Road Rage on the Onramp

[Shiifty]

Was driving on the highway, and a bunch of cars are merging from the onramp to the highway. This one old guy does it properly, speeds up on the ramp, then tries to merge over, but some punk right behind him on the ramp, merged quickly and sped up to block him from getting on. The punk then proceeded to flip off the old guy and yell and scream. :lol:

I was driving right beside them at this point, and laughed. Punk looks over and sees me laughing, then goes behind me and over to the fast lane and takes off.

Punk was in the wrong big time ... Hopefully he feels ******** because I was laughing ...

[steve.m]

good for him. I too hope he feels embarased and ashamed for what he did. what a goof.

[UrbanPoet]

very dangerous too :|

[Jazzhound]

Anytime some punk flies up behind me on the highway, I do one of two things:

1. Turn on the windshiled washers for about 20 seconds....much of it blows over my car onto his winshiled , but it dries immediately so he has to use the wipers himself. Once I see his wipers on, i litely tap the brakes. When the washer fluid in spraying on his windshield and he sees my brake lights, its not clear at that moment if I am braking or not, so generally they slam on the brakes. My cost? about 30cents worth of WW fluid.

OR

2. I drop a roll of pennies out the winodw. The paper roll explodes on impact and sends a shower of pennies in his direction. Hehe, when u hear stuff hitting your car, you slow down. When its 50 pennies, they slam on the brakes! Thats a really good one....and where's the eveidence? My cost? 50 cents.

Sometimes, if they are really deserving, I drop the pennies right after I see them put their wipers on.

By the way, a really great way to flip someone off is to put your finger up either at the drivers side window or extending your arm across the seat and flipping it to the right wide window.
The key is, stare straight ahead. Do NOT look at them.

There's nothing more upsetting to the person you are flipping off, than for you to not even have the decency to look at them while they yell, scream, rant and make similar gestures in your direction, in response tour flipping the, off.
"How can I tell you that you're an a**hole if you won't look at me!!!"
Its fkucing hilarious. My cousin taught me that when I was 17. Try it, you'll like it.

:D :D :D


Get off the road, you maniac. That's how a joke can turn into a tragic accident. What a fool!

Well I'm sure your Raybans would protect you.

Do you have a sickness that forces you to be a prick? I've noticed the comments you made in Atomic Fire's thread about the employee quitting.

There's nothing commendable about his attitude; two wrongs do not make a right. You're not teaching someone a lesson; it's more likely a stunt like that will cause a major road accident. May be you condone, or worse, endorse his actions, but then again, I would expect nothing less from the likes of you.

AF is a liar - he lies and I have contradictory posts to establish that fact - seems like you did not notice other RFD members agree with me.

And personal attacks are not allowed here. Mic2000 a "maniac"? Me a "prick and sick"? What happened to your eloquent style of fictional writing? See below :lol:

I'm not all together certain if what I'm about to ask is consonant with RFD guidelines, but here goes.

I take the TTC bus to and from work every day; and today was rather amusing (among other things). I caught a girl nonchalantly gazing at me, hoping I'd reciprocate by smiling or giving her a look back. My sight was on her all that time, but unfortunately for her, I had my Ray-Bans on so she could not be sure. Cutting to the chase -- although she was incredibly attractive, I would wager she was no more than 17 or 18; and I would say that's generous already.

So the question is, do you older gents, possibly even those with kids that age, abstain from looking? Frankly, I would be quite shocked if the majority would deny themselves this harmless pleasure. I personally do not feel looking is at all transgressing; it is a natural impulse to look at beautiful things.

Please share your thoughts, and remember to keep this congenial. I am not a child molestor, pedophile, etc.

:evil:

orr.. you can always leave a bunch of newspaper in your trunk.
drive in front of em...
pull your trunk latch so your trunk opens then all the news papers fly onto the other car obstrcuting their view.
they cant see.. .they'll swirve onto traffic and die. :twisted:

[TrEvOrLiCioUs]

Well the old man could have been in the wrong for all you know, you dont know what whole scenerio.

I hate people who go really really slow on the onramps, and then dont speed up and try to merge into traffic at 60 km/h.

THAT is freaking DANGEROUS when cars are going 100+. and its like my huges pet peve on the highway. People like that should be shot, and me the poor sole behind them have to wait patiently bcus its even more dangerous to try and change lanes, bcus of them ur going 60 km/h and cars are fast approaching.

As for tailgaters I just move outa the way, not worth the hassel

i know you are joking, but fyi, anything that falls off your vehicle you are responsible for. if you didn't clear off the snow on the roof of your car, for example, and it all slid off the side and caused an accident behind you, you would be held liable. same goes for an unsecured load off the back of a pickup, for example. so unloading newspapers would be a pretty bad idea, imho.

[Hurk]

Personally, if someone isn't up to speed on the on ramp, I hate it. If they don't get up to speed fast enough, I'll pass em, unless the lane will cut out, then I'll try to merge in the fast lane given there are no oncoming cars.

I hate old people's driving style. They shouldn't be on the road most of the time, and going slow on the 401 causes more accidents than going fast.

What are you kidding me? That's an incredibly stupid thing to do.

