Wondering why everyone is going slower than the speed limit.

Slamming on my brakes when someone is riding my ass.

My worst habbit: When someone cuts me off I have to cut them off in return  ::)

Yes I have had lots of accidents but NEVER had a claim. My last accident was a hit and run. The guy hit me then took off. I chased him down and totaled both out the rest of the way when I caught him. He got 7 tickets and I got one for chasing him :D

Making lane changes on a four lane, without signalling. :rotz:
I drive over 1000 miles a week, most of it at over 70mph.
I drive my car as if I'm driving a sport bike, weaving around traffic.
Of course, I see the other drivers as brainless drones. And they probably see me as a reckless maniac.
I've been driving for 30 years, and have never caused an accident. Or had a claim.

I've been known to tailgate (just a little bit). But when I started driving newer cars, I got extremely anal about stone chips and even more aware of my bad habits :eek2: .....When I see a new stone chip I go nuts.  :pullinghair:

My biggest problem is that I crawl up peoples asses at the stop light.  I know its bad...and I'm currently in therapy for it.  :P 

By the way Daria, thanks for starting this thread.....and please don't think I discriminate. Even if your NOT cute,  I'll still crawl up your ass at the stoplight.  :icon_smile_big: :icon_smile_big: :icon_smile_big:

When people want over but dont put their blinkers on I dont let them in.

I mean honestly, its right effing there. You have to move a FINGER :brickwall:. They never fail to give me a disgusted look when I pass them either, like I'm the one being a douche.

My only habits are leaving a lot of distance for braking since I drive the Charger and my brothers Pathfinder 50/50 and accelerating front stop lights up to the speed limit fast. I also hate how late most automatic transmissions downshift so I give them more gas to make them. And I find myself taking the Pathfinder out of 4wd to 2wd in the snow since its more fun. And I get terrified on country roads unless I am driving since the crash.

ummmm    bad habit while driving...       I would say speeding...   dont do it as recklessly as i used to...   I got pulled over 19 times in high school...    never got a ticket...    64mph in a 25 zone once...     that could have been bad...

another bad habit it - i have a bit of road rage when it comes to old people / girls doing make up / people talking on phones / or people just driving slow...   



My buddy takes the cake though....     someone cut him off once and he went through the roof...    sped up and cut the guy off...     the guy proceeds to honk his horn, give the bird, and give say something about my friend's mom (who is deceased) at the stop light behind us...    so my friend (in his infinite wisdom) gets out of the car - calmly walks up to the guys hood...    walks up ONTO the hood and kicks in the guy's windshield multiple times - calmly walks back - gets in the car and drives away  like nothing happened...    and yes I saw this whole thing...       pretty remarkable to say the least.
