What are the chances of getting into an altercation like this with a gay dude? Thats the shock factor that wins the war.

Another thing I see a lot in the states, a lot of drivers even speed up when they see you coming around them, it's like those idiots want to go slow but dont want nobody to pass them. Hahaha
Childish? 100% agree on that, but it's more childish to put someone else's life in danger because you feel the need to be in a hurry and then proceed by riding someones ass. I will slow your day down, if you hit my car, then the blame is on the shit head that hit me. If I'm in the fast lane, I'm going fast, if there is a car ahead of me, being 5 yards behind my bumper won't make things move faster.


And that my friend, is the American way.

Well, from my experience, the gay's seem to be very vocal if something bothers them, so I wouldn't be surprised if they saw your boner as an action of friendship after your altercation.

That is what bugs me the most. You get these dipshits who ride your ass in the left lane, when you're actively passing those in the right (i.e. going faster than them), and you're stuck behind someone else and can't really go anywhere.

They can ride my ass all they want, I'm usually driving my truck so they aren't getting by. I will move over when I can to let them go though. Let the cop up ahead pull them and not me.

Overall, I may cuss or something, but I don't fly off the handle. I find it's better to just let the situation go away. I certainly don't want to have to even show my weapon... If it gets to that point, then I already let it go too far.

Dear God. I'd be afraid if my SO drove anything larger (or faster) than what she has.


I have to repress my feelings on her driving habits, so anytime we go anywhere, I drive, for the sake of my own sanity.

Vocal definitely but physical enough to actually stop and get off for an old fashioned boner fight? Highly unlikely.

I guess if you really want to divert the situation in your favor, you should carry around a 16'' double donger and use that as your attack weapon. No straight man would dare mess with anyone swinging a johnson, just not worth it.


However, if you happened to stumble into the one butchy angry lesbian in your town, you might have a new escalated situation on your hands.

I'm the same freaking way. Sometimes I wonder how she has managed to survive behind the wheel all these years.

For the love of Christ, I'm pretty sure I'm going to put a hole through her floor board from smashing the invisible brake pedal. She is my DD, unfortunately she is cheaper than a cab ride.

Why don't you connect two of those dongers together and make some nunchucks

Too many firearms out there these days. Unless I feel threatened I just mind my biz and keep on going.

i think if you and her were ever to be on the same stretch of road, you will definitely find each other as natural road-rage attracting targets

And that my friend, is the American way.
Most left lane hogs are too dumb to know the American way is not that different from European traffic laws. 99% of the time there's no one in front of the guy who thinks it's fun to impede traffic or act like a vindictive bitch.

I drove my 335i into a dangerous neighborhood because premium unleaded is 7 cents cheaper per gal.

As I was leaving, some ***** ***** starts yelling at me. I kept my eyes straight ahead, and ignored them, until some dude in the pass seat that looked like a ***** ****** threw a bottled water and hit my pass window. I put it down and words flew.

One thing I realized, that unlike when I was 19 and ready for Donny Brooks anywhere I went, this time I didn't want to get into it.

But just to put the idiotic ***** ******* into context, they said, just because you have a nice car you think you can come here into our neighborhood for gas?

Yep, WTF. But who has more to lose? And a 2007 335i is nice to them, it's junk and out-dated on this forum.

When I see road rage, I back off immediately. My car and my life are more important than revenge.

Never had a problem with road rage and pulling over. I've gotten the finger and such but I usually just give a thumbs-up back (which REALLY pisses them off and makes them speed away). Most of the fights I've been involved in happened long before I made it to the car.
