Use your signals and stop weaving in and out of lanes! (my lane, anyway!)

What's worse though are people who roll to a stop on a residential street to wait for their friends, pick their nose, whatever. Use your damn hazards and pull off to the side! HONK HONK

 

this i have to agree with especially in carpool i remember i was driving at 70mph on carpool once and i caught up to this suv so i decided to slow down but i ended up going 53mph so i got pissed and start to tail him a little and high beam they f**king threw a can at my car...

 

My god! If only people would do this!

I was in Italy last year and everyone did this. It was brilliant... no tards sitting in the #1 lane holding everyone up... if only...

 

guilty!

 

Statistically speaking, every time you change lanes increased your chance of getting into an accident.

The vehicle code DOES contain a section specific to signaling before changing lanes. Ask me in the morning and I will be moticated enough to find it for you lol... OR, make a sudden unsignaled lane change in front of a cop and you will get your answer However, I believe the VC also contains a section about returning to the #2 lane once you are finished passing.

Gonna leave the "rolling up on someone and flashing your lights" alone, except to say that you will receive much better results if you don't tailgate as you roll up on someone. Personally, if you roll up on me and tailgate when I am already speeding AND passing someone slower, I am going to hang you behind me or the other car for a couple miles and really **** you off!! If you leave some following distance, I will get out of your way once I am safely past the slower car.

 

I dont care if I get flamed - I actively block excessive lane changers.

It seriously pisses me off when Im doing 70-80mph and people try to pass me when there are 100,000 cars ahead in all 3 lanes.

 

Now THIS is my kinda thread!

I change lanes like mad. First in line for the light, and first to stay in the right lane doing 80. The secret is doing it at a safe pace, its not a F'n slalom like you see when ricers change lanes within 50 ft of ground!

Keep right B****es

I love coming up on an M5 in the fast lane and getting to flash my beams at 'em...sell you car or use the HP you bought you stupid CEO moron. Get a F'ing clue?!!!!

signaling is like the cell phone rule: a cop will write the cell phone user a ticket before he writes one for the non cell phone user...just like the cop will write the non-signaler a ticket before he writes one for the signaler.



You can call 1800 tell chp and give that license plate and say its a drunk driver...cant do him any good at least. I'm afraid people do that to me. I cut tons of people off that do 64 in the fast lane...if im passing you on the right, then im gonna get infront of you as fast as possible, if you dont like it then get your *** to the right where you belong.

LOL yeah 99.5% lane changes in my life have been WITH a signal, Ricers and Rich F's in their $100K cars DONT signal, thats why i DO signal.

No reason not too, i signal on an empty freeway at 3AM because its safer than not. and its just another reason for a CHP to give you S if you dont signal, why bother?

I hate it when you are 100 yards from a stop sign, you see someone stopped on the opposite sign for 10 seconds not moving at all, then when you come to the stop sign and stop, they think its their turn to make a left turn in front of you...no, F NO! you had your chance B****

 

QFT! Half the fun of my commute is blocking people from passing in heavy traffic! theres no point, and 10 miles down the road when i reach SF, i wave to them as i meet them at the red light!

 

Here's my rant on backroad group drives:

Locals on those roads don't like getting tailgated and will happily block your way (as I'm sure many of us would do as well) if you insist on riding their asses, but...

if you pull close to let them know you're there, then back off a few car lengths, more often than not, they'll pull over to let you pass.

Give respect, take respect.

 

and while you on the #1 lane your signal should be always on.

 

Wow, good responses.

I just drove up to Modesto from Livermore after work to pick up a V1. On the way up there, traffic up the wazoo, so no excessive lane changing. Coming back, different story. If the speed limit posted is 65, please do AT LEAST 65 in the #1. If not, then please move over.

I am freaking tired from driving behind inconsiderate people but I scored big time with the V1.

 

Living in the mtns, i know everyones strategy.

I love it when someone gets on my *** (when i go 25 mph past houses, kids dogs cats etc) and they flash their lights and honk...then i get to the 2 mile sections of hardly any houses...BYE BYE *** holeeeeeeeeeee! smoke them, then i get to more houses and repeat the process

I pass people on my road all the time, if they dont pull over at the first turnout im in the other lane making the one lane road into a two lane hwy 17 then they flash their lights at me and i turn mine off and drive using their lights, its pretty hilarious. even more funny when they are a truck that cant handle 20 mph turns when i can do them at 40 at the same safety level and they flash their lights like im wrong.

My dad will dust people out if theyre on his *** on our 20 minute 30 mph twistie commute. He will let the nice ones described above pass once we are passed the residential mtn houses.

I hardly have anyone come up on me on my roads, on other faster roads i will stick my hand out the window and tell them to pass in the opposite lane, if they dont, too bad, wait for a long turnout.

but yeah i wont make a train behind a slow person, i will pull over for a minute, have fun speeding up to their *** again, then i will repeat this and usually get them to pull over. everyone wins, i have fun driving, and they dont get as mad.

 

I'm fine with that..if thre's a line of cars ther's no point in pushing...but if three's ONE moron with the cruise on at 65MPH on the left lane slowing eveybody down..I'll push...or change lane and pass on the right.

 

What I hate also is the ONE moron cruising at 65mph in the left moving ONLY when I start to pass on the right. Then you're stuck in mid lane, waiting to see if they're gonna stay in the left lane or actually move.

Argghhhh

 

saw two ricers today in Gilroy going bout 100 and they changed 3 lanes at once and both of them almost crashed. i was hoping they would just go off the road and take themselves out for being dump drivers.
