You are an exception to the rule.

I experience, on a daily basis, what everyone else has posted.

I've had my Camaro since 2009 and it's only gotten worse over the years.

These cars seem to bring out the "asshole" in other drivers. I've noticed at times when driving in traffic that everybody is just driving along normally and then all of a sudden when I pass someone (normal speed) they will turn into an asshole and start riding my ass, trying to cut me off and do a fly-by on me. It's f*cking ridiculous.

Doesn't matter what your driving to see stupid things on the road. It's all in your mind.

Stupid drivers come at any time in the day, in any vehicle, and of any age. They are like bugs….they are everywhere and come in all ranges of stupidity.

I feel all your pain. Driving in Madison, Wisconsin is a circus. The problem is, it is a city that has a culture of hating cars, but everyone drives anyway. So basically, they all drive, but don't really understand the notion.

Did anyone see that first episode of when the Ice Road Trucker show went to India and they were driving in the congested city? It's about like that. Lane and speed changes are entirely random and without regard to what is around them.

I remember when my dad went to Mexico City he described their driving that way. He even said they use their bumpers as horns... In other words if you are going too slow they will bump you to get you to go faster or get out if their way.

If any of you plan to drive to the DMV (DC, MD, VA) let it be known there are some SERIOUS violators of this in this area. I vote on the Run ah MF'r Off The Road Free Day once a week to combat this issue....LMAO!!! My SUV will be the one with hash marks on the back glass for all the SomBit@hes that i got even with for cuting me off in my Camaro!

I was told that in Mexico City today, they will unload AK-47s on your car for even looking at them.
