People with shitty cars are the worst. Most cases these people make bad decisions in life and that's where they end up.
I had a mid aged man cutting me off and then brake check me. Then after I passed him, he gave me middle finger and everything. 50 something year old driving a piece of shit Pontiac Sunfire really says something.

In my experience I have found little correlation between the car someone drives and the quality of their character.

It's not what they drive, it's how they drive that shows their character.

In my experience... I found a big correlation between the total number of dents on their car and their ability to drive (new or old) :D

Same here, and one intersection I hit every morning Waze reports a red light camera and people still run the light. The city has to be making bank on that one.

I'm sure it varies state to state and even county to county but just recently that guy got sentenced to 15 years for knowingly running that motorcyclist off the road a few years ago. It was a double yellow, too.

Just something to think about. Yeah, I don't enjoy the double yellow pass. But let's not overlook the clear road-rage here in the Focus... that could've gone south real fast for both of them...

Yep, I remember when that incident happened ... lots of talk on chat boards about it.

Regarding the stop sign runner - I feel like people assume that the main road always has the right of way so they don't even bother to check for a stop sign. It's the same thing at my college. I just make sure to quadruple check when turning at those kinds of roads now.

Regarding the AT&T driver - I feel like those AT&T and Comcast drivers are the worst. Well, actually I notice anyone in those work type vans are pretty terrible drivers lol. I'm constantly being cut off by them, or they will start merging into me, or they will start to do 20 over and then suddenly slam on their brakes. I just don't get it.
