How much patience do you have for...

[jtvang125]

Drivers who:

Always drive 5-10mph slower than posted speed limit
Stays 5-6 car lengths behind the car in front yet immediately jumps on the brakes if the car in front brakes (not emergency stops)
Brakes like a mile away from the stop light and slowly rolls to a stop
Takes forever to change lanes because they're checking 3 times before getting in

 

[T3C]

not much, They are usually not infront of me for long though

 

[Stretchman]

Ummm well, I don't know if i've run into people like a whole lot. Usually they are senior citizens. I tend to cruise though, not under the speed limit, but right about at it, and it is really annoying when people tail gate rather than just go around.

 

[Billzie7718]

zero .... unless it's my grandmother ... then it's cool.

 

[thestranger]

In the right lane, infinite, in the left lane 0.

Sounds like a good driver to me except for the speed limit part.

Those people aren't cautious, they're stupid.

[jds2006]

[oddyager]

Plenty of patience.

If you can't comfortably drive the speed limit, get the fsck off my road. Driving 10mph under the speed limit is dangerous, and if you don't have the hand-eye coordination to keep up with traffic, I hope something comes along and scares you enough to make you think long and hard about getting behind the wheel tomorrow.

I can honestly say that most of my near-death experiences have involved fossilized geezers not having any clue as to what the hell they're doing. I spare nothing when I roll down my window and verbally castrate them for driving in their late 90's, and I don't care who thinks I'm an ass because of it. I'm doing them and the general public a favor if they never get behind the wheel again.

Your first serious accident will have you singing a different tune.

How much patience do you have for...
Topic Summary: overly-cautious drivers?

More than for under-cautious drivers.

I've been driving since the middle of high school (1996) and have had no accidents since.
Well 1, but that wasn't my fault as the lady ran a red @ 50mph and almost t-boned me.

 

[AdamSnow]

Zero. Those people are in my mirror rather quickly.

I'm gonna go out on a limb here and think that you weren't paying attention if this happened. Mainly because your OP included many standard "good driving" techinques.

 

[JoLLyRoGer]

I've got all the patience it takes. You see, I ride a MC about 88% of the time, so I appreciate someone who looks 3 times before changing lanes. Much better then the a$$holes that are all the time trying to kill me.

Word, in the slow lane I don't care how slow you're going, and everything else on that list is just safe driving which is always a good thing.

If you're driving in the fast lane - you better be going fast though

I was paying attention. I saw her coming at the last minute and braked. Those few thousandth of a seconds probably saved my life as I clipped her rear end instead of her t-boning me.

If you can't drive confidently, get the fvck off the road.

 

[TBone48]

When I'm driving a car, no patience. But when I'm riding my motorcycle, I'm the one who's overly cautious.

 

[CraigRT]

I hate all of those things. not much patience.
