RE: Reckless Drivers
To many people out there in this world that drive the way they do and expect others to drive the same, when someone doesn't then some get upset? People try to play cop and when they are not a cop both parties get upset. It's none of people business if people speed, it's law enforcement business. I find people get upset when pulling up to a stop sign , I stop and then go, and sometimes I don't wait 'My Turn' well there’s nothing in any law that’s says wait your turn, the law says come to a stop and proceed. I hate people that drive in the left lane of a 4 lane. Get the hell out of my way. If I want to speed what business is it of anyone’s except law enforcement. And most people that complain about others driving are just hypocrites. 'NO one stops completely at a stop sign, EVERY one speeds' I hate people that hold up a long line of traffic to let one person in line. I hate people that let someone in line at a construction site when they are in the wrong lane.
Most accidents on a freeway are caused by left lane drivers, just move over to the right lane grandma and rush hour traffic would go away.
Most states have a law that says,'slower traffic keep right' Guess what. If your going 90 mph and someone pulls up behind you, your slower traffic, KEEP RIGHT. Both should have tickets but ,again, thats law enforcmets business, and not someone who want you to drive like them.

RE: Reckless Drivers
No doubt Texas has some very aggressive drivers, I wont disagree, however, I think there is the fair share in every state. There is a difference between spirited driving and down right dumbass driving. What that guy did was pure ignorant and should have had his *** kicked. No, that does not represent Mustang owners in a positive, "fun" manner!

Okay. Do you want a response?
Wait. I see you're from Texas!
Sorry - now I understand!

I agree with others here, driving a GT begs forspeed and agility, that is why we bought it - can you say Muscle Car? But dumb, reckless driving is not acceptable in any state, any time, anywhere!

RE: Reckless Drivers
When I was stationed at Ft. Hood (1st Cav) I always thought that Texans were very considerate drivers. They always moved out of the way or onto the shoulder when a faster driver approached. You dont know road rage until you've driven here in St. Louis. Everyone sucks at driving here. Everyone except me of course!

RE: Reckless Drivers
This is such a sore subject and I don't think anyone can reasonably say that one person is more "right" than another. If you jeopardize my safety by driving like a dick, I will (over)react accordingly. However, if you are walking to your car and you see me spin a few cookies in a parking lot away from other vehicles and people, I don't want to hear you bitch about me driving irresponsibly. My cookies only affect me, my car and the owner of the parking lot. From my perspective, you cross the line when you involve me with the consequences of your actions. Otherwise, ifyou are the only one that pays for your arguably stupid decisions - do what you will.
