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.

With my wife in the car:
1. Not replying with a smart-ass remark (this is a hard-learned habit as I desire a harmonious marriage) when my wife asks me
          a. why I'm following so closely
          b. do I know where I'm going
          c. did I know that we are low on fuel
          d. not to honk at other drivers when they adversely impact me as they may have a gun and shoot us
          e. not to speed up to see what the nationality and gender are (for my own informal survey) of the driver that almost crashed into us
          d. ...and I could go on....

With my daughter in the car:
2. Explaining to my daughter why the other driver (read: idiot) did what he did, and what he should have done to be safe.


And all alone in my '68 Charger:
3. Hanging my arm out the window and smiling way too much  :drive:

I'm always cranking my head at cute girls.  That gestgure usually isnt reciprocated.   :smilielol:

My dad taps on the roof of the Challenger while riding shotgun.  Drives me bonkers. 

I dont really have any bad habits.  I just enjoy driving.  More than most things. 

The whole kicking in the windshield thing, my cousin did the same exact thing.  To a friends windshield who he was pissed at.  Right in front of the cop shop.  I dont think he got a ticket, just had to pay for it.

I tap on the roof of the car when Im sitting at an intersection. I also start grumbling and swearing if I see people driving too slow/too fast/badly. Also I always drive with only my right hand on the wheel. The left hand just gets in the way, so it either stays in my lap, on the shifter or fondling the handbrake release button (RHD car)

when I'm a passenger, I like tap on the door panel very lightly and in direct relation to the speed we are going.  the faster we go, the faster we tap. My buddies are all motor heads like me so they hear the noise and go crazy trying to figure it out.  they think it's ujoints, a flat, whatever.

My habit is picking up girls.  :2thumbs:

Life isn't Father Knows Best anymore, it's a kick in the face on a saturday night with a steel toed grip kodiak work boot and a trip to the hospital all bloodied and bashed.....for reconstructive surgery. But, what doesn't kill us, makes us stronger, right?

nah man - I believe their rationale is "young kid in a hot rod...    i was doing the same thing when i was his age...   i'll cut him some slack"...     

My buddy...    well....      long story behind that one.

BTW - The most priceless expression is when you're pulled over by the LAPD and they casually ask "Do you have any guns or firearms in the car?" and you say "ummm   yes officer, i do."  - instant double take but the officers  :rofl:  ---  that was a long night to say the least...    many many questions like "Why do you need this many guns to go shooting?" "are you sure this AR-15 is legal?" "is this a 30 round magazine?" "Is that a surefire on your HK USP ?" and my favorite "DAMN!  This thing is heavy!" (discussing a 50 cal Desert Eagle)