Any idea what a roll of pennies will do to a windsheild at 120 km/h? Or what potential for damager there is as pennies explote and then hit a car moving that fast?

That's a great way to get someone to follow you and then get your ass kicked.

Have some brains and don't throw metal objects out your window at highway speeds.

omg a roll of pennies....couldnt that go thru the windshield??? if its bound tight and doesnt shatter??? :confused:

[Carnage]

I'd say it would easilly go right through a windwhield.

And even if it does shatter how do you know that the pennies would only hit the guy behind you? They could go in any direction, or even skip over into oncoming traffic.

[Spazmogen]

As a police dispatcher, I'm sensing job security in this thread...

[Degenerate]

He wasn't referring to chucking a roll of pennies out the window onto the other car. He meant dumping the pennies out of the car onto the ground and have a ton of pennies hitting off the car.

[Carnage]

I know what he said.

He said that he' throw it out the window onto the ground, and have it explode on the ground and make the pennies hit the car.

But it doesn't change the fact that it's a stupid thing to do. Think the guy is going to like having pennies hitting his car at that speed and causing paint scratches, small dents, maybe even a cracked winshield if he's unlucky. Though there would still be an outside chance that the roll wouldn't shatter and would bounce up. And the pennies could very well scatter in all directions affecting many other people.

You don't have to be that smart to realize that throwing a roll of pennies out your window on the highway is very stupid.

dude you really need help.
good thing I dont live in Burlington

[callous]

Throw a whole roll of pennies out of your window on the highway.. That guy is totally brain-dead.

Image a single one of those pennies nailing a motorcyclist at 100km/hour or worse. he goes down, breaks his neck, guess who's going to jail. DUH. Wake up you ficking idiot.

[seefuthead]

am i th eonly one who notices that this guy probably hasnt even dont anything he just mentioned but just heard it from someone else who hasnt even done it either who happen to hear it from ANOTHER person who hasnt done it either ? this guys probably a nerd who cant even drive yet. haha

[mrmoe]

Well i would just throw out all my empty roll up the win cups.

hahaha

Actually the old man was doing it right, was up to speed, was about to merge right behind another car when the punk roared up. For al I know the old guy could have cut him off getting onto the onramp, but still, that's no excuse to be an ass.

I know what you mean about mergers at 60-80 km/hr ... They're nuts and don't belong on the highway. Actually there are a ton of drivers who don't belong on the roads period ... but that's another thread. :D

old guys always take the wrap

[Nyte]

It is still a very bad idea, but one mistake you are all making is that the pennies would be hitting the other car at 120km/h. But if you toss it out of the car at 120km/h, then the pennies are also going at 120km/h. So its similar to someone tossing a pack of pennies into a car at a parking lot. So no, the windshield would probably not break.

It's not as simple as that.

When you first throw it yes the pennies would be going that speed. But if they shatter, then some of those pennies will be reversing direction when they skip.

So now you have some pennies going a considerable speed toward a car doing 120 km/h, which just magnifies the impact. That alone probably won't break the windsheild, but it could definetly put a good size crack in the windshield.

I'd hate to be a motorcyclist following the penny parade! Ouch that's gonna hurt..

im gona start driving with my piggy bank glued to my hood

Not the slightest bit funny.

[NDman]

pennies are small. they won't break a windshield. Nor would they knock someone off their motorbike.

Joking as you might be on the penny trick. But a pebble smaller than a penny can cause cracks on the windshield. So stop advocating your "joke method"

[aquariaguy]

You're an idiot. Bad karma is gonna get you one day, so you better watch out. Just wait till you're following a gravel truck and he hits a bump and you're gonna get owned.

Wow - you guys are really taking me seriously...

This is a hoot!

I didn't. :)

[AudiDude]

I know a guy who unleashed a large bag of potato chips on the highway. It was kind of like driving through a meteor shower.

[kornstar369]

how about peeing out the window?

[webdoctors]

u guys r dumb, U honestly think he drives around wid a stack of rolls of pennies in the handrest just in case someone behind him pisses him off?!

obviously he's joking.

here's a suggestion, next tyme a punk in the rear pisses u off, shoot out his tires or throw bent nails in his direction. :twisted:

now everyone will flame me, what if the car spins outta control and hits another car from the burst tire, THINK OF THE CHILDREN!!

Wow... what a dumbass

[Carnage]

Not really that funny.

Simply because some dumbass might take your seriously and actually try that.

I know once years back some freinds and I were sitting at a tim hortons late at night talking. I made a joke about getting some stale timbits so that we could toss them out of the window on the 401. Couple of my freinds thought it was a great idea and jumped up to go buy some. I had to stop them and tell them I was just joking.

[mlc2000]

how about peeing out the window?

Male or Female?

[kornstar369]

[mlc2000]

Hey- I deleted my posts...don't need anyone believing that horse crap about the pennies. Can't believe how many people took the ball and ran.

Anyone who knows me , knows this dutchman is too cheap to toss a roll of pennies!

Be safe everyone!

Anywho, this whole thread reminds me of the Malibu commercial with the dude on the bicycle saying "It's total road rage!"
