I don't know whether to take that as a compliment or some kind of freaky stalker comment

I'm sure it can be directly linked to the quality of medical treatment today. It used to be that if you were stupid enough to try and run accross a 3 lane freeway you got hit and died, hopefully before breeding. Now the doctors save your life so you can spread your stupid genes around.

The avg IQ in the U.S. was steadily on the rise untill about 50 years ago when it started to level out (about 50 years after Medicine started making amazing advances). I wouldn't be suprised to find out that it is actually on the way down now.

I live in the ATL and it gets worse everyday. I do not think it is our car 100%
I think it is people just dont care anymore. If I am going 70 someone wants to do 80. If I go 80 someone wants to go 90. I get cut off, tailgated and hogged in my lane by people that just dont care. Its not just the Yaris I get it in my Town & Country Mini Van also and also in my truck. Like office personel suffer from carpal tunnel. I suffer from road finger, It just keeps popping up.

Tiksman speaks the truth about ATL. Its a MAJOR reason im movin out! Tired of watching/reacting/avoiding dumbshits. It also cracks me up that the imbeciles here will shoot the finger at you after they cut you off, tailgate, and do insane moves. Ive had enough.

hey yrsdrgn, don't drive in Sac. there are some really dumb ass drivers here that really just piss me off. i hear ya, people have no respect for other drivers (over here, it doesn't matter who you are/they are or the cars).

i've been forced out of a lane that i'm 3/4th in already by some F-er that speeds up so that i can't go in (an they're at least 5-10 car lengths back). what i do now is leave the lane, re-enter it, and tailgate them and flash my highbeams to scare those SOB's!

Then when coming home, there's this huge ass bump in the road right after a stop sign. I'm trying to diagonal it and another stupid white guy in a F.O.R.D truck just starts going and shakes his head. I would've done something but my mother and my sister were in the car so I couldn't.

This just goes to show that a lot of Americans have no respect for other people or other brand cars. People w/out courtesy for owners of small and lowered cars should not have a license. Jerks. I may have an asian car and I am an asian kid but I do know how to treat other people's cars with respect and I drive with respect to others as well. Only when I'm at a meet is when I can drive for playtime.


1.) You have some serious race bias issues.

2.) You live in SF and bad drivers is the only thing you can think of to whine about? WTF?

Well, I my neighborhood is dominated by Asians. Rarely and white folk and the ones in my neighborhood are cool with everyone........and secondly, I don't drive into the bad areas of SF cuz I don't wanna have anything bad happen to my car. So, makes reason enough to whine about it haha. And wouldn't you jsut stop if you see a lowered car going over some fcking bump that the damn CITY doesn't bother fixing? I also drive my family's CR-V and i see lowered cars diagonal slowly over bumps all the time and it doesn't bother me.

lol well try driving on the cross bronx expressway at any time of day. and youll get a five course meal of psycho honda shit box drivers, rock spewing 18 wheelers, half asleep t&lc drivers, slow moving construction vehicles, and every once and a while a street cleaning truck that instead of picking up the garbage and debris, makes it wet and shoots it out towards traffic.
so... all in all, some places are worse than others. you can let it stress you out or you can just try to stay cool. my commute sucks ballz. but for now i dont have a choice so i deal with it.
