I do lot of motorway driving in the UK (weekly 400 mile round trip) and I recognise similar characteristics on my drive. Not so extreme (we are British after all!) but we do have a keen sense of the rights and wrongs of queueing. Stiff upper lip an' all that, but the majority are still polite with it :)HightonRidleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03119696041973848358noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4569955034831489569.post-53689970365476629482011-02-10T10:31:05.410-05:002011-02-10T10:31:05.410-05:00Its great to see that people are sharing quite pro...Its great to see that people are sharing quite profitable information with each other and now we can move our selves to a new era.Kid Rock Ticketshttp://www.2ticketguys.com/Events/Kid-Rock-Tickets.aspxnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4569955034831489569.post-8149477107168324932011-02-03T05:13:25.684-05:002011-02-03T05:13:25.684-05:00Driving can be nothing worst than a nightmare if t...Driving can be nothing worst than a nightmare if the first category of people happen to be the fellow drivers!<br />Racing Cars Or a Cautious Driver?<br />Driving is a fun or a necessity!<br />http://www.3smartcubes.com/pages/tests/drivelikemanorwoman/drivelikemanorwoman_instructions.aspMEhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03726786022916542920noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4569955034831489569.post-37759267233889570912011-01-17T17:47:52.094-05:002011-01-17T17:47:52.094-05:00Line cutters.

I sadly admit that I live in an area with many of those women :( You seem to have gotten a smart one because the ones around here are so busy flipping hair and fixing lipstick that I always see at least 1 accident a day! I know what you mean about the drivers. I'm not going to lie, I'd be good on the eastside of town. Here they won't let you on the loop or even acknowledge you're in the lane next to them. they just move over! I honk a LOT and have been known to make a few hand gestures of my own ;P<br /><br />Good luck with the eastsiders :DBeatrizhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05708802259796562524noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4569955034831489569.post-70316416239381904392011-01-05T15:52:28.272-05:002011-01-05T15:52:28.272-05:00I will withhold my anti-Chrysler comments. I'm...I will withhold my anti-Chrysler comments. I'm sure you suffer enough as it is. ;-)<br /><br />A Commander is a big fuel-guzzler. Indeed, there's no reason why you can't just make your own hole in traffic wherever you go. But be advised, all bets are off on that merge from I-90E to I-71N into downtown. I do my best to run right-laners into the wall on that turn. Failure on their part to get in the left lane BEFORE the turn does not constitute any obligation on my part to let them in. <br /><br />Here's a solution for you - get a ball-peen hammer and put a few dents in your nice Commander. Get some bullet-hole stickers from a gun show and paste them in a ragged row down both sides of the car. Drive it through a muddy west-side field. Then try getting some more respect in traffic. I guarantee you will. It worked for me with a Ford Bronco.Marvinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10651926840296438477noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4569955034831489569.post-36612243025702082002011-01-04T02:27:23.429-05:002011-01-04T02:27:23.429-05:00Depending on the day and the mood, I can bring out...Depending on the day and the mood, I can bring out some nasty Eastside-side, especially when people don't indicate or stop at the stop sign or wait their turn at the fourway stop, or cut you off ...

I learned to be rude too, and got pretty good and hanging on the tail of the car in front of me so they couldn't squeeze in.

I think they had to attach the cruise control to the turn signal just so folks wouldnt break it off and throw it out. <br /><br />On that note. Signals are for letting folks know what you are going to do, Not signaling after you started your turn.<br /><br />I feel better know.

This Christmas, I did all of my shopping online so I wouldn't have to get out in that mess. I'm from a small town down south, where everyone knows everyone and people drive in much the manner you do. I had to do some serious adjusting when I moved up here. My wife? My wife is from a small town as well, but she works in downtown St. Louis. She's slowly been tutoring me in the ways of becoming a "city driver." I've got a long way to go, but I'm slowly learning how to muscle my way around in my truck if needed.<br /><br />Hope you had a great Christmas and New Year's!Mikehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05431248436494081319noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4569955034831489569.post-13026822555061318752011-01-03T12:25:02.070-05:002011-01-03T12:25:02.070-05:00Happy New Year, Nancy...

It never ceases to amaze me how little common courtesy is extended on entrance and exit ramps. The worst offenders are the ones that zoom up on the shoulder in stopped traffic, (past people waiting patiently,) and expect to be let in at the last possible moment.

I think they actually believe you can't see them as they bully their way through traffic just because they avoid looking at you. <br /><br />However, I'm sure they are nice people when not sporting 4000 pounds of steel. BTW the best drivers are from Alberta, Canada but stay clear of those from Montreal, Quebec. I live in Ontario now, and have never gotten used to why pedestrians don't have the right of way.
