They don't have Volvo jokes. Driving a Volvo is a big enough joke as it is. Actually, the newer ones aren't too bad.
I'm sure plenty of people have said "look at that a$$hole in his BMW" as I've driven by. Those are the same people I've said "look at that a$$hole blocking the passing lane..GET OUT OF THE WAY!"
That's when I run them off the road...especially if I know they're old and can't kick my ass.
They could sell a 500HP Volvo and the jackoffs that buy them would still drive them at 55 even though the speed limits were raised 10 years ago. There is nothing worse than an asian female driving a Volvo.
why do you think hummers suck? they are great all terrain vehicles. I don't see the need to drive them on the road but they are great for off road.
I get annoyed when I see a driver in a hummer try to stay in their city street or try to park here. They are gas hogs to an offensive level.
And, mostly everyone knows how much I hate SUVs. Much for the same reasons.
like I said they are a off road vehicle and I don't see why ppl drive them on the road that was not what they were built to do
i'm going to trade in my 4runner and buy me a humvee just to annoy lil'k

Now would I lie to you Slappy? ;-)
It'd work. But, still. You may be allowed exception living on that muddy little island in monsoon territory.
I drive a tractor. Fast. The one thing that annoys the hell out of me is when I see a woman on a tractor. Generally, I'll try to force them off the road with my tractor.
LOL Gus!!! Hey, I drive a tractor and I bet my tractor can kick your tractors butt.
I don't mess with lawn tractors, Montana.
How did you know it was a lawn tractor? hahaha!!!
Statistics
According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), traffic accidents are the leading cause of death for young people between the ages of 16 and 22. In fact, auto accidents account for about one-third of all fatalities in this age group.
Although 16 to 20-year-olds make up only six percent of the total driving population, they comprised 22 percent of those who died in speed-related crashes in 1997. Fatalities aside, the NHTSA asserts that a sixteen-year old driver is twenty times as likely to have a traffic accident as the rest of the driving population.
The incidence of serious injury is also high. Automobile accidents are the leading cause of spinal cord injuries and disabilities among teens. Though these statistics seem frightening, it is important to examine the possible reasons behind the numbers.
Teen drivers are involved in more single-vehicle crashes than other drivers. For instance, they are more apt to crash into trees, barriers, or poles.

If youve got a complaint about drivers start with the group that's worst.
I'd get in to any vehicle with my wife driving before my male friends. She has commuted over 400,000 miles.
My male friends (aged 40- 50) keep up a constant barrage of invectives and comments on all drivers around them. To most American males, driving is a competitive sport that involves such macho games as seeing who can get to the next red light in 37.06 secs. rather than a pussy 37.16 secs. The idea that we're all in this together, so let's drive cooperatively, is out of their realm of experience.
Here in New Brunswick the insurance rates are double for first time boy drivers than they are for girls, so that says something. My son is a responsible driver and he has to pay the price for these other careless drivers.
I think it all has to do with the person I know both reponsable and irresponsable drives of all ages and both sex's
Same here, which is why I think it's very unfare to give a higher rate to a particular sex. That's discrimination.
welllllllllll, maybe not. Insurance is all based on stats.
