Default Cars of the most Obnoxious Rude Drivers

-

Do you find that drivers of certain cars are typically more obnoxious, aggressive and rude than your average driver?

My votes:

1. VW Jetta or Passat
2. BMW 3-Series
3. Audi TT or A4/A6

Number 1 and number 2 are very true in Mexico and sometimes number 3.

Definitely the 3-Series. One time I was cruising at 80-85mph in the left lane at night with pretty light traffic when a 3-Series suddenly ran up to me and started tailgating me. Not finding me yielding, he flashed his high beams for several times and then changed lanes and took me over and cut me right off. What an a-hole.

Pick up trucks definitely.

Mustang's, Hondas.

Surprisingly around here the EVO and STI guys love to right and middle lane it. They arent crazy drivers here. Probably because they know the cops are already looking for them.

Some of the Maxima drivers are pretty bad too.

I think these smacked asses start out as VW owners and eventually graduate to BMW/Audi.

Well, not everyone. Some people know how to drive while talking. But most are a pain in the rear. They talk and lose all driving consciousness...often going too slow to compensate for being distracted. I hate it.
