They picked this up from Kentucky drivers. Also, complete disregard for stop signs. Kid you not, I almost got T-boned 3 times within a half mile because these redneck widgets don't stop at stop signs.

edit: Oh yeah. And no headlighs when it's dark.

As I noted in this thread: California Driving...sigh

The rules of California traffic:
  • No signaling. EvaR.
  • Race from stop sign/light to stop sign/light ("live life at a quarter mile at a time...")
  • Do not check mirrors or blind spots - if someone is there, f-em.
  • Minimum speed on the freeways: 80 mph. All lanes including entry and exit lanes. And don't think that because your car cannot accelerate to 100 in less than 12 seconds is an excuse.
  • Tailgate. It lets the people ahead know to go faster. Screw those people who need/want/would like to merge into the lane with you (even if their lane is ending). Besides, safe following distance is subjective anyways.
  • Never come to a complete stop at a T-intersection. Others will stop for you!

Tailgaters and old people who cut me off **** me off REALLY bad. Anyone who does that to me now gets the treatment. I slow them down to 35MPH on the freeway and don't let them change lanes for a long, long time. *******s even try signaling in the opposite direction that they TRY to change lanes in, but I don't fall for that one. Let it be a lesson, never cut off or tailgate a sports car, especially a 350Z.

^^^^ Ugh, +1 on old people cutting you off. It pisses me off more when they give you a WTF you looking at me face? while passing them, meaning they didn't realize they cut me off.

i don't like it when people cut you off with out signaling and then right after that when they change lanes the signal. i have that happen alot. also people that signals to change lanes but comes really close to clipping your front end when there is plenty of space in front of them. people that slow down to look at an accident. also people that litters. people that park next to you in the boonies, when there are plenty of other spaces around the other area.
