He did not try to pass, just rode my *** all the way up the street, slowing down then damn near ramming me. I see he has to turn after a mile of doing this and immedietly cut into his turn lane. I come to a complete stop and leasurely turn off my TCS. I revved her up to about 6k and dropped the clutch spitting dirt and rubber all over the front of his truck while wifey yelled at me. I then proceeded to enter a gated community. I'm pretty sure he wasn't happy at all, neither was my Wife, but I had a pretty smug smile as I parked.

I will say, if you're in the fast lane going speed limit on a 4 lane road you're an absolute c^unt. I never understood why people think they should take up space just because it's there. And the speed limit doesn't justify blocking traffic. Honestly speed limits are simply revenue generators for the city and if you're really going to follow them then get in the slow lane of traffic. If someone's obviously going faster than you, what is the harm of letting them pass? All you're doing is creating a dangerous situation where the other person's incompetence or your own can cause an accident. Even if he were to go around it's still an extra maneuver that can put others at risk.

On the other hand if there's no one else on the road, or if there was traffic all around you where there's no where to go anyway, then, by all means, he's the ******* and you can disregard everything I said previously.

1. Technically, it isn't "the fast lane" it is a passing lane and he was passing slower traffic.

2. IMO, the Charger in this situation was causing the "dangerous situation" by tailgating the OP.

Wasn't referring to the OP but... ok. If you take a look at the post I quoted firehawk who was talking about his own experience with someone else. And you can call it whatever you want but if that's what you got out of reading four lines of text you've completely taken the piss.

You know what, I appologize. My browser didn't load the quoted text when I originally read your post.

I was in a residential neighborhood next to a park in the right hand lane. Cops are up and down that street. I move over for faster traffic... On the freeway. On a city street, f@ck you. I'm usually moving fairly quickly and the backup isn't me. But there are places I don't speed. Parks, schools and speed traps.

If you're referring to my traffic blocking; speeding is not a problem to me. Aggressively driving through traffic, cutting people off, and a common disregard for anyone around them is what grinds me. I'm generally passive until that point

Edit: Removed remarks. Browser was cut off and didn't see last paragraph. Btw , your opinion doesn't bother me. Keep thinking whatever you want.

So you can go eat a fat D!ck until you learn to stop ASSuming what you think happened.

FYI: Apologies are accepted and I'll remove the offending remark if you do as well.

I do hate when people race around on the city streets. That's generally where very bad things happen. Especially in my around where there are a lot of mountain roads.

No, it's fine, you can leave it. It speaks loads about your character.

If you carry a gun, do not ever give the finger.
