f***tard drivers around

[recycledsixtie]

Noted the perps trying to race. But I find with a low car what happens completely unexpectedly is a car changing lanes and not seeing me. Of course I jump on the brakes and brake straight ahead. What I really need is a JD yellow car and a really loud exhaust but I don't have either. Many drivers don't shoulder check and coz the Box sits lows it is vulnerable. Always have an out.....

Yup, I've had a large pickup push me completely into the shoulder at 70 MPH. If I didn't move, he would have side-swiped me. The stupid thing is, I would have easily been past him by the coming merge, not affecting him at all. I guess I somehow issued an unspoken challenge !

My wife says people are nastier when she drives my car, and co-workers have admitted to routinely cutting off high-end cars, just because.

Kooks and loons are everywhere and I just quietly separate myself from them. Nothing good will ever come from a 4 wheel gunfight on public roads. On Halloween I was on the job when a car changed 3 lanes and nearly clipped the front of my truck. I hit the brakes hard and moved into the center shoulder to avoid contact. It was a thrashed Dodge Neon and it would have been far worse for him than me if he made contact.

Stuff happens.

I am trying this solution & it helps with being seen except in case of LEOs.

Unfortunately for better or often times worse it illicits very emotional responses from other drivers.

I definitely think that others see Porsche's as the measure of handling. Take an exit ramp or a tricky curve fast and I will see others occasionally measure their car relative to my Boxster. It's a compliment. I did it with my 02 mustang GT.
Keep to the basic rules
Stay right except passing
Keep a good distance between you and traffic in front
Be aware of traffic all around you.

You can't control other so you better be aware of whats happening around you so you have room to get the hell out of the way when racer X decides your next on his hit list
