    Obviously the only rational response to someone going 40 in a 60 zone is not to intentionally rear end a car to kill the occupants. You follow them home and Blood Eagle them in the night.

    This is exactly how driving works. If you’re not using the road to my satisfaction you deserve to die.

      I don’t mind if people are dumb, slow, whatever. It’s out of my control so, meh. But when I’m put into risk I give a fuck.

      My biggest hate is people just stopping or crawling on a road as they think of want they want to do next. Because so often there’s some other idiot on their phone that could be behind me that hasn’t noticed the idiot in front of me has slowed down to 20kph for their situational ponderings.

      Feels like more and more these days I’m looking into the rearview mirror anxiously saying, “Oh my god, MOVE.”

        I got rear-ended last week when some car taking a right pulled across the 2wheeler lane and stopped, ass sticking out so far he was blocking both lanes. I coasted to a stop a few inches from a scooter who’d emergency stopped because this guy pulled infront of her, and immediately get rear-ended by a motorbike who braked late because he was on his phone.

        It was low speed enough nothing was damaged.

        He deserves to die because he’s not using the road to my satisfaction by proxy through his parent/guardian/driver.

        /S just in case, this is the internet.

        Having experienced indignant tailgaters that quite clearly indicated that they’d prefer me and my whole family dead except that it would have scratched their truck’s paint.

          Are you sitting in the left hand lane, driving parallel to some grandma for no reason?

          Are you driving in the center of the road on mountain switchbacks to make it dangerous for motorcycles to pass you?

          There are some people, usually conservatives, who do that shit and make things more dangerous for everybody usually saying shit like “well I have the right to”, to avoid revealing that they enjoy inconveniencing people.

            Single lane road in a surging queue of traffic. Apparently this chump figured that tailgating me would make the rest of the traffic go away.

              Oh lol then the only choice is to modulate your speed to even out the surges, get everybody to relax, you’re averaging the same speed anyway.

      Bradley is hooked up to a syringe full of poison. The more you tailgate, the more poison is injected.

    I see a lot of car drivers throwing insults around in this thread and I’d just like to say I agree with all of you. You all suck. Your cars are big and loud and stinky and they get all over the place and make life harder for us. And I have a chronic disability because of your nasty pollution.
