Once I had a lady speed past pull in front of me, and drive 10 under the speed limit, which I thought was hilarious cuz she was the one in such a huge hurry she had to honk.

I try not to do this anymore, mainly cuz I don't wanna get shot by some maniac, but I REALLY hate people honking their horn like that.

No, earlier he was being followed, and waited for the Red Light. But very nice pickup

You're not going to pass inspection with that horn not working.

HA...I'm going through this right now too, frustrating, especially when someone tosses a cig butt back at me.

I had to hit my horn hard when someone on a cellphone cut me off last week. Later in the day, my horn just started blowing as I was driving and I had to pull over and yank the fuse.

Apparently the horn button got mashed when I hit it and it's stuck "on".

Pulling the cover should loosen it up and fix it....just have not gotten around to doing it yet.

Re: The Rant Thread

Hate it when people won't let you change lanes. Yesterday I was trying to get into the left lane and the car behind me in the left lane was a good car length behind, so I put on my signal and start moving over and wouldn't you know he started speeding up and got right up my ass. I mean c'mon is that really necessary? It's not like I was cutting him off. We're in heavy traffic and you want to fight me for a spot? F'ing idiots.

Re: The Rant Thread

I hate the people who toss all their trash out of their car along our roads. Today I was sitting at an off ramp and was just stunned at all the trash thrown out. I just saw a crew clean this area about a month ago and now its trashed again.

Re: The Rant Thread

How about people at the store who still write checks? I mean really how about getting with this century and getting a debit card. Who keeps an old fashioned paper check register anymore? (sorry Mom )

Not only that but then they get up in line and don't have the check ready. Seriously, fill out the damn thing as much as you can while you wait for them to bag your groceries. And sweet jesus don't spend another 20 seconds filling out the GD register IN FREAKING LINE!!!! Go the eff away. Get out of my life.
