always getting passed on highway ?!!?

[bmwstephen]

i have one of those "baby on board" stickers on my rear windshield. definitely noticed that no one tailgates me anymore, unless its some dumbass in an SUV who either cant read english or their car is so damn high for them to notice

[87-325ic]

I've noticed every E30 I've owned/driven (a whopping 3) has been around 2-3 mph off at 25, 5mph off at 45, and 5-7mph off at 55-70. I cruise at 75mph and my GPS speedo says I'm doing 70mph. I cruise at 62mph and my GPS speedo says I'm doing 55.

right.

this is why i never got a ticket in my e30, til my speedometer broke.

Eh I usually brake check them by pulling up the parking brake so it doesn't show light's and by any chance one day they crash into me I'm going to say didn't you see that dog in the road lol

M10 w/ 4.27 here.100km/h is really 91km/h (62 is 57mph).

Seems all E30s are around 5 mph under. If im going 65 i keep up with people doin 60, im running 15s with my stock wheels it seemed more off, like 7-10mph

All of the speed signs from here to Los Gatos agreed with my GPS speedo. No clue why the 3 cars I have are so off, lol.

(91 318iS, 91 318i, 88 325iC)

Mines within 1-2 mph of my GPS, stock tire size, I think. Speed signs are about the same as well.

Odometers read over the actual speed so that you can't use the manufacturer as an excuse for speeding.

[a3ternus]

Yeah, good idea, flash your brights at them too when they pass!

Or you could just let them go about at their own speed rather than driving like an idiot.

LOL I was joking man! Relax!

or if you have a gun shoot them in the head as they pass you.

[MPD47]

LOL People are stupid.Just ignore assholes who tailgate
or let them pass and tailgate them in return
(whatever you feel like at the moment)! :P

If you live in California and drive anything under 80 mph then you will be tailgated or pulled over by the CHP for impeding traffic flow. Just FYI.....

This is so true.:up:
