Only place around here I hate the drivers is Ft. Myers and state road 82. I certainly think income and background factor too. Those lower income areas in Ft Myers on MLK and on out to Lehigh I for sure notice how terrible the drive.

I'm sure you see it too in the news Lehigh, state road 82 seems to have the worst drivers and most drunk drivers.

In collier county Golden Gate aka Golden Ghetto has the worst drivers. Granted some of them probably don't even have a license and might be illegals in Golden gate. Golden Gate and Naples Manor bad drivers.
I-4 between orland and tampa is ugly also,but they just keep building more developments.

Some shitbox got all over my bumper yesterday when I slowed down to 6-7 mph to go over a speedbump.

No, I'm not slamming my $47K car with expensive magnetic suspension over a massive speedbump so you can get home to watch Netflix 10 seconds sooner.

They stayed all over me for about half a mile and almost got to have a face to face encounter with my Glock 19X. I really need to get my rear facing dashcam installed.

Everyone wants to run, all makes & models. It's worst on the highway. I make some long 900 mile road trips (in one go) from time to time and everything from minivans to even an Audi R8 V10. It's like... piss off.

I almost would worry they were car jackers. One advantage about having a v8 Camaro. If you gotta get away in a hurry you should have no problem smoking 95 percent of the cars on the road.

Bloomfield Hills, not Beverly Hills? Camaro Club parks at the CVS on the west side of Woodward north of 14 Mile. There’s a Jersey Mike’s a couple doors down that gets a lot of our business.

I don’t have strong feeling on this, but recently a random guys walked up to my family and I at wm as we were getting in my car. I was parked as far away as you could get and he starts off the conversation by swearing up a storm , which started and concerned me as I was with my family. Long story short, he was actually a nice guy,, but wanted to express how angry it made him to see drivers with fancy (my car is fancy I guess )cars taking up two spots. He went on and on , but before he left he told me he appreciated me only taking one spot and that I had a really nice car. So yeah, I guess keep in mind, that that really bothers some people!

Yeah, NEVER take 2 spots, it does throw some folks into a rage and you may get your car keyed.

I remember at my old job in college. I just bought my 2012 GT. I'm parked way out on the lot, and my boss is parked a couple spots over from me. No other cars around. So some douche bag decides to cut through the parking lot in between our two cars despite all the room in the world.

Yep there is always that, and they do it on purpose unfortunately.

^^^ This 100%. You are ASKING for people to pay attention to your car when you double park. It pisses some people off and you are asking for your car to get Keyed. Park out at the back of the lot, but only take one parking spot. I never double park.

Dude, this is a Chevy Camaro. Go buy a BMW if you want to take up two spots when you park.
