Rural Driving...

Ok, so I just made a post about city driving, but something just happend that has provoked me to make this post.

So I'm driving along the country highway doing 55 in a 55 mph zone after taking a few hits off our one hitter when I get behind some idiot who keeps tapping on his breaks and doing 25 around curves you could easily do 40 around (that's being cautious.) So than I get to one of the few passing zones and get in the opposite lane to pass him and he fucking floors it. I'm doing 60 now and he just keeps going faster. So I hit my brakes and fall back in behind him and as soon as we hit another turn he starts his shit again. WTF!?

It isn't just the city. Crappy drivers are everywhere. I swear, I can't wait till the day we have flying cars with autopilot. People are to stupid to be trusted with cars... Hand it over to a computer...

Unfortunately, people make computers. My computer always has something wrong with it. If it's not one thing, it's another. I wouldn't trust my life to a computer.

I try not to let other people;s driving get the best of me. Changes are you'll only be sharing the road with that person for a very sort period of time and will never make contact with that driver ever again for the rest of your life, More that likely.

If I'm in the fast line and I see someone driving really fast down on me, I just move to the other lane.

Life is still sort to get worked up about driving, Just fire up your bowl or spark your jay, Turn on some nice tunes and relax.

I drive so much better high.

I always get pissed off while driving. I can't stand getting stuck behind someone on a two way hwy and can't pass them because they speed up when I do. Not to mention the jackasses that go way to fast on a road that it isn't safe on or in bad weather. I have really bad road rage, which is the main reason I don't carry a gun in my car.

seconded, and i have always thought that....

i hate it when 2 equally slow people go 50 mph on the highway RIGHT NEXT TO EACH OTHER so no one can pass them

dude just deal w/ it. maybe he was blazed. i was driving right after i smoked about an hour ago and i noticed i was goin hella slow all the time.

I understand you completly. I live in a rural area and it seems that people are either over cautious or completly wreckless. I hate it when your behind someone and they are poking along and speed up when you pass them. That happens to me more on the interstate than anything. I got behind someone the other day the speed limit is 70 and Im barley doing 65 so I decide that Im going to pass them, and they speed up. This really really pisses me off so I floor it and I can see the other person over there laughing thinkng its a joke. I wanted to ram his car off the road so bad. I was so frustrated I wasnt going to give up and floored it myself and passed his ass and then slowed down like a snail when I got back in front of him. And would not let him pass me.

In the rural area that I live in there is alot of old people. I think its the place in the county where all the old people go to retire or something. Anyways alot of them cant drive. They leave there turn signals on for a mile before they turn, and they either drive really slow or really fast and take up the whole road in a curve.

Another thing about interstate drivers that kill me is the ones who are going 15 over the speed limit and are lane hoping trying to pass everyone. I just love it when I see one comming and there is a 18 wheeler in the other lane. I love to close that gap and get them stuck behind the truck.

I love closing gaps too. Also when the fast lane is moving a little slow, but still faster than the slow lane and some jackass thinks he will just swing into the slowlane for a sec and get in front of what ever car is slowing things down. I close up the spot he was holding and laugh when he just has to fall in somewhere behind me because he couldn't make it around.

I just don't think driving slower is much safer though. I would rather keep up with traffic somewhat than have a bunch of assholes flying by me.

People average about 85 mph on a perticular stretch of an interstate here when the speed limit is 70. I usually go about 77 so I don't have some douch pile into the back of me.

I can't drive slow and pay more attention when I am speeding. If there is someone going "too" slow in front of me, I will usually ride there ass until they either speed up of pull over so I can get by.

Ok. that is within reason.

Sorry I know people that will do 15 under the posted limit and think they are actually being safer.

I love it when that happens to those road hogs. I was watching comice view and this guy said everyone license plate number should be there cell number so you can call them and let them know how they cut you off or dim your light, turn off your signal light and so on. That is a good idea at first but can you imagine how many harassing phone calls some people would get. I think it would still be funny.
