To all the drivers out there, it’s OK to take your foot off the brake pedal once in a while. Going around a corner doesn’t require foot on brake pedal at all times. —!

What really bugs me is when people slow down to crawl when making a turn…especially when we’re both making a left turn and there’s now a car coming toward me and people on my ass
The crawling turns drive me mental
I saw a driver who actually almost completely stopped while turning. I thought, if you are worried about tipping over so much, drive a vehicle that’s not so tall like Soul and Cube.
I’m a pretty calm person in real life who refrains from cursing and is generally too lazy to get angry or bothered, but in the car, >. Shit like this enrages me. That and the people who decide to take their Sunday drive on Monday at 8 in the morning. Oh and the people who are chatting up their passenger to high hell, usually some middle aged man trying to chat up some woman who dried out years ago.
I’m not perfect behind the wheel and accidents do happen but, God be with the person who hurts my sweet wheels.
is your face hurting donk? ice and drugs
I look like this http://www.lakeshoreimages.com/images9/chi…
and almost fell asleep in my porridge this morn … that’s what codeine will do ya. Pretty much everything in the freezer has been christened by my face. Hanging in there, reading the bitch board, reading some books, watching some tv. Eh, not to bad.
dearest donkey. i can empathize, so can me ma. she had her wisdom teeth out at fifty… looked like brian mulroney
I hate slow turners … I’m sure a lot of people get t-boned doing it too … I especially hate it when someone pulls out of a side street at warp speed to get ahead of you and then can’t find the f*cking gas pedal…grrrrrrrr…smashy smashy time !!!
Not the slow turners that bother me so much, it’s the ones who never take their foot off the break pedal.
Wow – Donkey, you have whiskers?!?! ;>)
I agree HRMboy! On a daily basis, people whip out in front of me only to go 30 so I have to slow down…they could have waited one more second until I passed if they wanted to go slow but noo
well now, what did you expect them to do with it? tap dance on one foot.
and donk, i have a tooth almost coming out as i write this, so i know your agony, and no dentist will touch it, because of the infection i now have, bastards.
How about the drivers who have their left foot on the brake and their right foot on the gas. Way to go at ruining your breaks. Morons.
