So I laughed, looked at him and gave him the thumbs down and he decided to let off. It was funny.

ps. And I've had 1 or 2 toyobaru's rev their motor on me when they saw my Z. Neither of these events were disrespect IMO, I was flattered!

Should have called him in for reckless driving. One guy did the same thing to me. If i would have not braked he would have barreled into my car with a giant SUV, and the car next to me would have likely smashed into my car too.

People that hop lanes like that have to be under the influence of something, normal people just don't drive like that, unless they are total D-bags.

This reminds me of something, months ago i was in a two lane road that hand a bend turn, i was on the inside lane and an SUV was on the outside lane, the SUV clearly seen my car next to him/her because i was slightly forward of that SUV while waiting for the traffic signal. So when the light turned green i start driving and minding my own business when the SUV starts to go from the outer lane into my lane. I break hard to avoid being hit then honk to let him know that he was about to hit my car.

The SUV swerves back into its lane then for no reason slows down to almost a complete stop. Then speeds up again and attempts to switch lanes again (no turn signal). The SUV ends up hitting the truck that was behind me. Amazing how bad some drivers are, the SUV almost hit me car and knew very well it almost collided with me but somehow it ends up colliding into a truck in the same manner it almost collided with my vehicle.



Rant of the day.

Sounds typical of most people driving these days. The thing that blows my ******* mind more than anything else these days, is people not knowing how to merge onto a godamn freeway. How hard is it to look before you merge. The amount of times I've almost been hit when some idiot is merging onto the freeway is astounding. Merging means you are the one who needs to get into the lane I shouldn't have to ******* watch out for you and slow down to 30mph so you ******* stupid *** can get in the freeway.

What's worse is being stuck behind the fool trying to merge who decides either a.) 30mph is fast enough or b.) comes to a complete stop on the ramp instead of speeding up with traffic.

This is bad, real bad in TX...Especially in the DFW and HOU areas, WTF. These folks are already going 70 to 85 and you wanna hit brakes to merge on I35 or I45 going 30mph.

My (short) round trip is mostly highway. This is a daily occurrence, unfortunately. This, and for some reason these fools going 5 under the speed limit in the fast lane that refuse to move over and then honk/flip me off and SPEED UP as I go around. Since when were these early-2000 Tahoes and rusty work trucks ever considered fast? Z = win, stop trying bro.

Makes no sense
