Class 3 FFL has it's advantages, really cool toys come your way.

I really like the horn mod. I wonder what the $400 kit sounds like?

If people are gonna indulge in that kind of douchebaggery, then I will match 'em with my own message...
I'll have: "How's my driving? call: 1 800 fukk off", all across my back glass.

im not gonna lie. if i saw a car with that sticker i would intentionally go the same speed as the person in the lane next to me so the car with the sticker couldn't pass.

Ist Cali where the term "road rage" was coined? I sure would be afraid that the guy bring blocked would indeed have a big stick and follow the blockers home.

FWIW a guy in my local club that is a well established douche bag has that exact sticker on his windshield.


OT but my uncle used to have a bumper sticker back in the day that said "No thanks, I'm Drunk" ranther than "No Thanks, I'm Driving" ask him how many times he got pulled over lol.

And what happens when you're a cop and see that douche in your rear view mirror? LOL.

Technically...everyone owns it.

I hate that myself, but same for staying in the left lane when not passing, or getting ready to turn. Not sure how much worse or better it is here compared to other states/regions though...

I'd never have that sign, as it does scream douche to me, personally. However, I'd love to have that $1.5k train horn for those times when it's me behind some guy for 3 miles on our RT1 bypass before I can see the right lane has been clear for 2, then pass him as he was doing 55 in a 65. Or the other local favorite of initially shifting lanes to pass at .00000015 mph faster, a car length before I'm about to pass the guy.

A sign is not a pre-requisite for being a douche. It's just advertising. Not everyone advertises.

Well, if you're a cop and you're cruising under the speed limit, then you're just as much as a douchebag as anybody else that does it, and depending on the state you're in, could be subject to a Citizen's arrest depending on how much of a douche you feel like being.

If you're not illegally in the left lane, then you're probably speeding, which means he who is following you is both speeding and following too close, so he gets two tickets. Of course, if your lights aren't on, why are you speeding? If not responding to a call you're subject to the same laws as everybody else. Except for, I've been informed, seat belt laws.

That is, unless you're one of those "special" cops who thinks laws don't apply to you because it's your job to enforce them.

Somewhat of a corollary to this: Everyone is a douche. Many are just better at hiding it than others.
