    I drive down a road some days for fun. Takes 30 minuiteslonger than the highway, but it`s a fun scenic drive.



    It has curves, trees, widee open fields, ,and hills.



    A small road T bones the road I drive on. It happens right over the top of a hill. The speed limit is 50, and when you comne over that hill you have no clue what to exptect.



    Last week there was somone halfway in my lane trying to get onto the road I was on. How easy is it to slow down from 50 to 0 wehn your going down a hill, and only have 100 or less feet? I nearly ripped the front end off theri car!



    This happens all the time.

    I once heard from a smoker (my dad) that if you never use the ashtray in your car, and make sure to de-odorize the interior real well just before you go to sell/trade in your car, the dealers may not notice/know the car was smoked in, and thus it will raise your resale value.....



    its still rude.....





    plus, I`ve heard of forest fires starting by smokers throwing cigarettes out the window... catch some brush on fire alongside the road and it just spreads....

    Please don`t generalize, though . . . I smoke (not in the car), and I get just as peeved as you do when others toss their butts out the window. Not all smokers are rude in this way, and those that are just perpetuate the stereotype.

    Here`s my fav peeve. When I`m on the road to college, I see this alot. People who are im front of you and can`t seem to maintain there speed at a constant. You know, they vary there speed by like 5 mph or something, or sometimes greater than 5!! Either they just don`t know how to drive, don`t know how to use the cruise control or just don`t care.



    Here`s another one I see alot too. Say your going 60, cruise is set and you havn`t touched the pedals for a good 10 miles. Then you approach an intersection, the light is green and your still just crusing right along when someone pulls out in front of you and goes slower than you want to go!!!!!!!! :angry

    I hate it when the knucklehead in front of me doesn`t realize the light is green and then finally takes off when the light is yellow to leave me stranded another 5 minutes under a red light! AAAAAAAAAARGGGGGGHHH!:angry

    What is really funny is that they seem to think that if the ashtray looks like it has never been used that no one will be able to tell they`ve smoked in their car. I can usually smell the stench even before the doors are opened.

    I hate driving with and behind people who are too terrified to pass a slow moving police car that is in the right lane. They are just cops.:nixweiss

    I hate that too. It amazes me that people are not intellegent enough to realize if the cop is driving below the speed limit, it is legal to pass them as long as you don`t exceed the speed limit yourself.

    1) People who insist on driving slow in the fast lane. I think it`s great that you`re retired and no longer have anyplace to be but I have to be at work/drop the kids at daycare/ pick-up my daughter at Girls Scouts/ am late for class/etc. and you`re messing up the program. MOVE!



    2) People who have to have at least 3 miles clear distance to enter traffic. Hello MORON! It`s the year 2003 and chivalry is dead. I too have lamented it`s passing but it`s time to move on and into traffic aggressively. MOVE!



    3) Have you ever seen an Expedition/Excursion/Sequoia with anything more than one or two passengers? Rarely is the answer. How many times have you had to wait 20 minutes for some 5`2", 90 Lb, cute little soccer mom to get her oversized SUV out of the parking spot she happened to wedge it into (sideways no doubt)? I also have to deal with the redneck factor in similar situations. Billy Joe Bob just had to have that 4X4 Ford, F-250, crewcab, Duelly, Diesel, longbed pickup. Problem is he`s more hat than horse and hasn`t had anything bigger than some golf clubs in the bed. Fine with me if you have more dollars than sense but why should I have to wait for an eternity for you to get outta my way at Walmart. MOVE! then sell it if it`s too much vehicle for ya.



    I could go on forever but I`ll stop before I hurt myself. Thanks for the opportunity to vent.
