I usually let this stuff go, but after today, I've had enough.

This is approximately the 5th time someone has almost ran me off the road. People who don't f'n look when they are changing lanes.

I was on my way to the vet to pick up my dog. 4 lane road, 55mph speed limit. I'm in the far left lane minding my own listening to music, when the Suburban next to me starts coming into my lane with it's blinkers on. Litterally inches from my passenger door, I yanked the wheel and was forced off the road. Honking my horn, half of the car still on the road, the other half on gravel, going 60mph. The dumb bitch finally realizes that I'm there and swerves back into her lane.

I managed to regain control and bring the whole car back on the road.I was so angry, that I held onto the horn for almost 1 min. Just stayed right next to her giving her the finger and honking my horn.

Honestly I'm so sick and tired of people who do this. All 5 times, they have been women. I'm not sexist, but numbers don't lie, they can't ****ing drive. They're out to kill me.

Explains why motorcyclists are killed every day. Was she on the phone? Some of these women shouldn't be driving such big vehicles. They just CANT. That and people on the phone ALL the time. Ok it is fine if you can drive with the phone to your ear all the time but sheesh, some folks need to HANG UP. WHY should WE HAVE TO WAIT WHILE THEY SLOW DOWN TO CHECK THEIR APPOINTMENT BOOKS OR LOSE CONCENTRATION ON DRIVING!!

Some jackass in an old beat up early '90's 3-series pulled into my lane one time when I was doing 60 and ran me out of my lane. I blew by him, then stopped in my lane. He slowed down and didn't come near my car; staying in behind me. We got to the next light, and he wouldn't pull up next to me. So when we both made the turn I tried slowing down again, this time doing 20 in a 45. He still slowed down and wouldn't get next to me.

That REALLY pissed me off, because I just wanted to ask him why he felt it was necessary to try and kill me by driving like a dumbass. But he didn't even have the balls to get near me so I could say anything.

Funny thing you mentioned that. That same thing happened to me. I wanted to confront the guy and he wouldn't get next to me. lmfao I was going so slow. F'n pussies.

Paul, I know what you're sayin. We make mistakes too right, everyone does. But the majority (not all) of women out there, they've got a false sense of reality. I guess its because MOST men appreciate/respect machines more and know their limits and capabilities.

I have never been run OFF the road, but I have come damn close. Sometimes I just want to grab that knife with the 14 inch blade from under my seat, and throw it at them.

And yet they have lower insurance rates for some reason. I know a girl my age that drives a 98 Cobra and she pays about half what I pay for my 95 GT.

I thought I broke the steering wheel one day when some old woman pulled out right in front of me going 20 in a 45. I pushed so hard on the wheel it went back into the dash. (Mazda3) Luckily I just did the telescoping wheel thing without undoing the latch. That was possibly the worst trip of my life....The normally 20-25 minute drive ended up taking about 35 minutes. And of course I was in a hurry and already in a pretty bad mood when I started.

I could rant for hours about all the horrible drivers around here....

That is one thing I will never understand. Women always want to be treated as equals, and that is a very sexist thing to do.

Yeah, I really don't get why they have lower insurance rates than us.

Is it because there are less women drivers? I guess a lot of them can't pass the behind the wheel test.

I think its because men are more "daring" behind the wheel. Meaning we will do more controlled stuff like burnouts and donuts but them, well they just hit people.

Once i was driving on the right lane , stupid tractor-trailor who was in the center lane decided to just switch the lines when i was in the middle of him , I could try new hot tricks from fast & furious and just duck under that truck or hit the curb. I hit the f@ckin' curb doing ~55 and my right front tire exploded and the rim bended. *****head just keep an rollin'.

Whenever I drive by one of them I fear that same thing will happen again.

BTW be careful guys. Not kidding, in my state (just the facts):

"I held onto the horn for almost 1 min. Just stayed right next to her giving her the finger and honking my horn."

That CAN get you up to 10 years in jail AND a $5,000 fine. Unfortunately what she did has no consequence because it is considred an accident/unintentional and no one got hurt. What you did was assault in some jurisdictions. If she got your plate she could potentially can go right down to the comissioners office and file an assault charge on you, take you to court state vs YOU. YOU pay the fines and fees and potentially get a first class jail cell. Not kidding, seen it happen. Best scenario is to watch your temper on the roads guys.
