I could not agree more. It's going to get to the point where cars will have to be equipped with signal jammers to prevent people from staring at their phones instead of the road.

Oh, and dear BMW drivers,
Just because you bought a BMW doesn't mean you're exempt from mounting a front license plate because the car "looks better without it." If I had a dollar for every BMW I've seen missing a front tag, I would be able to retire by now.

Dear a****** in the jeep liberty

I am at a loss trying to understand why you were so adamant about not letting me take my exit to Lowell this morning. Seeing you speed up to block me at first made me confused, but as soon as I saw what was going on it made me realize that people like you are the reason I leave my house before 6 AM to avoid traffic. There was no where for me to go, i had a big rig behind me and id miss my exit if i played your little game.

I will say, though, that you are pretty committed; you were willing to drive off road in order to block me from exiting. It was pretty funny watching you hit the grass at full speed. And, yes, I did wait until the last second to brake.

But I don't understand why you were so angry with me.

Sincerely,

Just trying to get off

Simple jealousy, think about it you'd hate the world too if you had to commute in a jeep versus a clean, quick wrx

Dear p******* in the Jetta,
I don't know whether you you trying to bait me into getting pulled over by the cop I saw on Waze, or just trying to impress your dbag friends, but when I start to pass you, I'm going to finish it. Your friends really shouldn't be impressed that I out-accelerated you without leaving 5th...

Default Dear Neon Driver

Dear D bag in the corrola s on lowell rd at 715pm.
When you change lanes it's customary to actually have room for your car in the lane your trying to go into, you on the other hand must be much more important than I as you only need to have your drivers window past my nose when you just went for it.. I don't know who you were talking to on the phone but I hope you told them all about your super stupid move. Next time don't slam on your brakes and pull into a side st in the hopes of letting me pass.. I only beeped once when you almost hit me, however a lesser man would have blocked you in and beat your ass for that maneuver.
Sincerely
The guy who was just getting chicken fries

I hate that. I also hate when I don't/can't pull all the way up to the white line because people cut the corner on a turn way too sharp and if I was waiting at the line I would have been t-boned.

I only do it when turning right onto my street, so I can take it quickly enough to get out of the way, while not hitting anyone who's coming to the end.

Beyond that, ****'s cray.

Dear Honda Civic sedan driver,

Going 70-75 in heavy Friday night traffic on 93N, I was surprised that anyone was tailgating me so close. Nonetheless I pulled into a small gap in the middle lane to let you by.

So I was kind of surprised when I passed you on the right a mile up the road. I estimate you'd slowed to 60mph and had quite a parade behind you. The glow from your phone as we passed explained all.

Dear Harley rider,
It was quite arrogant to start yelling at me for "not using a directional" seeing as you blew that stop sign and was inches off my bumper. Had you actually stopped and had some distance you would have noticed that my directional was on. Please go back into hibernation or die in a fire
Sincerely
Just turning into my driveway

Dear pedestrians,

There is a place for you; it's called a sidewalk.
There is a place for cars; it's called a road.
Please stop berating drivers who are trying to use the road for its intended purpose simply because you get sidewalks and roads mixed up on a disturbingly frequent basis.

On another note; does anyone else think that pedestrians should actually be the ones yielding to cars? I mean, logically, it is much easier for a 150 lb person to stop or change direction than it is for a 1.5 ton vehicle. Just saying....

I've thought that for years. Think about it...no matter how fast you are walking or maybe even running it would be way easier for you to stop on a dime than a car or even a bike even traveling at modest velocity.

I'm glad to see I'm not the only person who's had that idea.

This concept will never really get any legs, but ironically it makes sense. Still no excuse for careless driving or being a careless pedestrian.

Hate that area. When the lanes shift most people just keep going straight so the end up in the other lane.

My gripe is the Braga Bridge (big surprise). When going West over the bridge most cars get in the left lane to avoid the cars getting on the bridge from entrance ramp. That's fine but these slow MFers then stay in the left lane over the entire bridge and even after the bridge ends and it opens back up to 3 lanes.

