Prius, get out of the fast lane!
 

Anyone else have problems with Prius drivers thinking it's thier job to keep everyone driving slow in the fast lane? What? to save gas? Seems like this week is WTF week. Must of happened 10 times. Why the heck would you be in the fast lane during rush hour when people are constantly going around you?

cossie- wat are you doing??!

:bowrofl::bowrofl::bowrofl::bowrofl: If I hadn't already repped you today I'd rep you for this one.

That Kenman he is funny. :icon18: I didn't know they allowed the Prius on highways let alone the fast lane.

:roflpuke2: ken is the man.


also, i am weirded out that i'm always passed by prius drivers who feel entitled to go 85+ mph on the 405 freeway b/c they're still getting like...26 mpg at that speed hahahaha

Some Prius drivers definitely can be self righteous types. Around here most people buy them for the image (you'll see one parked next to a Hummer in the driveway of a multi-million dollar home) but others think they are saving the world. If they slow you down you'll consume less gas and release fewer harmful emissions :icon17:.

But in reality we just consume and release more as we drop to 3rd and fly on by at WOT.

I do encounter a lot that speed like mad.

Some people are too stupid to know the left lane is the fast lane. Like here in tx, 3/4 of the state thinks the passing is on the right and the cruise lane is on the left. This is what happpens when republicans think that the first of the budget cuts should hit education and healthcare first. You get dumb, sickly,fat people with high stacking sandwiches and low immune systems as well as low IQ's... cruising @ 48mph on the left lane. And never having touched a turn signal cuz there's one hand on the steering wheel, the shoulders hold a phone. The other hand holds a sanwich. Lmfao.:inoutroflpuke:

A lot to be said for the heaviest state in the union. To top it off. The state doesn't want to pass any driving while texting laws or phone laws. Man I can rant all day. Lol. But anyway... here in texas, prius' try to egg me on for races. Lmfao.:rofl2:

Pfft all the liberals in NOVA drive slow in the left lane and think it's all good. :p

Hey wait a minute, I'm a republican :mad:

:rofl2:

Unknown it isn't good to hold back. You should express yourself more and not hold it in. :bowrofl:

:iagree: :rofl2:

That's how I drive my mom's Prius but at more reasonable 80 mph on 95 and still got like 45 mpg :icon17:

Part of it might have to do with those damn VA cops and their ridiculous driving laws :rolleyes:

"Any and all driving will be considered reckless." :bowrofl:

I cant think of anything remotely appropriate to say besides, I have a TT 370Z, a straight piped diesel, and a illegal exhaust on my GSXR1000...


Prius's :gtfo2:

yah, quick way to kill that is to ask them where they are throwing away those huge batteries...

IN THE OCEAN LOL. THE FISH LIKE ACID. :tup:

My mom's Prius is undefeated in *ahem* linear acceleration testing :rolleyes:

:tup: we just dump in front of neighbor's house we dont like.

:icon17: Indian neighbor? :rofl2:

yes, down the street with green yaris taht wanted me to loosen his nuts. :rofl2:

yes, and they also don't realize that a guy with a dead battery ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE HIGHWAY doesn't necessitate us all slowing down to 15mph.

...that being said, after living in the northeast (CT) for a few years i'll take texas over fish and chips and -40 windchills. go pats!

prius drivers in my area seems to want to prove something pulling off the line that they're not super slow.

it's like you're driving a wedge, no one cares if you're faster than a 17sec/78mph car...

:icon18:

I didn't realize they were that fast. LOL

I noticed that at the lights too. It's like the old bugs, where's my flyswatter, I hear something buzzing. That should make the batteries last:icon14:

Maybe it's because they've had it floared for the last 5 miles and think they're going fast enough to be in the fast lane. :bowrofl:

Yeah, left lane drivers are a huge problem here, too... Prius and otherwise.

But they don't want to have to deal with merging traffic as it might distract them from their phone call/texting. :ugh2:

Prius drivers are clueless and self righteous. I test drove one and they are most boring transportation devices known to man kind. I'm pretty sure owners are bent on trying to make you feel as boring as they feel driving these soul sucking vehicles.

Shamu I think the Smart Car is in that league also. :thumbsdown::gtfo2:

Prii are sweet-- they leave more gas for me to drive my interesting car.

I was checking my reps I stumbled on this where I was repped. Lmfao..... you guys make my day. Lol. :roflpuke2::bowrofl:

I got jokes on tx all day long with the wacky doo driving and backwards thinking. But peope are nice here and its generally a great place to live. I just get frustrated on the highway here.
:icon18:

Oh god i agree 100%....lol :icon18:

I hate prius so much. They are ugly, and they tend to have the worst drivers as well, people who don't signal properly, who hug the fast lane at 50 mph, who tailgate the car in front. Camery drivers are at the close second as the worst drivers of all cars.

And any Penn. drivers third LOL

This would all be put to an end if cops actually gave tickets for impeding the left lane (vs hassling me on my way to work for my 35% tint).

I agree but then all those 90 year olds that shouldn't be on the road would be getting tickets.

I think my Prius is cool. I can say the same about some Z owners. You get good and bad ones with any cars, so whatever.

True, but I was saying "in general", more bad drivers tend to find themselves behind the wheels of Prius or Camery.

I see Prius drivers flying on the highway and riding in and out the HOV. They must have the highest MPH average of any car here in NY lol.

For some reason, Prius drivers love HOV lane. I see them all the time in HOV lane on LIE. Although, every time I saw one, it happened to block my way

Prius and Camry outsold Zs by many times, does it surprise you to see more bad drivers in those cars than the Z?

Btw, I rate Corolla drivers are mostly the worst :roflpuke2:

teenagers in their mom's prius thinks theyre racing everyone on the road. Thats why they block eveeyone trying to overtake them in the left lane.
