Thats why I don't want a loud car. Can't really blame them. You're annoying them.

I used to get that all the time because my cars got attention visually. I've had retards (including cops) motion angrily for me to slow down when I was going under the speed limit. Makes you want to drive into them. See? You only broke both your fucking legs—if I'd been speeding, you'd be a bloody corpse 150 feet down the road. Maybe if you have so much trouble gauging relative velocities, you shouldn't be driving, but I guess those broken legs will take care of that for a while.

I hate it when people pass me and I am doing 20km over the speed limit. Then they passed me looking so pissed is there something they really don't like about my car that makes them want to pass??!! Exhaust is normal, I still have my converters ;) bup!

I used to be that with with larger vehicles (read: vans, SUVs, semis. boxtrucks etc. ) Didnt matter how fast or slow they where driving I couldnt handle being behind them and would go to great lengths to pass them.

Then I got a Dodge van 4x4, A real van. not a goddamn "Caravan". Damm think sat like 2 foot of the ground and hand a bolt upright seating position with your feet a good 12-18 inches above the frame. Suddenly I only had a problem with semis. After a shot while I figured out that my issue the whole time was that large vehicles blocked my line of sight. No idea whats commind down the road in your direction or wich way the road was going when 80% of your field of vision was obscured by some lard ass Preppy in a Suburbans rear bumper.

Exactly what happens to me. This sounds weird but I feel 'trapped' when I'm behind a car, even if they are going at a decent speed. I like being out in front because I can set the pace, and don't have to worry about rear-ending anyone.

The only gripe about my Leggy is that since it sits low to the ground (Stock height), everybodys headlights blind me.

Back in the days I had a catback on my car and was driving down the street. Some woman told me to slow down, when I was doing 20 in first or second gear (can't remember and don't care) in a residential. I did a u-turn and yelled out of the car, asking her why she told me to slow down. She told me it sounded like I was going fast. I told her I was only going 20, and the limit was 25, she said whatever and told me to slow down again. I drove off.

Back when my wastegate was an open dump, I'd can it when people looked at me funny. When the wastegate opened, they'd cringe in the pain of their ears.
