Whenever I am driving on the highway, it's always seems to be the pick up trucks (4x4) or some dodge truck speeding and cutting everyone off weaving in and out of lanes! So I was really sick of having this done to me even when I'm not driving slow at all. As I see this GMC pick up truck speeding down behind and tailing me, I went slow on purpose because he couldn't change lanes due to another slow moving vehicle next to him. As he finally makes a successful speeding lane change, I knew he was about to pass me and move onto my lane. but no, no, no I did what I knew would make him really mad so I sped up making sure I was always a little more in front of him. He had no choice but to stay in that lane or drive slower to lane change behind me. That's what you get! HA. YOU GUYS DON'T OWN THE ROAD, SO STOP DRIVING LIKE YOU DO.

As much as i hate that also. Try to refrain from speeding up just so they can't get in front of you, because that is also quite dangerous and in all honesty quite a douchey thing to do. Chances are, once he passes you he'll zoom on by and won't even be in your view. Remember, 2 wrongs don't make a right. But 3 lefts do.

hahaha i hate people who weave in and out too. i always find it amusing when i'm just following at a safe distance and someone behind me just changes lane to pass me but still ends up behind me because of a car in the slow lane. but yeah don't just speed up so they can't get in front of you because they might not look in their mirrors or w.e and just clips you.

Stop playing games on the road.
Stay on the farthest right lane when your on the highway or let those speeders pass in front of you.

My friend got a shotgun pulled on him even though he wasnt even blocking anyone. Guy speeds up on the fast lane so he switches lanes to let him pass. Guy stays next to him and my friend can see him btching at him and then he just pulls a shotgun up and my friend brakes hard and exits the freeway.

My point is careful what you do, some crazy people out there.

sorry but that is incredibly stupid, if the guy is moving quickly, he will think you are still driving slower than him and you could get hit.and seriously, if you are in the 1st lane and you have 10 car lengths in front, move over its called a common courtesy.

For a minute, I bet it seemed like you were trying to own the road by trying to contain the other truck driver tongue.gif

You never know anyone else's situation. For all you know, he might of been late for an appointment or rushing for some emergency. I think it's funny how you targeted one truck driver and you think you taught them all a lesson.

And you don't want to be doing something like that--especially against a truck. I don't know what type of car you drive but I'm sure your car going head to head against a truck in a collision wouldn't be a good idea. Your car would probably lose.

Some drivers depend their living on how efficient they can drive. They have kids to feed you know.

Yes. I have a friend who has older brothers as truck drivers. They have to get to point A to point B in a certain time... so when and if they have to, they will be speeding. They do this to make money to support their wife and kids back home.

I couldn't agree with you more Mr. Chan. You're absolutely right!
I don't know about you, but I'm not living off a 40-40 for my life.

i dont understand why you didnt let the trunk driver merge into your lane infront of you. you dont own the road either and not everybody travels at the same speed. people should move out of the way for speeding cars.
and people weaving through traffic, i dont understand what its got to do with you. you can do it too wink.gif

if slow people stuck on the right side, there wouldnt be any weavers. and the slow people pinkberry and moan about the weavers when they are the ones who started it.

btw. if u are going slower/same/faster by 5 mph of the car to your right(america) u are failing at driving.
