Let's Stereotype Vehicles
I have read many threads about BMW Douches and I know all owners aren't created equally so I apologize in advance. But this MF'er in a BMW a few moments ago almost caused a collision on the Tollway. The idiot flies up the entrance ramp doing about 90+ and almost sideswiped my TL when the lanes merged. I swear wtf!
Why cant people drive like an Honda Accord Owners/Educated/Moves over to let you pass/Socially Conscious . Sorry I needed to vent.

I've always thought I would rather have a BMW driver acting like an asshole than someone in a shitbox who is oblivious to everyone else. At least if the BMW driver hits you chances are they have insurance.

I find most Prius owners feel their car's green image gives them free reign to drive however they want, because they're "saving the planet". It's funny when people drive hybrids like a sports car, because the end up getting worse mileage than me.

I got behind a Prius last night that lost probably 15 mph while going up a hill, they must have totally gotten off of the brake. You're already getting 40+ mpg, you're allowed to keep a constant speed up a hill!
I encountered 3 dickhead BMW drivers yesterday. E36 M3 made a lane change in the middle of an intersection and cut me off like hell, 335i Coupe was riding my ass while I was going 18 over in the left lane with nowhere to go, 650i Coupe was riding in my blind spot and every time I sped up or slowed down to get behind/infront of him, he mimicked my move so I couldn't get over.

I can tell you from experience in dealing with thse people in person, but dodge truck owners are true redneck speds. When i worked @ at&t, i had the pleasure of dealing with them personally. But these guys are dopes on the road too. I don't know what it is about those trucks.

Prius owners are the worst. They have a car that does 0-60 in the who know how many seconds yet they think they can burn you off the line every time to the next stop sign or red light. And when they're not getting their 40-50mpg, they complain. Plus, they always drive with their glaring HID headlights on during the day. Even on the expressways, they ride your behind even when you're 10mph above the speed limit already!
Pickup truck drivers are mostly rednecks and just bec. they're 4WD, they think they can fly through a snow storm. That's exactly why we see 9/10 cars in the ditch are pickup trucks!

You're right, most Prius's (is that grammatically correct?) I see always have their headlights on. Annoying.
And not ALL truck drivers are rednecks. My dad had a truck for 20 years and he's nowhere close to being a redneck.

I hate to stereotype, but I agree there is some truth to this. Of course, I don't think it can be considered a broad generalization as there are people that prefer to drive pickups that are in no way "redneck". I do see a number of Dodge diesels running around, however, modified with lift kits, big tires, a set of balls hanging from the trailer hitch, and if they're particularly proud, a huge "I'd Rather be Cummin' than Strokin'" proudly emblazoned across the back window.
I generally have a strong desire to punt the driver, his cousin, and their three kids off the road.

nothing wrong with them being on during the day but it's bec. the prius' reflector HIDs are glaring as heck...thus makes them annoying! they are worst than those escalades!

^^hmmmm.. I guess I never pay attention to that.
Is there lot of 2way street where you live by? Where I live is either freeway or at least 4way street, so I really don't see any of xenon light affecting me.

This is most def not true of most truck drivers. Dodge ones seem to take the cake sometimes.I hate to stereotype, but I agree there is some truth to this.
