Pulling out

If people are in such a hurry that they've gotta cut you off and pull out in front of you making you smash the brakes, why do they drive so slow afterwards?

Somebody please help me, there's gotta be some kind of answer for this....

lol.... i thought you ment PULLING OUT..... as in keeping your girlfriend from being pregnet..... lol after all your sn is SPOOGENET :/ ya my mind is in the gutter.


people dont obay the Driving Ediquet (sp) of today....

1) SLOWER TRAFFIC KEEP RIGHT.
2) use your friggen signals
3) dont talk on your cell and drive at the same time
4) if there is two lanes of traffic.... dont go the same speed as the person beside you
5) it doesnt hurt to let someone in front of you sometimes.
6) traffic is traffic. your not going to get there any faster if you weave in and out.

feel free to add more

lets face it...many many people have zero driving skill...

People pull out because they think that if they dont make a move really fast they might have to wait there forever...but then after they get out they made a huge scene doing it so they think by driving slow theyre being inconspicuous (hope I spelled that right)...when in fact theyre drawing more attention to themselves.
Its the same thing that people do when theyre speeding along and they see a cop...they slam on the brakes causing the car to lift up higher in the rear and the front to drop...yeah...they cop doesnt see that one from a mile away...OR (at night) the huge area of red that your brake lights caused when you slammed on em hoping not to be seen... sure...that works

ROFL, when I saw PULLING OUT I thought that he meant it in "that" way too! I don't really know why people cut other people off and then just go really slow. Yesterday, we were stuck behind some dude on a 10 speed that was going 25 in a 45 and he was right in the MIDDLE of the road. And he would not get out of the way and my BF was all like "Not only am I stuck behind this guy but I have to stare at his ass too!"...it was so funny.

I am getting a sticker on my front windshild backwards that reads "SLOWER TRAFFIC KEEP RIGHT" (backwards, that way it can be read when looking through the rear-view mirror).
But I hate it when someone pull out in front of me when you're cruising along. Once someone did that, I panic'ed, and flat-spotted both front tires and barely missed them. $90 down the drain :\

But see half the time that it happens to me there's nobody in my rear view, hasn't been anybody in my rear view, and cuz I'm getting cut the f*ck off won't be anybody in my rear view.

It's harder to get a gun than it is to be licensed to use or misuse a 3000 lb. object that is involved in far more deaths in a year than any gun or other weapon. Some people just have no respect for themselves, their property, their money, or that of anybody else when they drive. It's truly amazing how some of the "nicest, best" people are also some of the rudest and unsafe drivers on the roads.....grrrrrrrrr.

What a bunch of guttered minds....no wonder I like it here so much.
