What's the deal with this? People are always pissed at me when I'm driving the subaru.

The most common one is when get cut in front of at a four way stop. They then freak out cause I'm starting to enter the intersection like i'm supposed to. *Ba-ching* out comes the bird.

Yesterday for no reason an oncoming driver in the opposing lane on a wide open road just starts screaming at me like I kicked his dog. It's extra funny because no matter how hard people yell I still can't hear a darn word there saying.

I've been thinking it's because my car is white maybe. It's either hard to see; or people think it's a slowmoving fleet car.

What do you guys think?

Sounds like there are alot of freaks in Seattle.

Mark,

I get pretty well ignored though I have had old people yell at me to slow down even though I'd be going under the speed limit. Old people are stupid young people that lived too long.

I think you may need a third party opinion of your driving technique. I'm available for consultation, beginner rally training, and orientation. cost is variable. Available locally in federal way.

I think it might be the driver and not the car.

I'll get some bad looks or fingers flailing my way on occasion...... I however am pretty sure most of the time it's the driver Whether it's me getting pissed at slow people and passing them or not is debatable.....

well in my case it usually because i have one of three brothers mooning someone else in traffic. Ahh, the price we pay for absolute comedy.

Try driving a old suby with North Dakota plates through the Colorado mountains. I'm from CO and enjoy very much driving in the mountains. And even though I was far from holding anybody up (putting the new struts and exhaust to the test), I still got the "F-in flatlander look" every once and awhile. I guess if I was still a full time Coloradoan and got passed in the hills by a 92 Subaru with ND plates and no hubcaps, I'd be a bit miffed too .

I get lots of dirty looks from old fogeys whenever I drive through a neighborhood, even though I'm doing 5 over at the most (probably jealous ) ...

This might have something to do with it too
