Just for the record: No, he did not piss me off in anyway. He did not do anything that pissed me off. What pissed me off was he was just speeding in heavy traffic.

im pretty sure that means he pissed you off...

I've had people race by me. I mean, literally racing by me in decently thick traffic around here. Me going 60-70 and them going 90-100. The type of peopel that you never even saw them coming they're driving so fast. Now that might stand out t6o me, but a guy weaving through traffic going 80 or so? Not as much.

Hey,
He drives a si...lol.
He spent alittle extra money so he could have more pathetic looking car but he has alittle extra horsepower.
Dont waste your breath.
Pathetic? I personally love the 7G Si. I've driven earlier 7G coupes and well.. to say the least I was not impressed with the quality. Meanwhile, drive a first year 7G Si and the quality was much higher.

No offense meant to anyone with 7G coupes and sedans, but I'd choise a 7G Si over them any day. And they're not really that expensive btw.

Sounds more like this wasn't that he was speeding... but he was driving unsafe for the conditions (speeds AND weaving from the description).

fuk that...neone tries to race me ...im out...dodging traffic and everything...u wanna race...were doing it...only life im endangering is mine...no1 really tries to race me though..
If you're dodging traffic you're endagering the other peopel on the road too. If you're driving and you crash you're endangering everyone near you and within the next couple hundred feet behind you.

By the way he drives, I say he was speeding for excitement.
Or out of habit.

Pure stupid when in traffic.

It's one thing to risk your own life and the other pepople wanting to race, but where there are other people on the road cut it out. or at the very least don't post abotu it online and expect people to think you're cool or not tell you that you shouldn't be driving like an ass.

Oh yeah, and some of the people in modified cars that you're trying to race probably think it's lame when you try to mess with them. Just because a person likes to modify their car doesn't mean they like to race or race in traffic.

i read that entire thing and if you call going 60 mph on an interstate "heavy traffic" then :wgaf:
:werd: heavy traffic is like bumper to bumper...

try driving in L.A. where people are constantly going 80mph and tailgating your ass...stop being such a pussy...waste of a thread :thumbdown:

You're right. I should've said it differently.

Why are you replying? You must be one of those people. That explains alot. I didn't realize in L.A. you can go 80mph with that kind of traffic.

Just accept it and lets move on.
Accept what and move on from what?

Safer? Yes. Right thing to do? No. It is safer, but not be much. There will still be people on the freeway. Some of them may actually be so tired that they are falling asleep behind the wheel. He can hit you, or you can hit him. Either way, the result will not be good. And if it was a semi truck, the chances for you to escape that situation would be way less. Read 02EXSILVER's post, that's actually worth reading and think about the lives that you may hurt. It's not only you and the other driver. It's his/her family, friends, love ones, and etc.

60mph = speed limit. I go above speed limit all the time, but under 70 most of the time. 65 or under when it's dark. I never go at a speed where I know I can hurt others. You are 18, I guess I can't expect you to understand. You don't think this thread is important? Leave it then. I think it's important. I think it's important that people like you should think about the lives that you could hurt. Speeding at high speed is careless of others' safety.

what makes you think i speed all the time ? im not like that fool in the Si. i only speed when its safe and clear to do so...so dont say i dont understand. I was rear-ended by a stupid driver that was speeding to the stop light when the light was red...he totalled my accord...i hate people that speed when its not safe but what can we do ? there are so many people like that here in vegas especially those srt-4 and subie drivers. anyways i've seen so many threads like this saying how speeding is dumb, someone sped by them almost hitting them, etc. they wont do anything...you think all the stupid drivers are gonna come in here to read this and actually listen ? if the driver was even on this forum and you told him about how you felt do you think he would even listen ? theres nothing we can do...there will always be stupid drivers...

P.S. sorry if i dont make sense...im :high: :P

I don't care so much about speeders as I do about the dumbasses who ride in the wrong lanes. Aren't passing anyone at a solid speed? Get in the right lane. Want to pass someone? Get in the left lane. Someone wants to merge? Get in the other lane.

And always signal. I'm also tired of people who think a turn signal gives them a right to change lanes. They signal and jump over in front of you all in one swift movement.

Tell that to the judge when you get in an accident, that is if you are still alive.

Well, if you cause an accident because you're trying to enforce the law... cops won't be too happy with you either.

I'm talking about people like the ones who sit in the passing lane and go the speed limit because theyr'e "taking it upon themselves" to enforce the speed limit. Not your job and you're breaking the law too.

Playing king of the road, tailgating, etc are just other ways to break the law and possibly cause an accident.

Be the bigger man, get over into the right lane and leave it alone. Adjust your speed as required in order to stay away form that person if you think they're that dangerous. The most involved you ever need to get is call in tag numbers if you're really that concerned (and I either get a passenger to do that or pull over btw).

I was on the right lane, did I not mention that? I normally drive on the right lane at or a little bit above the speed limit. I didn't even know the black Si was behind me till he flew by and caught my attention. No matter how you see it, he was wrong for what he did. And I was wrong for getting pissed off and tailgate him even though it was only for a few seconds.

I didn't say you were in any particular lane, did I?
