Doing 80 in a 65?  Sounds like you're both bad drivers to me..   ;)

Flashing the hazards (once) and stepping on the gas usually creates separation  :devil

The tailing car reacts to what seems to be brake lights while you, however, have mashed it to the floor.   :aok

Downshifting (if you have a manual trans) wakes them up pretty quick, also

Ive found during daylight driving if you simultaneously flip on the headlights/tail lights and slightly wiggle your stearing wheel they usually jam their brakes since they think you just jammed yours......... funny watching how fast you pull away from them then

A recent survey in my country showed that 94% of all drivers thought they were better drivers than the average...

if it's a 3 lane interstate, i never ride the left lane. i like the extra options of bing in the middle lane. it also seems to me that state troopers are less likely to notice me in the middle, as opposed to the left.

 
 on the other hand...........the dude was just a tard. if i'm coming up on slower moving traffic, and they haven't moved by the time i'm within 5 cars of em, i'm already in the next lane going by em.

Ehhh, my pet peeve is drivers who drive too slowly in the left hand lane, oblivious to whatever is behind them.  Really, folks, the left hand lane is for passing.  If you're not passing, switch a lane to the right.

General rule of thumb seems to be: everyone who drives slower than you is a jerk, and everyone who drives faster is an a-hole. :rolleyes:

In that situation, I usually keep ahead of the guy until I get even with somebody in the next lane over, then match their speed.  At that point, I pointedly look in the rear view mirror, smile a big smile, and just sit there.  It never fails to amuse!

I think deep down inside, everyone thinks they are a good driver.

The guys I hate are the ones who come flying up behind you and, even though you're already doing above the speed limit as it is, get pissed because you won't speed up even more for them so they start riding your bumper. Then they finally tire of that game after you flash your lights at them a couple times, so pass you in the other lane, pull in front and then SLAM THEIR BRAKES.

Yeah, if I hit you as a result, guess whose insurance is footing the bill, love muffin?

Ron White says you can't fix stupid. I beg to differ. Stupid will usually sort itself out, it's just a matter of making sure you're not close enough to become collateral damage.

Those are the fun ones in my area...because I know exactly where they're gonna get stuck in traffic and I'll get my revenge...or the nice state trooper is hiding in his usual spot...just waiting to write a ticket to the moron.  :D

if i am driving fast and someone comes up behind me i let them pass, that way if there is a cop ahead he will catch them not me, they are my rabbit to spring the trap.

I hate those people who think the left hand lane is thier personal highway space.  I tend to drive fast so GET OUT OF MY WAY IDIOT!  I have so many pet-peeves about driving HTC will run out of bandwidth.  Another thing that bugs me is people waving you you through on 4 way stops.  If it's your turn GO!  Oh and I am a good driver!
