I see people out there spending money on the car to improve it … If you spend half that effort just working on your driving skills, making you and the car work together as a team, then you’ll go faster – period. To make the car go a second faster on the track takes a lot more energy and money than making yourself drive it one second faster.

Everyday I become more and more convinced that there are just too many people in this state. And the people coming into the state get dumber and dumber. A lot of people have no common sense, no courtesy, and no CLUE about whats going on around them.

One thing that irks me is when a bunch of people are trying to turn right at an intersection, and the only thing stopping them is one guy who is going straight who stopped 20 feet before the light. Or when you are coming up to a turn to turn right, and someone speeds up and cuts you off, only to have to wait at the red light, and I'm stuck there.

I'm getting a bash bar for my eclipse. and its not gonna be an eclipse its gonna be a hummer. a hummer with a .50 cal turret in the back. and when people cut me off and act rude like that, I'm gonna permanently cut THEM off. and then i'll flip them off. thats road rage

Yea, im with you. I dont understand why its so difficult to turn your wheel 3 degrees to the right for a second or two and not piss of 238957298374982734 people on the way to where your going. People are so goddamn selfish and arrogant these days. I wish i had a rocket launcher in my bumper.

the right lane should be cruising. Should you need to pass someone here you move over one left lane. If you find youself needing to pass someone in this lane, you should move over again to the left lane. If you find someone here going slower than you, they really are supposed to move over. You shouldn't be cruising in the left lanes at all ever unless passing. Drivers ed never enforced this rule over here, which astonished me. But in the UK, where they deal with worse traffic congestion, you get pulled over if you don't follow this rule. Not to mention passing on the right is forbidden. If most americans would follow this rule the roads would flow so much better.

Did some of you people just now start driving or something?

It's always been this shitty. Drivers in Tampa/Florida in general suck huge.
