Bad Drivers

I know that everyone feels this way, but I seem to attract the worst drivers in surbubvan Melbourne! About two weeks ago, some guy was driving a red Porsche as incredibly slow speeds, and was actually rolling backwards down a hill whenever he stopped moving. After a while, when I was right behind him, and I realised that he'd been driving slowly because his two rear tyres were completely flat! This is only one occurence, and I have a truckload of stories, but I am getting sick of bad drivers! Anyone else have any stories to share? Of course you do!

American Drivers won't back up an inch, even if a tractor trailer or school bus is trying to turn. Or they'll try to take a parking space when you're still in it and nto even let you out. Then both drivers will exchange the "Unofficial American Wave" If you know what I mean.

i believe the the word you are looking for is "sub-urban"

i hate slow drivers! especially old slow drivers!
in my opinion, everyone has to retake ther drivers license test once they turn 60, then take it every 5 years after that. cause people who cant drive the speed limit shouldnt be on the road

Hey Wolfy, my computer froze for a minute and I thought your world stopped spinning!

Wolfy, "suburbvan" was a subtle pun. I was wondering whether or not anyone would get it.

I would have to agree that regular driving tests should be held for everyone at least every five to ten years. Maybe then, driving would be seen as a privilege, and not a right.

Anyone over 70 shouldn't be driving anyway, theyre uniformly cr*p and are a menace on the road.

How about the one who tailgates, is all over the road, but whips into the teachers parking lot at an elementery school. Scary thought with someone who has road rage teaching your kids?

Hey, I know a few of those.

It was like a question on my last science test (I changed the name):
Mr. Jackson's new Hummer can accelerate from 0 to 100 mph in 3.2 seconds. What is the acceleration of my new car.

Tailgaters are the worst, I almost will them into rear ending me now. That way it'll be nice and legal for me to punch their lights out and claim temporary insanity.

You should have to take driving tests every 5 years or something to get all the old people and people who don't know how to drive off the friggin road. None of this "graduated licencing" crap.

Oh I got a solution for Tailgaters, Just tap the break pedal a little bit when They are following you. Soon after that if you do it a couple of times, They will stop

Sod the tailgaters, get rid of the little [censoreds who insist on driving through narrow country roads... at breakneck speeds... at night... with their hi-beams on... then forget to turn them off when another car comes, almost causing a crash
