    Default It is true what they say about CA drivers

    I sold my Jetta this weekend and the buyer flew in from CA to buy the car and drive it back. I picked him up at the airport and he drove it from there back to my place to check out the vehicle and do pass off the money.

    He tested every switch in that vehicle EXCEPT for the turn signals.

    Best way to get in to see me at the shop is to call or email Shannon and make an appointment.

    At least S.CA drivers drive slower than we do.

    Thought that was Coloradans! Every time I been in Texas (lived there twice) they always scooted to the right(or stepped on gas), for my lead foot.... Here in Colorado they just sit there... Douches

    A year ago I was back in NYC and it was a mad-house. I had a prejudice when I went and come to find out I was wrong. I did notice that when you get trapped in a lane and need to get over, in order to turn, or get out of a turn lane...they use their turn signal and they honor yours (they slow down and give you a gap). In some places, when you turn your signal, they close the gap.

    A month ago I was on a trip to the nationals. One of my team members, from Long Beach, me and 2 others went out to dinner. I immediately noticed that he was driving like a wild man....when we left the hotel it was full-speed ahead. Then we turned onto I-40...damn the torpedoes, whipping the wheel to change lanes (I didn't notice the turn signal or not). It was like he was late for a meeting in rush-hour, trying to make up being 5 minutes late. I think what it was, was that we were leaving later than what he perceived that we needed to leave in order to be there at 6:30, and we couldn't be late for our dinner appointment. I told him to slow down as there was no rush. My other partner (also in the back-seat) says the same thing, no rush. Here it comes...he says, you have to drive aggressively, like this, in LA, SO-Cal, or Long Beach (one of the 3 or another) or else you will get in to an accident.

    I swear this morning it was like the floodgates of hell opened up and let all the morons on the road.. I was stuck doing 35 on EVERY road I was on till the highway.. Regardless of the speed limit.. Old women, Old men, Asians, Old Asians.. it was like the retirement home gave out day passes and car rentals..

    A couple were CO tags..but a few I had never seen and didn't get up close enough to see where they were from..

    And round and round we go.

    Its the Californians.

    The Texans.

    The Coloradans (or is it Coloradoans?).

    Everyone drives like a jerk to the other guy.

    I know I have a tendency to drive like a jerk. All I ask is to GET THE EFF OUT OF THE PASSING LANE.

    And I'm done.

    My thoughts as well. Great, another crappy drivers thread (not so much the OP, but it didn't take long.) Again, the vast majority of crappy drivers I see in CO have CO plates, not out of state plates.

    Girlscouts? Hmmm, I don't know... I think it's kinda dangerous to teach young girls self esteem and leadership skills.
