don't like to turn on their blinkers and don't like to turn off their high beams! Failure to use a turn signal doesn't bother me, but the damn high beams.  I want to put the brightest damn light bar on my truck and burn retinas. Even when I flash my HB's, nothing. Burn a retina or two, I bet they'd be turning of those brights quick!
Ok, I'm done... |

He's got to be talking about being in baton rouge. The nuttiest bastards on the face of the planet drive here and if they're not nutty before they get here, they immediately go full retard upon arrival.
I had one chick run the red light so bad the other day, I swear she was weaving in between cars to cross the intersection! |

I'm in Shreveport... I agree with Captain_Morgan, if I coming up on you fairly quick in the left lane, scoot the fuck over! It's a general consensus and the law in some places that the left lane is for passing... It is a state law that on state highways and interstates the left lane is for passing cars only. The way I interpret that is even if I'm running 80 on the interstate, I'll get over in the right lane until I need to pass someone. |

Same in TX. |

You can't fix stupid. I can cite them, but it doesn't make them any smarter. I bought a used 2010 Whelen all-LED light bar in the hope more would get out of my way when code 3... 20-25% still don't; down from 30-35%.  Why are you buying your own light bar?

Because the only ones available from motorpool sucked and lacked directional indicators aft. Plus I really wanted to gain that 5-10%. I figure if I never succeed in breaking it, I'll hang it in the man cave when I retire, or give it to the grandkids at story time... "why yes, that very one, right there. Way before laser bars came out."  |

(Vagina being the worst from my experience) & I agree 100%. But you'd be surprised at the percentage of people who DO NOT use there mirrors at all. Tunnel vision, as long as it's behind them, it's not there concern. |

This state has to be the worst for people just pulling out in front of you. I'll be the ONLY truck on the road for a half mile and some fuck face will just pull right out 30 yards in front of me and take his sweet ass time accelerating to 5 under the speed limit. If you are going to be so impatient that you cant wait 10 seconds for me to pass, you need to speed the hell up when you get on the road.
East Texas is the worst about people driving slow. They get a 75mph speed limit and drive 60mph and there is no way to pass for miles at a time. |
