Tailgating

Doesn't happen in my wife's Expedition, nor my previous cars: Forester, EVO, WRX, IS300, etc. I don't even get this kind of hate riding my motorcycles. The only other car I recall this happening with, was with my 1981 Datsun 210 SL "fastback" in dessert yellow.

I mean... Corollas and Kias bust a nut to pass.

Why all the hate on the Yaris?

Call me a jerk/ asshole or whatever you want but when that happens to me a slam on my brakes causing them to get pissed or to back da fuck up

BTW We had this discussion so many times.

^What he said. And in LA you would also add pitch-black sunglasses and the bird to the mix. That's the only way people learn around here...
