Cars driven by "idiots".

This is supposed to be a "LITE" thread. If you happen to drive one please don't flame me. Learn to laugh at yourself.


When I see someone driving a Hummer/Hum V I think idiot.

Please fill in the blank.

When I see someone driving a ________________I think idiot.

Yea, and SUV's in a totally urban area is another favorite of mine. Today I saw a Cadillac Escalade (?) what the heck is that all about....if you've money for a Caddy, buy a caddy, if you want a sturdy off the road, get a Range Rover, but a luxury SUV is an oxymoron
Oh, and I love watching the gas totals for these #$!#@ vehicles; always in the triple digits.

When I see someone driving a truck that has been lowered I think idiot. Why take an off road vehicle and lower it so it won't even go over a speed bump.

When I see someone driving a car that's way to big/small for them I think idiot. Like when you see a 6'7" 325 pound dude get out of a Geo Metro. Or, a 5'1" women get out of a Ford Explorer.

Hahaha. It will be a 3 volume set. And don't get me started with idiots and parking. I don't know how most of these people passed their driving test.

Yep, SUVs in the middle of the city drive me nuts. WTF. I mean, do you really need an off-road utility vehicle to navigate the mean streets of Auckland City?! Oh, and the lil' boy racer hondas. The ones where they've souped them up in a vain attempt to make their penis sizes seem bigger. IDIOTS.

When I think hummers (and big SUVs) I dont necessarily think idiot so much as asshole. Since the majority of the people who drive these monstrosities do it simply for the 'look at me Im cool' value of it and certainly not for any utility value at all. These are the guys that think they are just naturally more special then anyone else out there and justify it by having a big expensive gas guzzling vehicle which they drive badly and park without care for anyone elses convenience. Assholes one and all. Not to mention selfish, vain, shallow, insecure, short sighted, hypocritical, etc., etc., etc...

Today I saw an oxymoron!

A huge silve SUV was ahead of me at a traffic light.

On the back bumper was a sticker "curb greenhouse gasses, save the environment".

For a second there I thought you said Catholic Escalade

All right, here's a bit of on-topic ness for you.

I Cannot Stand It when drivers behind me think that they can speed up until they hit your bumper (exaggeration, but who cares!) Why can't they go the speed limit ALL the time? If they went the speed limit in the first place, they wouldn't have to whine about how I'm such a "slow driver", because most likely they wouldn't ever even see my car if they went the speed limit! But no. No, they HAVE to go fast, they have to annoy the heck out of me by driving close to my bumper. Haven't these people read the manual!? It says you're supposed to keep such and such a distance between you and the car ahead of you.
