    I Love pulling a trailer in traffic. I whip that bitch around like a 16' mace, people stay a little farther away from me.

      Truth. Aint happening on my watch. I keep a close distance to the car in front, let go of the wheel and stare at who ever is trying to merge as if to say, "what happens next is all up to you, buddy".

        lolz

        After 183/121 in HEB was finished, they did not replace the yield signs on the service roads. When you exit the highway it is game on. Also, when losers exiting the highway do not respect the solid white line, it can make for some interesting scenarios as they try to undercut people ahead of them moving to the right.

          I had a lady in a Dodge truck yesterday stop at the exact same time I did, with a car next to her. She was on my left and the other car stopped shortly after her. I just assumed she was a typical Waco driver and would blast through the intersection so I waited and she never left, a couple of seconds later I hit the gas and so did she. Figuring they both would have gone I stopped, so did she.

          I actually had to wave at her to go 4 times before she left the stop sign and of course the other car just sat there.

          If you want something to bitch about lets talk about people on the access road that don't yield to vehicles exiting the freeway. The sign says Yield To Ramp, it means you yield to people on the ramp. It doesn't matter if you have 3 lanes on the access road you are supposed to yield to the ramp.

            I never thought there would be anything that would irk me more than left lane campers, but this trend of racing to the end of the on ramp ahead of as many vehicles as possible and cutting over at the last second takes the cake. I thoroughly enjoy the people in trucks and brodozers that see this coming and hang out halfway in the merge lane to try and cut them off.

            Another thing I've taken notice of is all the tracks in the medians where people bail from the freeway to the access road to get out of stand still traffic and how TXDOT or whoever is actually digging trenches and creating (impassable) mounds to prevent people from doing so.

            Everyone is soooo important these days that they can't be troubled to deal with a little traffic. Me, me, me. Now, now, now. Go, go, go.

              Should be called Defensive class. Now the ones that NEED to yield are the ones on the frontages roads.

                I am fine with zipper merge. I am not fine with the cock suckers that get notified of their lane ending a half mile back, but they want to wait until the last second and squeeze in. As far as I am concerned, those asshole aint getting in.

                I did that on I35 just the other day. I needed out of the left lane, so I didn't exit 183, one guy moved over to make room and a dude in a Mercedes decided to ignore my blinker and floor it to cut me off. I was already changing lanes.... Didn't hit him, but I think I made him think twice.

                  I'm so glad I moved out of the city when it comes to traffic. Just dealing with my 26 mile drive from Saginaw to Grapevine daily was to much. Fuck that rat race!!

                    word. dont be a cocksucker, let people on the highway. same way if traffic is slowed ill leave a gap to let people turn onto the main road. but douchebags not yielding to the exit ramp makes me want to go on a shooting spree. it happens mostly to me during work while im in a truck pulling a trailer. cant flip them off or run them out of the lande because the company wrap on the truck

                      You cant use a signal in dallas traffic because as soon as people see it, they make DAMN SURE to gun it and close the gap so you cant get over.

                        If someone is merging onto the highway, move over a lane or let your foot off the gas to make it easy.
                        If I'm in the right lane I do. But that's why is soon as I get on the freeway I stick to the left lane. But if they have the blinker on I'll be courteous and flash my highbeams giving them a break. But if someone's being a dickhead and just tries to cut in front of me at the last minute i usually won't give it to em.

                          When did it become the norm to ignore emergency vehicles?

                            Denver is way worse. Every red light at least 5-10 people keep going. Icy snowy blizzard weather? They have the same theory about yielding but its in the ice. I'm sure at some point this winter I'll take out a few Subaru's on the highway.

                                I take a whatever view toward all of it. Shit'll happen and people will do stupid shit. I don't get mad about it.

                                My only real gripe is no courtesy at red lights about people not letting people leave.

                                Say there's soemone exiting a parking lot and wants to go left. There's a red light and people are stacking up. You SEE the person wanting exit the parking lot and turn left. You also SEE that by moving forward that extra 10 fucking feet, you are blocking this Person and everyone behind them in for a long ass time.

                                That's a dick move.
