road ethics
I am appalled at the lack of road ethics shown by people. For example, people would travel in the exit lane to avoid traffic, then get back into lane right at the end. I hate these people. There is something wrong with them. We all justify our stupid actions but it really is a reflection of our character. Stop being a jerk!

Or people who see the Right lane ends 1 mile sign and stays in the right line right up until it ends and then expects someone to let them in....0

Awesome. It took penishead and didn't * it out.0

Ethics? I doubt it's lack of ethics, it's a lack of a proper drivers education and general "head up their butt" syndrome.0

Maybe you could get one of those knobs for your steering wheel. That might help. I saw one in a movie.0 -
I am a very courteous driver, until someone pisses me off, then I do whatever I can to not let them over, or generally irritate them right back. There is one area by where I live in Ohio on 77 South that has an on ramp followed quickly by an exit. It is very tight. Morons love to travel in the far right lane, what the hell?? Drive in the midle lane until you are past this area unless you are getting OFF at that exit!! It really boils my blood at that spot inparticular. :explode: Actually, in general if you know there is a busy on ramp coming up, just GET OVER so you don't have to worry about letting anyone on the highway! i was taught that in driver's ed

Disagree - the way you conduct yourself on the road (and in public in general) is a reflection of how your parents brought you up, and your general lack of manners.0 -
My latest driving pet peeves:
1. People who take roughly 47 years to switch lanes or turn. Just get out of the way already.
2. People who take their sweet time cruising up to an intersection until the light changes from green to yellow and then floor it, leaving you to catch the red light.0 -

I totally agree with you. You can tell how sensible and considerate people are by the way they drive.0 -
My young kids call those kind of drivers "bad bananas." It takes away my road rage like that *snaps*0

I'm one of those guys. Not only do I NOT care what you think of my driving, I HATE the fact you drive like a scared little ... I don't even know. How about you worry about your own driving, improve your situational awareness on the road, and drive like you actually want to get wherever you're going. By the way, I only need 3 inches on either side to jump the gap between you and the car ahead of you (though you might be the type that leaves 3 football fields). It's not wreckless, it's knowing how to drive like you have a clue how to actually handle the 3k pound machine you've been entrusted with.
You want road ethics, how about you don't add an extra half hour to my commute, mmmk?0 -
I really love the &*)(*%$ who shove the phone in their ear or text while holding up traffic. I have on more than one occasion, when spying them texting, lay on my horn and make them jump the red light! LOL If youre one them and youre reading this please now how I loathe you. LOL0

^^ YES. I wish this had a like button0 -
Yeah - this gets on my nerves too. If I didn't have a highly developed appreciation for living, I would race them to the end. LOLOr people who see the Right lane ends 1 mile sign and stays in the right line right up until it ends and then expects someone to let them in....0 -

I HATE THIS!!!! I will speed up, slow down, do anything possible to NOT let them in. Then flip them off when I pass them.0 -
The irony is that these are the deep dish pizzas who are actually causing the delays by trying to get into the lane at the end. But they have a low IQ to go with their poor manners for them to realize it. High correlation between the two.0

I ran across you one night on HWY 87 beach road coming out of Sabine Pass. Narrow 2 lane, dark, lonely and no one for miles.
You blew by me and could barely hold it on the road. About 8 minutes later I pulled over when I saw you in the mosquito infested marsh, 75 feet off the road. Swinging wildly at the ravenous marsh mosquitoes you asked if I could get a cell phone connection cuz you where out of range. As I got back in my ride I told you it sure wasnt gonna be your night and drove off. Later tater. LOL0 -

ME TOO!!!!!!! I will sit on the car in front of mine's butt to keep them out... my mini road rage it totally pisses me off like their time is more valuable than anyone else's??????? *kitten*0 -

that's cute, but you should stick to non-fiction. anyways, drivers who typically run to the end of the exit lane to jump back are usually more aware of traffic than the majority of the other drivers and almost certainly not distracted on their phones.0 -
You wicked, wicked woman. I love it. LOL0 -
Mine is people who dodge between cars and nearly cause wrecks to get where they are going...and then get stuck one car ahead of me at a red light! Got you so far, huh big guy? :laugh:0

I say troll. If not, very poor road ethic. If you dont realize it, you should work on self-awareness. Good day!0 -

pay attention next time you're in traffic and you're crying about the guy taking advantage of a wide open lane that goes on for 2 miles to get past you. if he is in fact heading down to the end of the lane and jumping back in to traffic without hesitation into the first available gap, he isn't distracted. if he's taking 3 weeks to merge back in, begging for someone let him in, then he's either asleep or on his cell phone.
I'm not trolling, I commute an hour and a half each day. Want to know what I consider back road ethics?
1. Creating a road block with the car next to you for miles on end
2. Camping out in the left lane with someone coming up behind you. I don't care how fast you're going, if someone is coming up faster than you, you move. I'm not always the fastest down the highway, I move.
3. Talking on your cellphone or texting, at any time except a solid red light up until the point the other light turns yellow
4. Not having a clue what is going on around you
5. Drifting into the opposing lane or not using your indicators
6. Running red lights
7. Leaving 3 car lengths in front of your car and not matching the rate of acceleration of the car ahead of you (real reason for highway congestion)
8. Leaving 3 car lengths in front you and then tapping your brakes for absolutely no reason
9. Dump trucks spilling gravel all over the road
If every single driver on the road focused on getting to their destination as efficiently as possible, we wouldn't need to keep adding lane after lane to our highways. Instead, everybody is worried about their phone conversations, their book, and every other distraction that you can possibly imagine. So like I said, how about you focus on the road as a whole and stop worrying about being skipped0 -
Too much testosterone up in here...I'm sceeeered and need hugs.
