Default What do you spose they're thinking?

This morning, like many others, as I made my way into work I was yet again witness to cager folly. Many of us are guilty of getting froggy with our cages, and sometimes being a little silly there's no denying, but why exactly would you decide:

A) Race with yourself?
B)Try and race with a fellow cager?
C)Haul ass from a stop light, in a 30mph zone, located smack dab in the middle of heavily policed areas?

Like I said in another thread, many of our local PD and LEO's are in unmarked vehicles, as a matter of fact MOST of our force is in unmarked cars.

This special guy, decided to haul ass away from a light, racing himself I suppose, only to have an unmarked car RIGHT BEHIND him. He got pulled over within seconds.

He's not the first idiot I have seen do this, in the same area, and it just makes me laugh. Everyone else is already speeding, but these guys apparently need to "show off". And its ALWAYS males.

Rationale?

What kind of car?

I can count many times when I am bored at a light and just feel like zipping around. Obviously, if I knew the area to be like you mentioned then I probably wouldn't drive like an asshole. But random WOT runs aren't unheard of.

Fox Body Mustang convertible, kinda looked like crap...his exhaust liked to choke me.

In the middle of heavy traffic during morning commute in a 30pmh zone?

I drive an 06 Mustang GT and I dont get that retarded...

We don't have makeup to put on so it's easier for us.

That would be valid if I knew a single female that applied makeup while driving!! I think thats a nasty rumor...but nail polish now...to me thats even dumber than driving like a retard.

If this was an isolated incident, I wouldnt even mention it, but its at least the 3rd one I've seen in as many months!

That seems normal to me. Do I know what they were thinking? Hell no. Am I surprised? No way.

Anybody else notice that women tend to put on their seat belts after they're underway and men tend to do it before even starting the car?

(not all women mind you, but every person I have seen with this habit are female)

I-77 between Charlotte, NC and Lake Norman...every single day I see females applying makeup while driving. My wife gets pizzed about it too. Texting...reading papers...etc.

Ok the males are guilty of the texting and reading as well as shaving too.

I always wonder !!
