Things you wish the other driver could hear, v3.0

That’s why I had to stop stashing pennies in the door handle. That’s the kind of jackass at whom I would have thrown pennies. Pennies ping real nice when bouncing off the bodywork and windows!

We ain’t got pennies no more.

Well, that sucks

Throw nickels then.

Had a taxi driver sat on my a$$ Tuesday afternoon in slow-moving traffic, and he was shouting obscenities at me.

I ignored him, can’t help that traffic was real sucky.

I have already hit a groundhog and a chunk of tire today. Please go easy on me for the last drive home of the day.

It takes doing something at least twenty times before it becomes a habit. I guess it’s too much to expect that if you’ve driven past the same exit on the freeway that is a perpetual bottleneck, you might try moving to a lane away from the off- and on-ramps so that you’re not contributing to the bottleneck.

PET PEEVE! PET PEEVE!

I know the rules say “slower traffic move right” but anywhere there are three or more lanes, I’d suggest that the right lane be reserved for oncoming and offgoing traffic.

Slower cars can have the middle.

Thirded. People do that shit all the time here.

You don’t get bonus points for passing a speed camera at 20kph under the limit.

If you are already 10kph under the speed limit YOU DON"T NEED TO SLOW DOWN!!!111ONEONEONE

Add to that:

I know the maximum legal unsigned speed here is 50 (km/h), however if the posted limit is 60 and there are at least three signs to that effect on the road then DRIVE AT 60. GRRR.

So, why are you having so much trouble staying in your lane? And… Is that a… duck in your back seat? It is! Why are you driving erratically with a duck in you back seat?

The duck appeared to be well behaved, but wasn’t in a cage or anything.

Gotta watch for those Duck Backseat Drivers.

$Wife semi-regularly carries wildlife to the nearby rehab (which is past our house if she’s coming from her work), but I promise it’s always in some sort of cage or carrier. No loose ducks in her car.

I totally get that.

A green light does not mean “STOP!”, you spaztard.

Heh, Geroge Carlin’s “My Brother Drives Like This” skit comes to mind…

Youtube video refers. Silly guy, running across the highway like that.

Could have been worse.

Did the driver say you can’t smoke in the car? Because otherwise, I’m not sure why you have your hand sticking out of the passenger window, holding a lit cigarette. We’re in stop and go traffic, but every time we go, the wind flowing by makes the cigarette burn a little faster. You’re not going to have much left in ten minutes.

Really, what’s it with my ass that you have to sniff it?

I don’t like to do brake checks, too dangerous, so I’ll just go slower and slower.

That’s actually the defensive driving thing to do and I use that method too.

The fact that it also annoys the crap out of the tailgater is just a bonus :wink:
