[QUOTE="Suicide Bobb, post: 7359182, member: 617319"] The funny thing is, I'm selfish and courteous at the same time on the road. I hold the mentality that I own the road, but at the same time I am respectful when someone deserves respect. If you're doing 50 in a 60 in the left lane of the highway, I'll keep a normal distance, slow down to your speed, and flash my brights for one millisecond. If you don't move over and have the opportunity to, I'll flash my brights again and give a hand signal akin to those guys with the light sticks at airports directing a plane. If you still don't get the point, I'll move closer to your tail, and pass if possible. I don't escalate beyond this point. This is so true! Women don't get in many accidents, they CAUSE many accidents. The reason why women are terrible drivers is because they don't care about driving. I am a firm believer that there is a direct correlation between how much you care about your driving and how good of a driver you are.
