hi...just got my ride 2 months back. hm...noticed that the 8 is quite a target for a lot of cars. quite irritated with these people...I mean granted that the 8 is really not as fast as the wrx, evos and turbocharged civics...so why cant people leave us alone?
...haha also noticed that a lot of Lexus RX300's like to tailgate me.
Care to share any of your on-the-road experiences?

One thing I've learned, when you're on the front row of the traffic lights, and happen to have cars like the sti or evos or especially civics beside you, and you're in no mood to race, just don't look at them. Normally, they'll take that eye contact as an invitation to race. So, just ignore who's around and drives off normally, once they step on the gas, and realize no one is racing them, they will just revert back to normal crusing too.

Those are immature bengs.... Many of them upgrade everything to be faster except their skills and brakes. Don't be tempted to race with them. If they go on and kill someone, I guess you have to take partial responsibility too...

Personally, I keep getting tailgated by corollas & sunnys... cars that "cannot make it" but like to drive fast and push others. Maybe there's just so many damn corollas and sunnys around!!! :mad:

Of coz I couldn't care less. If I can filter out of their way, I'll let them speed off to their next speeding fine :p

Hi Guys
2day while i was on my way back on PIE toward jurong saw a black RX8 tail gateing a black Euro R. The RX8 was trying to overtake the Euro R from the left . Then just as the 8 come out from behind to overtake. The Euro pull him away and 2 of them continue racing ahead untill i couldnt see them. Wha! they are fast car men! I think that guy on the RX8 wasnt flooring the paddle.

Oops....Guess i fall in the later category then?..having posted in a chow ah beng manner...HAHA.

Ok, i am cool-headed too u know. Realli... Dont race with them its not worth it!
Let them get pulled over by TP and hope they learn their well deserved lessons ya....As
u drive pass..........Dont be childish and jeer at them or show em the funky chicken or u r no better off....We should actually emphatise with em and sincerely hope they grow out of this immature behaviour and as you drive past, try to make eye contact with the driver and console him with a friendly gesture-------------> STILL THE MIDDLE FINGER!!!

Cheers its the weekend, lighten up :D

Neon, not bad ah... one day can give 3 middle fingers. Just be careful the TP doesn't see you giving the middle finger, else he might think you are giving it to him and come after you instead! :p

Isn't it illegal to give a middle finger here?

Manwe
10-09-2004, 09:49 AM
Hmmm what offence can he gives you for middle finger? The closest I can think of is driving without reasonable consideration to others...hahaha.... That is 9 pts my bro...

sgrenesis
10-09-2004, 09:58 AM
But that is unless the TP sees it right, dont think the driver can also do much.

:confused: How is that "illegal"? Uncle can fine you for it? Witnesses? Heck, usually it just pisses people off...which is the intended result :eek:

Manwe
10-09-2004, 10:06 AM
I was just kidding about the 9 points.... no traffic offence will fit it... but can charge you for public nuisance though.... he can also file civil charge for intimidation.... but then...who would bother with such things....

Genesis
10-09-2004, 10:08 AM
Good point bro, do people actually charge for such "offenses"? Anyone have experience with this?

Manwe
10-09-2004, 10:11 AM
If the person really hates you or is a lawyer... maybe so....

But police would normally let you off with warning... unless you are persistently annoying...

Genesis
10-09-2004, 10:14 AM
I see...Man I know some people who would fall into the "persistently annoying" group....yellow tops for instance?

sgrenesis
10-09-2004, 10:25 AM
thats too much of a hassle to file a case for this matter and there are even no witnesses, what could possibly be done.

Hi all! As regards the finger; yes there have been people charged & convicted for this. Usually a fine (rude gesture). Unless it's a lady - then it depends on your luck. If u unlucky, it's insulting her modesty. If u lucky, she'll return the greeting. If u REALLY lucky, she'll wanna see yours! Ha ha...

there was an article a few years back that a person can be fined up to $5000.

So its $15K for me already....lala

so that would mean that only the cops can catch you! so still nothing much can be done but just only depends on your luck.

To be jio or not actually depends on the driver's look and behaviour.
Like Neon, others will definitely jio him. Because of his siah lan face and fxxxing beng attitude. Luckily i know him. If not , when i see him i ll sure jio him or perhaps even whack him. Right Neon?????

Hi guys, in Italy tailgate is normal, the only thing is that sometime you are at 200 and over and somebody comes at few inches from your back charging and flashing. when I am back in Italy and I am in this sort of situation, while keeping my right foot down, I gently touch the brake pedal with my left foot, the guy will see the red lights coming up, he will get soooooo scared that he will brake so hard that his eyes will pop out ....
hehehehe :D :D :D

sgrenesis
10-15-2004, 11:30 AM
wouldnt that make your car spin if you were to brake just a little bit harder. think its too dangerous doin both at the same time.

sqflyer
10-15-2004, 01:11 PM
It shouldn't spin if you step VERY gently. However, those who are used to driving manual cars tend to step hard with their left feet due to muscle memory from stepping on the clutch pedal.
