BMW Drivers attitudes suck

No, seriously almost every BMW driver I see drives like an asshat, period.

Today, I saw an asshat in a BMW 645i today weaving and tailgating in traffic on I290 probably driving 110mph. Then second instance, I see an X3 on Lake Cook Rd driving like they are a fricking king of the road. At the stop light, it was when 2 lanes become one the X3 is on the right lane that will merge into the left lane and then drives like an idiot. Third time I saw a 745i weaving in traffic going home. Why do you BMW drivers think you own the road?

Your cars aren't the ultimate driving machine, the M3 is overrated, I'd rather drive an Audi RS4 or Lotus Elise. So sue me.

I'm just sick and tired of the bad attitudes of BMW drivers with their egos, yes I see Honda Civics and Accords drivers driving like an idiot too, but I guess they like driving fast in a slow car.

I saw a black 645i yesterday and he drove like any normal adult would

Assholes are everywhere, they don't just drive one brand of cars...

I've seen assholes in $2200 beat up used ford rangers...

You just happen to notice the assholes in flashy cars more often, 'cause they... ah... drive flashy cars

I see more people driving the speed limit in high priced cars (in the right lane) than I do driving like assholes...

If it's swangin, it's usually a twentysomthing y/o in a cheap used shitbox

I watched a woman in a 90's dodge caravan go down a one way street the wrong way to turn into the beer store after cutting off a guy on a bike at the light...

...her other car is obviously a bmw.

I call on this one, no way there is a Ford Ranger that's worth that much money. What was it, gold plated and encrusted with diamonds?

Erm....

I don't think it is just BMW drivers. Really anybody with a craving for speed that has a big engine under their hood is going to drive like an asshat. I think it is just more obvious when these exotic (well...not exotic..you know what I mean though) cars going weaving in and out, ya know?? But yes, I have seen plenty of BMW drivers drive like that.

Oh my god. What color was the X3? I think you are talking about me. Although I don't drive like a maniac, I like to accelerate fast there (it's a perfect spot). I don't act like I am king of the road either. Maybe it is somebody I know...

And no it is not just BMW drivers. You will find that the majority of us drive civilized.

I wouldn't have said that if I were you.

Those are just things you just keep to yourself.

Actually, I remember pulling up to a 2002-2003 Acura TL at that exact light, at like 10pm a few months ago. I was flashing my lights, and trying to get the idiot's attention to let him know that not a single person can see you because you don't know how to switch on your lights.

Honestly, for every BMW driver I have seen acting as such I see twenty of them driving normally. Hate the idiot behind the wheel not the brand.

its all about the driver not the car. I like to go fast...but I follow some of my own rules I set:

-Don't cut anyone off...unless they are blocking you in, pull out in front of you and go slow, or are driving in the fast lane slow and see you coming

-ALWAYS USE A BLINKER! and merge over slowly don't jsut make a sharp cut

-Do not tailgate...you won't get anywere faster...the person in front of you usually goes the same speed or slower to piss you off cause you are acting like a douche.

I see more people driving like idiots in riced out civics, tc's, and mazdas then BMW's. Most BMW's I see are driving the speed limit enjoying the ride

It's not unfair to say that certain brands appeal to certain personalities, and that certain personbalities have a certain way driving.

Since we've established that as fact; Volvo drivers can't drive so they bought a car that would minimize injury to themselves, VWs apeal to young people - young people are agressive and they're smarter than you, BMWs appeal to people who want to enjoy driving and are willing to enjoy it at your expense. Everyone else just drifts with the currents.

I think it goes along the tagline for bimmer that this is ultimate driving machine so those drivers are pushing the car hard ....

I don't drive like that (all the time) but i can understand where it comes from ....
