Well i remember this one time on my way to Speedelement to get my car dropped i "played" on the freeway with an evo8 in what i would call medium traffic (cars in each lane some going slow others going fast but enough room for cars to weave in and out of) and i think we did that for maybe 3-4 miles and then he had to go but we both gave each other a thumbs up. Only thing was that this girl in a red either rx-8 or integra on the LEFT hand lane wouldn't let me pass her so i can get going...........

heh, i'll admit that i do, but only in what i said in my other comments, only to people who drive stupid against me. otherwise, i'd switch lanes before i get anywhere near a car.

Did he have high beams on too? People in Mid-Cal are notorious for doing that, must be all blind if they cant see w/ regular headlights >_>

Sorry but I have to admit that I've done both of what Kioshi and sherryberry have talked about. Yea shame on me but I haven't driven for two weeks so that's good for the community ><

shoot, if i get high-beamed, or even think i am (when the freakin' light is high enough that it bounces off my rear view mirror and into my eyes), i'll let them pass me up, then i'll go right behind them and start high beaming them.

Yea I mean thats "ok" in my book, in my opinion. If theres still distance once you weave in and out of lanes between cars, thats kool. Never do it on rainy days, even some of my friend speeders say its insane on rainy days~

Against an EVO8? lol just weaving in n out or seeing who can break out of the traffic first lol.

Should've flashed high beams at her in the red car....or flirt w/ her :p

haha she didn't look that great (in my opinion) yea it was a black evo 8 hehe i think we were seeing who could break out of traffic first and i guess you could say i "won" cuz i lost him for a while then slowed down and then he had to go. iono but he seemed like a good guy. i think he was a caucasian guy with some sporty sunglasses lol iono but it's a custom or habit for my friends and i to give a thumbs up to those we "play" with on the freeway weather we win or lose.

I remember when I got in to my first accident ever and i've had a few where they weren't serious.. I was parked in the school parking lot and some guy decided to bump my butt. I was pissed cuz I came out to look at the damages and the guy sat in his car laughin his ass off. I wish I could have gotten his insurance info but there weren't any damages and all the other people waiting to get out of the parking lot was tellin me to go. Oh how i hate teenagers but i'm just glad that he wasn't coming at me at a MUCH faster speed.. I can see how much worse that would've been.

only accident i've been in involved my flipping my tc due to three consecutive potholes at a turn. obviously i was playing dont know how fast i was going but i do know that i spun out pretty badly then smacked my rear right tire and axle on the curb causing me to flip but i landed right side up so that was good. luckily no1 was around me and all i left with was a scratch on the hand. for pictures of my tc check out www.myspace.com/yrsdrgn and no my default picture isn't due to that car crash it was a bike accident =P

haha nice. I should consider doing that Kaotic, going slower when people tailgate me and my Yaris. I cant do what I use to in my Mitsubishi Mirage....(let them pass then slam the gas to show them I too can speed and not let them escape slower cars in front of them).

Yepp, but i think it plays out even since you drive a sedan Kaotic. It's weird and funny high beaming someone w/ a hamster hatchback and then moments later getting high beamed by that same little hamster you were once doing it to.

Aside from all that, getting even and whatnot....you guys all do flip them off eventually right? haha.

People should also use their blinkers when in close lane changing incidents, ie to merge or take an exit. Many accidents and deaths happen because of it :(

haha, well, that's being courteous to other drivers, although, myself, i don't do any "playtime".

hahaha, i mouth out/say the words to them. show them my facial expression. lol...

i'll use my turn signals when there are cars near me, otherwise, if it doesn't seem like they're racing on, i won't use my signals.

[sherryberry]

i give an evil glare lol
