards him to ring his [censored] neck. I've never seen a white kid turn so white. Turns out that instead of death, he chose to roll up his windows, lock his doors, call mommy and (literally) start crying. Funniest [censored] thing I've seen in my life (or at least that day). $700 for the dent that I decided not to fix becuase I like the way the front of my truck now has a 'don't [censored] with me dent'. |

Once I parked somewhere in my compact car and even remarked to myself, "Boy, was that a perfect parking job? Right in the middle of the spot."
Needless to say, I came out of the store and there was a soccer mom's SUV on my left, parked at a 30 degree angle, so close to me that I had to climb in the passenger side. Has this ever happened to anyone else? |

Meh, maybe I overreacted because I'm used to people merging right into me without even looking. So you have a point. In retrospect, "Please die" was unwarranted. [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]
