Tailgaters + Rear Fogs = Endless Enjoyment

[atomic]

In regards to getting tailgaters off my ass I have always resorted to opening the sunroof and flipping nickels or quarters up and out of the sunroof (dimes and pennies are not heavy enough). If done properly they can not tell you are doing anything and all the tailgaters thinks is that there are rocks being thrown up that is hitting their windshield.

I only resort to a brake check when needed...

Thanks for being the voice of reason, Jeff.



Likewise, without you this forum would fail to meet it's quota of having two separate administrators. What would we do then?



I'm self-righteous for not wanting to look like a dick and inciting another idiot driver? Sweet, I love your viewpoint in this matter.

Trey this self-rightous attitude you have and you pm'd me about since I was giving you shit about it some weeks back, so yes it's no wonder why so many forum members give you shit you stupid fuck... Grow up and get a fucking job and start being a contributing member, until then

Self-righteous? Getting a job? What the hell do either of those have to do with me not pissing off another driver? Your logic confuses me, and you sound extremely hypocritical telling me to be a "contributing member."

yeah i cant stand retards like you either. regardless if it was a residential neighborhood the logical thing to do would be to pull over and stop to let him by. let the local cops get him for speeding. you encite possible road rage or worse. you dont know who you are messing with, it could be the type of person to run you off the road, pull you out of your car and beat you senseless. but im sure you thought about that right?

you remind me of this dick on I5 north last night. im cruising at 80 in a 65 in the passing lane, far left on a 3 lane freeway. this moron in his SUV is doing 70ish. i come up behind him, he has a open middle lane for miles, i flash my brights at him real quick twice, he brake checks me. and he hit the brakes hard enough the front end dropped hard on the car. ok so now im pissed, but i have someone coming up on my right. now the dipshit speeds up and gets over. i want to see what this fucker looks like so i speed up, now he speeds up even more so i cant get next to him. i look down and were going close to 100mph. so i slow back down and hit the cruise at 80 again. he gets into the slow lane and gets stuck behind a semi and takes the exit. i stick my hand out the sunroof and flip him off as i go by and hes looking at me. truth be told i had some cupcakes in the back seat i wanted to catch him and put one or three right in his windshield and pray he lost control into the ditch.

so yeah i hate retards like you. go back to e30tech.

Wait wait, you're going to claim that his passive-aggressive actions are so terrible and then you turn around and tell us a story about being twice the douche (flashing brights is a great way to generate road rage), driving almost double the speed limit so you could "see what this fucker looks like" and throw a fucking cupcake at him?

What's it like being a 10 year old trapped in a middle aged adult's body?

i'm not really seeing how your story makes you look any better than japandrew. you tell him he should just pull over and let him pass when he is doing the speed limit in a residential area. technically, you were speeding, and shouldn't expect people who are already doing the speed limit or higher to move out of your way. if you really must get in front of them, why not change lanes and go around? why even bother to flip him off? that just makes you seem like an asshole, too.

For those of you just joining us, ill high light the critical info in bold just for you.

you remind me of this dick on I5 north last night. im cruising at 80 in a 65 in the passing lane, far left on a 3 lane freeway. this moron in his SUV is doing 70ish. i come up behind him, he has a open middle lane for miles, i flash my brights at him real quick twice, he brake checks me. and he hit the brakes hard enough the front end dropped hard on the car.

In case you dont get it, or missed that question on the driving test. The left lane on a 3 lane highway is not for CRUISING AT THE SPEED LIMIT. It is for people to pass slower traffic. If you doubt me, go to your local DMV.

To be honest, I am so goddamn sick of tailgaters that I am SERIOUSLY tempted to get a beater with a decent body, and just fish for gaters.. Basically just brake check the fucking shit out of them so they slam into me and I can collect on the insurance. It's their fault for following too close, and I thought I saw an animal on the side of the road or something? Maybe retards won't tailgate so much when the front of their $40,000 car gets destroyed by the bumper of a $500 car.

There is NO reason to tail gate someone, ever. Especially when you are in the right/middle lane on a 4 lane freeway with no traffic doing 70.

Im gonna guess and say youve never been rear ended in a vehicle. Well i have and it FUCKING SUCKS. I would not wish that pain on anyone. This is why people say watch out for people from washington and oregon, they dont know how to drive. its because morons like you that think like this.

If anyone involved in this moronic thread has ever driven in california you would understand much better. on I5 the average cruising speed is 85+. people going slow in the PASSING LANE move out of the way when you come up behind them.

The action of flashing ones brights is not to annoy, it is more so to get the other drivers attention. Because of the road rule ive listed above, if they are cruising slower than other traffic in a passing lane, they must not be paying attention.

and to end. throwing a cupcake or flipping someone off for almost causing me to hit their car is far less damaging than the dipshit that throws money out their roof. i cant see any member on this board being happy when a quarter chips their glass hellas or windshield. and i also doubt that anyone on here has never had the same experience where they have got stuck behind someone on the road and wished that person would get out of their way.

So just pass on the right. It's legal in Washington on the interstate. Give up on getting anyone in this state to observe passing lane laws. Carrying on and pining for California's high speed driving won't change a damn thing.

You argue about this as if it's some sort of recent revelation.

Lots of people simply don't care what the passing laws are here. Many just want a wide open lane to cruise in, and the left lane usually fits the bill.

Or they're a passive-aggressive shitstain who will react poorly when an aggressively-driven BMW driver flashes their brights instead of just going around them. Oh, wait, that's exactly what happened

Duh, we've all been behind someone who wouldn't get over from blocking the left lane. Doesn't mean that you should "teach them a lesson" or try to enforce the law.

The problem with your post is that you complained about the OP's actions being unsafe and likely to provoke road rage and then turn around and tell a great story advocating being a complete asshole who chose to behave in a manner that is more likely to generate an aggressive response or road rage.

They have nothing to do with pissing off another driver, but do in fact have A LOT to do with the uber amounts of worthless (aka "useful posts" per Janderson) that you contribute with your jackass wisdom...

hypocritical? Why don't you try posting outside of the Off Topic / General Discussion & member rides...

ohhh...who has cupcakes? I want one!

Move to Cali if they are so much better at driving. Actually just move, you are a fucking retard, get out of this state.

[Farbin Kaiber]

No, they are not. But if someone wants my spot in line in CA, come get it.

[balooshinakus]

You guys better watch out or I'm gunna throw sum cupcakes at you, that's how pissed I am HAHAHA.. Smonk is super hardcore.

Take a look at your last few posts and what subforums they were posted in, oh wise one.

:roll:

[Japandrew73]

well i think we've all learned from this thread that TDE30 and smonkbmw are the gods of R3V and that apparently my actions will cause road rage and destroy my community and eventually my car will be R3Vd.... yep i think that pretty much sums it up. of all the ways to ward off tailgaters mentioned in this thread mine has got to be the safest other than waving them to pass which actually allows them to continue faster and inevitably run over a 10 year old in the road.

[Farbin Kaiber]

You should ben carufel more so you don't have someone rearend your euro resto-mod-rod. There is a lot of rare I'd hate to see get totalled.
