Annoying things people do, JUST because you are in a Z!

Every person I pass no matter if they are just going slow or even with cruise control on will do everything they can to catch up to or pace me.

Every person I pass no matter if they are just going slow or even with cruise control on will do everything they can to catch up to or pace me. Very annoying. Most of the time I'm just trying to pass to get back over in the right is e because there is always someone trying to pass even me. I always seem to wind up boxed in between a bunch of retards regardless.

Last night coming over the bridge and about to hit the tunnel this guy in a pathfinder decided to pass me at the last possible moment as the lanes were merging into one before the tunnel. Wound up kicking up rocks from the shoulder and all just to be ahead of me. He got about 8-10 car lengths ahead of me and never got any further. That kind of crap really irritates me. "Lead car syndrome" I guess. My rage almost got the best of me too. No bueno.

Yesterday evening, I was stopped at a stoplight in the right lane, not even paying attention to what car was next to me. I accelerate normally - quicker than most people, sure, but not even trying. I get up to speed (45 mph) and make a 3rd to 6th shift for cruising. Next thing I know, the Maxima that was apparently next to me at the light comes roaring by at about 60 mph only to slam on their brakes before barely passing me and turning left into a shopping center

I could only assume it was ///PureSwank

And they always try to cheat by using a loud horn and shout things like "PULL OVER, NOW!!"

Pfft! I'm winning! Why would I give you a handicap? Nice try!

Park next to it even though you're a million miles away with 9 million other spots available in the lot.

Agreed My nightmare, my friend. My nightmare.

Both times I parked alone, went inside, then came back out to these mysteries.

Same here...forgot what thread someone posted about a fish experiment showing how the fish are attracted to the black strip in an otherwise empty white bowl.

Apparently our cars are the black strip of empty parking lots
