A few stick in your mind for quite awhile. Like the guy in the Altima 2.5 wringing out his car to execute a passing manuever. Or the guy in the Saab squeeling his tires when the light turned green. WTF ??
Last Friday night however, I had an idiot in a Hyundai changing lanes several times to block me NASCAR style. Just total passive aggressive. I don't understand this at all.
When I am in my truck, or my Accord, or on my harley I do not get any of this.
I guess there is a lot to be said for a "sleeper" car.
On the other hand I do also get thumbs up and such. But these are far fewer than the other stunts. And there are the times when you pull up next to a Vette and neither one of you want to pull away too hard. This is to show respect to the other car(I know the Vette's faster and the Vette knows he's faster) I suppose. LOL
