Just for point of reference I accumulated 600 pts on the 3 mile commute in, including 1 combo for the bonus. I don't text in the car, because that's really irresponsible.

I've noticed that the M3's turn signal is not always the easiest to engage

675 points in one maneuver today.

Was 4th car in line behind another asshat driving between 35 and 45 mph in a 55. Line was about 20 cars long. I lost it and passed all four at once. Of course I used the single digit salute as my turn signal when I returned to the lane.

F the anger management course.

My personal best is 825 points for driving 3 times faster than I can handle while reversing on a shoulder to a exit I missed.

In an old issue of Topgear magazine they have all the car details in the back, with a short summary for each model

X5
Plus - Best in class
Minus - arrogance comes as standard

Still chuckle about that comment every time I see one...
M3's dont have that problem!

All the proper d*ckheads in NZ drive RS4's now anyhow. :-) ....(and now I've, by default become one, by saying that!)

Women in SUVs gets my vote as the worst, most inattentive, most distracted, and rudest drivers.

Most of the left lane cloggers are women. On a 1400 mile road trip from Miami to Killeen, TX, out of 40 left lane hogs, 37 of them were women. Most of the ones that clog the left lane here in TX are women. I would guess that over 50% are on a cell phone.

Let's not get into the random lane changes, pointless hard braking, and general not giving a crap about anyone else.

Sexist? Maybe but my daily observations prove my "sexist" view correct most of the time.

The ones that I've noticed to be some of the most dangerous drivers are mid-sized, Japanese, economy sedans with under 30 year olds driving i.e. Camry, Altima, Maxima, etc

No one on the road has ever tried soooo hard to get me to race them than mid-sized eco sedans.

You mean massive body roll, a steering system that is not connected to the front wheels, and the engine note played through the speaker system?!?!?!?!

The worst drivers are not belonging to a certain brand but a certain type of vehicle. The PICK UP TRUCK.

Vette drivers are the worst at the track. Every time at the track, I trail a vette for at least 1 or 2 laps during the day.