I remember when it wasn't state law to yield to pedestrians.. Back then we had to actually look both ways before crossing and actually use the signals at cross walks and actually stay out of the street.. Ever since that law went into effect it seems common sense has been thrown out the window. How many times have you seen a jack ass walking, running in the street versus on the side walk, and my personal favorite 3 people walking side by side halfway across a lane because THEY have the right of way.
Sorry, little rant

The thing is, it's not the law to yield to pedestrians. It's the law to yield to pedestrians in a crosswalk at an uncontrolled intersection, or when they have a Walk sign. However, many people seem to think they have the right of way at all times. This leads to situations like the other day with some jackhole yelling at me because I didn't stop for him when he had a Don't Walk sign and I had a green light.

SMH...

Dear old douche in the 5 series bmw. Stop riding my ass for no reason. I was doing 5 over the posted limit.
Bet you felt good when we were at the red light side by side and i waved goodbye. Bet you looked cool to your son in the passenger seat getting smoked by a rice burner.

Disclaimer: guy was riding my ass for a good 2 miles. We came to a 2 lane left turn light, both turning left onto a long straight bridge. Only went to about 70. Posted limit was 50. He was a douche in a bmw riding my ass. Im a douche too but it felt good to put him in his place with his son riding shotgun.

Dear Dumbass in the Civic,

Your fartcan sounded horrible when you flew by me just to sit in more traffic up ahead. I laughed then.. and I laughed again this morning when I saw you pulled over on the highway. Sucks to suck.

Dear F%(K-Tard in the White Mercedes GLA SUV,


First off, I can’t believe I even have cause to write this to you. If you were to know anything about our vehicles you would not have made a complete jerk off out of yourself. I sincerely hope your penis has grown and now has attained the length of 5 inches after our encounter. When I pulled up next to you at the light, I was actually thinking how cool your little SUV is and how it’s a luxury utilitarian vehicle…nice lines, great technology, not too big, and a little bit of pep from your 2.0 Turbo putting out 208 HP at the flywheel.

I honestly had ZERO intention of trying to see how quick 0-60 in 7.1 seconds actually is or your 258 ft-lbs or torque. For the record, I never race anyone that I know I can beat easily. It is not worth the risk of a collision or citation, especially on a main road late on a Sunday afternoon. Furthermore, there is no sense of satisfaction for me in a race like this. Do you honestly think Mike Tyson feels better and more self-assured about himself knowing he can destroy Pee-Wee Herman? But I digress…

The light turned green and the street curved to the right before a long straight away. I enjoy this turn and road and I usually shift at 4500 RPMs coming out of the turn to experience what we STi guys call “Spirited Driving”. I believe you had it in your mind from the stop light that you were going to floor it from the get go and not after you heard me take off, because that is what you did.

By the time I was halfway into second gear, I realized that you were actually trying to race me and I immediately backed off the throttle and laughed my fool ass off! It was fun seeing you pull away as your anemic engine & turbo gave it everything thing it had. My thoughts immediately raced to the children’s story “The Little Engine That Could”.

About a quarter mile later, at the next red light I finally pull up next to you after you’ve had the chance to answer a text or two, and you decided to do it again after your landslide victory! Too bad my turn off was two short blocks after the red light so you could only gloat about your next victory for about a quarter mile or less as all you saw of me was in your rear view mirror. I guess you thought I was too embarrassed to pull up next to you a third time so I veered off the road not to get my ass handed to me again. For the record, I actually live two blocks past the second red light.

In closing I’d like to congratulate you on your two victories! I have a new found respect for your vehicle and you’ve taught me something…208 HP at the fly wheel, not at the wheels and 258 ft-lbs of torque can easily overtake an AWD heavily modified STi at Stage 2+ with well over 325 AWHP. I guess after spending all that money on an STi and parts and tunes, I am the proud owner of “The Little Wagon That FAILED”.

Enjoy your two victories my friend and if I ever see you again I will lay you out on your back and fill your mouth with your own feces. (In a race sentiment of course)! Until then, please try not to embarrass any GTR-s or 911’s and drive safely!

Notice this is a New England Region thread? I'm certain you could start your own Florida thread on the same topic.....
