STOP DRIVING ABREAST!

Alright, to everyone who rubbernecks at accidents trying to get a good "look"... cmon, what the fuck?!

We all got places to go, places to be, and the fact that you are turning your neck to see someone get pulled over or an accident that has none of your concern just makes me sick. You slow down your car, trying to get a good look at like 5 mph.

Fuck Y'all, and stop driving the same speed as the car next to you in a two lane road. It's calling driving abreast and its illegal. You cannot pace the car next to you so the whole goddamn parkway is trailing at your fucking speed. Get the fuck over to the left lane and park your ass in the shoulder, grab your nuts and fuck off.

fucking dicks. always some retarded fuck picking his nose, on the phone, or trying to squint out of 2 inch thick glasses with hair growing out of your ears.

45 mph on a 50 mph zone for 25 minutes is a fucking stupid joke..

I hate? So what, fuck off. Im venting.

Totally with ya buddy. Hate both practices.

When you get to a rubbernecking scene, lock your eyes on the bumper in front of you, and believe it or not, you will get through faster. And the guy behind you, if he does the same, will go even faster...and pretty soon the 15 mile backup because some guy got pulled over is GONE!

Rubberneckers are up there with people who block the box for me.

Amen! I've always thought that if there was a naked chick on the side of the road, nobody would even notice. But if someone is pulled over, holy smokes... gotta look at that! Maybe people are mezmorized by the blue lights or something. I'll never understand.

The occasional site on the road makes driving worth it and breaks the monotony. Take a deep breath and try to relax, perhaps leave a little earlier to allow more time, because I will look when I damn well fucking want to. Cars slow not only to look but also to make the area safer for incident response. And there is nothing you can do about it except type more words in this thread. Wahh.

I call those drivers "pacers." They driving me nuts.

It as if they have no mind of their own and just blindly do what other cars do.

While I'm on my pissed off traffic soap box,

1) People in stores that push their shopping carts around while looking the complete opposite direction.

2) People in stores who seem to always want to block me, cart completely across an aisle or I go to walk by them and they step out in front of me they're clueless to anybody around them.

How about, people at a stop light that form a long line of cars in one lane when there is an open lane next to them. People are naturally followers.

That doesn't bug me as much as people stopping 15 feet back from the stop light line. Then they inch up slowly every 2 minutes.

This annoys me most when they aren't close enough to the intersection for the light to know someone's there. This mostly happens on left arrows. They either do that or overshoot it way far and get the same result.

As for rubbernecking, I'm already going slow because of all the people going slow in front of me so I'm taking a look.

Isn't there some new law that says you're required to both reduce your speed and if practical, change lanes away from the pullover? Another reason to slow down is to try to gauge how long the cop will be busy at the stop -- if he's about to get back in his car, he'll be hunting for you, next. It's "speed away the hell from here" or "slow down and don't be speeding for a little while" decision.

I like the signs that say "Aggressive Driving Imaging In Use". I know that when I'm not driving, I'm sitting at home in the dark, brooding, mentally rehearsing my aggressive driving...Nice to see it acknowledged!

I'm not sure if it's a new law or all the details but I think it's considered reckless driving not to do this.

fvck all those people who slow down to gawk.

slowing down for safety == dropping from 65 down to 50/45, not dropping from 65 to 15 and causing other accidents because you are so starved for seeing some injured - driving while texting - homicide victim.

also, for all you muther fuggers that know for a GD fact you will be getting off (right exit) of the interstate in upwards of 5 to 10 miles, please get the fvck over to the left until about 2 miles until you will exit so that people getting to exits before yours don't have to deal with your sorry ass clogging the exit lanes, not to mention the people getting on won't have to deal with you in their lane either. -- prime example 66West/East at 123. How many retards do you see hanging out in the right hand lane when heading west that probably won't be getting off of 66 until Gainesville? Kindly get the fvck out of the right lane and stay out of it, until you are well past Manassas and almost home. You just slow down the whole process!

If I see one of those morons that leaves 30 feet in front of them before a light I always go around and pull in front of them, you should see how some of them beat on the steering wheel when you do this. The other one that gets me is the people that slow down to 10mph to get in the turn lane, that lane is meant for turning as well as decelerating so get the fuck in the turn lane and then slow down. I still think most people fail to realize that their car can accelerate, they always slow down and end up coming to a complete stop to merge, you can speed up and get in front of other cars, that option does exist. The last one is the dick that is about to miss his turn and slams on the brakes and blocks the intersection trying to make said turn. You missed it you fucking moron, it's your fault you were to busy doing something other than driving to realize your turn was coming up, if you miss it you need to continue on and turn around at the next suitable place, this is FFX County, its not like you're going to have to drive 10 miles before you can turn around.

The problem is that people don't pay any attention to what is going on around them, just like the idiots who stop at the top of an escalator and pull out their tourist maps, get the fuck out of the way and read your map.

I hate this as well. When driving between Charlottesville and Northern Virginia, or (even more so) 95 South, I always seem to come across one or two cops doing this. My dad used to call it a rolling roadblock.

Yup, done this too. Most of them then pull up real quick like I stole something from them and they want it back.

I have read that stopping short at a light is a sure sign of drug or alcohol use. I'm not sure that is case; I just think they are totally clueless. I know stopping short is a ticket.

It's called Dogging. I do it all the time. I drive just under the spped limit in the right lane. I love to see how many people pass me. I drive from Lorton to Washington DC. I leave for work with enough time to change a flat tire and still be on time. (kinda like Hank Hill) I really enjoy wittnessing a-holes who just have to pass me because I travel at a safe speed and don't waste gas. The worst offenders are the cut through drivers from prince william county. I love it when they try to pass and have to swing back behind me when they come up on a car turning or a slow truck in the left lane. I love the sound of your passing gear as I you try to get a look at me and cut in front of me. If I can get you to flip me off I consider that a game winner.

I also conseal carry so I don't give a shit who you are.

I've been guilty of this, but that's mostly because...

> The problem is that people don't pay any attention

... of this. Sure, I can gun it to try and merge in, but some people don't understand the concept of "braking" and "considerate driving." I'd rather the person behind me get pissed off than get sideswiped by some soccer mom.

The absolute worst is the on-ramp to 395 S from Glebe Road.


View Larger Map

You can't tell from the picture, but those two lanes are coming up over a hill; traffic usually does around 50 MPH, so at the end of the single merge lane, you have two seconds from when you see the car to when it's beside you. In the afternoon on a week day, traffic flows pretty consistently, and I'm not about to blindly leap out into traffic, hoping the oncoming car will slow down if I do.

What happens about 40% of the time is, some asshole in a minivan, massive pick-up truck, or SUV will pull right up on my bumper, and block my view entirely. I inch up to look past them, and they're right on my ass. Then they tear out around me, beeping their horn. On a couple occasions, these prick-touchers have almost been rear-ended in the manner I'm trying to avoid.

Seriously, it's a shitty set-up.

Well, see, this is how it works in this country: The right lane is for people who like to drive slow. Maybe yu'd rather the slow people hang out in the left lane? Quit whining.
