Yep.

This works especially well with convertables and really shined up cars. I typically put my window down and point over to the "slow lanes" after the drenching. The lady drivers get especially pissed.

Awesome Krambo. I need to try this.

Snooty import cars would be good candidates too.

It usu. seems like some dick uses his washers after my truck is washed. Due to how it rains here & my work schedule, it's tuff for me to keep truck clean. Sometimes I just wanna chill. So if it's clean & the washer trick is done to me, I go apeshit. I might need to get in front of ya & slow ya back down like some have done.

Another thing I DESPISE is people who run that merge/yield lane all the way out, try to sneak in, when there are open areas well before the end to merge in.. If your that guy trying to sneak in, I am that guy that your trying to sneak.. Not gonna happen..
Here, they call that lane crashing. They write tickets for it. Esp. during construction.

If u can't merge probably, as most can't, you're impeding traffic, that's a ticket. Where it isn't, it needs to be.

Spoolin, do u really find a lot of people doin 50 over that u have to pass em?!?

By the time I read this far, I was crackin up. Hilarious guys.

HEADHUNTER92, blinker thing is smart. But we no longer live in a courteous society. Long as I get mine. Kinda sad.

That was an arbitrary number Tom.
However having spent alot of my childhood in europe with a lunatic Dad at the wheel of crazy cars I learned to appreciate the Rules of the Road of not just Germany but most European countries. Cops are more geared towards penalizing people who disrupt the flow of traffic than they are for people who are driving slightly over the speed limit or other stupid inconsiquential infractions. Someone else mentioned that the fast lane on the Autobahn is meant just for passing, just want to point out that that law is the same in France, Switzerland, Italy and a few other European countries.
