I just came home and on the way I found 3 dumb drivers. One of them (Karen in a 8th Gen Chevrolet Malibu) started flooring it for no reason, then someone in their red loud V6 Charger was driving aggressively. It was annoying hearing that loud V6 every 5 seconds. They would purposely change lanes just to speed and rev their engine. Then, someone in their 2nd Generation Equinox changed lanes without a blinker. I want to hear your experience with bad drivers.
At least yours drive quickly, I got people going 30 in 45 zones on two lane roads (one each way). In my opinion, that's far worse.
Now that's torture, but at least it is safer than turning with no blinker or speeding and endangering everyone.
See, I used to think that until I saw how hard people have to brake for these types of people... I knew a guy was actually following a Chevy Equinox in their 2003 Volvo v70, so they couldn't see around the Chevy. They were following a safe distance behind, but the Chevy had to slam on the brakes for a slow car and as the Volvo was an older car, they nearly slammed into the back of the Chevy. TL;DR: Slow is just as dangerous as fast, if not more.
Thats literally normal traffic? Either its 10 under the limit, or drivers like the ones you encountered. Most cars here don't even have all the brake lights working, today I was behind a Malibu with a broken brake light switch, so the lights were on all the time. I rarely see turn signals and nobody looks at all before they change lanes.
How about people who do 20-30 under the limit, then finally you get the chance to overtake said idiot (lots of hills, crests and corners here) as you speed up to over take them they speed up ! Now this would be no problem in Torrie, just plant my right foot down and watch those stupid pricks wonder why i give them the finger and fly right by them. But in the Corolla, its a true scary moment, just when you though 500 metres was plenty, suddenly your very close to the end with only metre between me and the car i just overtook when i finally get back into the left lane when some truck goes by in the opposite lane that i was just in. God i hate powerless engines. Oh and here we have the Commodore (a rebadged chev Impala, or is it the opposite?), always give them a wide berth, 'cos there usually moments away from doing something immensely stupid. Also people never check their mirrors and are always looking on their phones, seriously if i had a dollar for every time i saw someone driving whilst on their phone... And is it just me or is it just people who own/drive classic cars always seem to be the more responsible, rules abiding on the road ?
Considering how popular muscle cars are in Florida, the 70mph speed limits in some areas, and the fact that so many of the roads are freeways, highways, or normal streets that are wide enough and straight enough to be either, I'm not surprised that aggressive driving is a norm. At least that's from what I've seen and heard. Idk about norther Florida though, I've only been to West Palm Beach and outer Miami.
Muscle cars aren't that popular here. Its mostly crossovers, midsize sedans, and pickups. I guess you could consider some of the V6 sedans and V8 trucks muscle cars if you use the most basic definitions of big engine in normal car. The road network here is the same as most of the US, except that every turn is a 90° angle. Some of the problem is that they rarely enforce laws because the police drive just as badly, and the DMV basically hands out licenses for showing up.
Ah ok, I just thought that they were popular since on my trip I would see a good 4-5 Challengers and Corvettes in one place in less than an hour of time. And also cause of this: Granted, that's the only source I actually looked at, so I wouldn't be surprised if it's incorrect.
I saw a cool red car today, but I couldn't tell what model or make it was. It was an old coupe from the 60's I believe, with a loud carbureted 4 cylinder engine.
My younger brother (10 y/o ) loves beamng, he found out about mods yesterday, is it ok if he downloads them off of this website? Because he knows about having to be 16+ to be on the forums.
Just saw a lowered 2000's Ford F-350 Dually Single Cab with concealed door handles, as well as a riced out 240SX with a fartcan, a big wing, some decals, as well as no paint at all.
