Why do SUV drivers feel so entitled to...

DRIVE SO FAST! And ride your bumper (aka redass) you if you have the audacity to *gasp* drive the speed limit? I have to drive the SL b/c I"ve already received 2 tickets ($300 each), soooo I really cannot afford to speed up. What gives these people the right to be the "bullies" of the road? There are 3 other LANES for them to proceed recklessly in. Must they stay in the right lane and harass everyone? I can't wait until one of them hits me, I'm so going to get a new car at their expense!

    If there are three other lanes than I would assume you're on a highway. If they are riding your *kitten*, you're probably in the fast lane. GTFO of the fast lane.

    That's what it means when someone rides your *kitten* here anyways...

    Also.. a nice trick if someone is riding your *kitten*, drive onto the side road a bit where all the rocks are and it will spit them at their car. They will back off pretty fast.

    Dani, the "right lane" is the "slow lane".

    on 3 lane highways usually the center lane is the slow lane. The right lane is for passing whle avoiding people passing on the left...

    Jeep and Bronco owner....my need for speed is fulfilled by wearing a skullcap, leathers, and flipping off the cops as I ride by 20+

    Or you can open a sunroof (if you have one) and flick pennies out of it so it hits their windshield.

    EDIT: not sure where you live, but you will get a ticket if you pass on the right here.

    I like choosing that moment to turn on my windshield wipers, with spraying fluid :bigsmile: :devil:

    I like to turn on my windshield wipers for a quick high-speed washing. It always works on the freeway/highway to get cars to back off my *kitten*.

    I ain't here reporting how it should work, I'm reporting how it actually works. The center lane always gets backed up because people are staying out of the fast lane and avoiding exiters/mergers.

    Really? Did not know this... I thought it was always illegal to pass on the right? (unless, of course, you are in another country where they drive on the left...)

    Ignore the speed limit and stay with the flow of traffic. You won't get a ticket and your won't have someone riding your *kitten*. It's a win - win.

    Slow traffic get in the right lane. Seriously. Although in your case it just seems like the driver is being stupid and THEY need to move over. It's not that hard. But it bugs me when someone is driving under the speed limit or slow in the fast lane.

    If some *kitten* does this to me in the right lane then I break check them, someone rear-ended me when I did it once, guess who paid for the damage? I actually have horrible road rage, there are a lot of horrible drivers out there. But it's not just SUV driver they just have confidence BC they have big cars!

    If you're not going to drive fast then move the hell over and stop complaining. (not directed to OP lol just people in general)

    Left lane is the PASSING lame not the drive the speed limit lane.

    I suggest staying out of Boston if you're one of those people does that haha you'd hate it here

    I've never heard that either. In Missouri, that is NOT the case. You are not supposed to pass on the right here.

    Yeah, you'll show them when they hit you and total your car with you in it (and hopefully no children).

    That makes too much sense! :wink:

    I love the blanket statement that reserves bad driving to just SUV drivers. You need to pay more attention to your surroundings, and you'll see bad drivers are in every form of vehicle.
