These mfers are the worst. You're trying to keep a safe distance and they change lanes right into your buffer zone. The only way to prevent it is to drive faster, defeating the purpose of the buffer zone in the first place.

Real scumbag driving.

Once it's done though, the only recourse is road rage retaliation or else just get over it.

I hate this, and it is much worse in Louisiana - probably because we're only two lanes in the interstate most of the way. In my Vette, my primary goal is to not get rock dings in my bumper or cracks in the windshield. Don't care about people riding my bumper or crap like that. I just want to drive fast and keep my car looking nice. I try to keep space in front of me, but some ahole always jumps in no matter how small the gap is. The main reason I speed and weave through traffic is to find a clear spot up ahead. I surf the gaps, baw.

When a vette is behind me, I tend to drive on the shoulder, all while spraying rocks.

sounds like all of the early morning people driving west on I-10 exiting at Port Allen are posting in this thread...

regular wrecks when two decide to get into the middle lane to exit at that same time...

When you are not holding up traffic in the fast line. Full speed, any lane, not even during a merge. I am talking about drivers who will get in front of you when there is barely more than a car length between you and the car in front of you. How do you handle these morons? I hate them with a passion. I am looking for new ways to handle these idiots in the morning. This post was edited on 7/30 at 8:28 pm


So you tailgate people while going 75 and you are calling other people assholes? Seriously...one car length at 75??? Dumbass!

I like to play games to keep myself sharp. Like remember ever license plate around me and think if its a car I've seen before. I like to anticipate what other cars are doing.

I must not be driving too bad lately, no ones called me to bitch about my driving in two months. Seeing that I have my number in six inch letters on the back of my truck, this used to be a daily occurrence. lol

Why waste a lucky shooter? An empty beer bottle gets the job done.

If someone did that to me I would fall back, follow them home and then come back a month later and burn their house down with the doors fixed shut.

If only everyone could do this. I hate the woman that rides your arse, then when you get over, they realized they were going faster than they wanted to and camp in your blindspot.

On I-10 Today, no one will anticipate. Texas people will not use cruise. Women will never leave the left lane nor use cruise. Jacked up trucks will ride everyone's arse. There will also be a cop every 10-20 miles.
The only solution is to lose your sense of urgency, accept the fact you will not go faster than 75, and copious amounts of Ganja.

I find Mississippi people to be the worst. They just cruise and cruise and never get out the way and are the first to rage if you pass on the right.

Twat.

If you block me, I'll pass on the shoulder and brake check the frick out of you while laughing maniacally and dialing *LSP to call in your plate number, description, and that you're not maintaining speed/impeeding the flow of traffic.

Don't ever go to the Dominican. They don't even need a full car length to try, they'll just bank on you letting them in. Also, pedestrians literally could not care less about traffic. They'll leisurely walk through traffic without even glancing around at their surroundings.

Not exactly on topic but I just saw two idiots having a road rage incident on Airline at Hammond aire. A guy in a lexus and an a-hole in a 4x4 tundra decided to endanger everyone on the road with their stupid bullshite.
