Then there are the Lexus drivers that won't say Hi to a fellow Lexus driver. No kindred spirit.

Lexus Test Driver
i will add to the fray and say that around southern california asian mothers in lexus vehicles are some of the worst drivers ever.
but as far as rude and obnoxious driving, i most definitely add to the lifted trucks, or in some cases, groady dropped trucks that are scraping speedbumps.
the honda thing isn't as bad where i live--but there are always a few trying to be cool with their hatchbacks. (or just being cool without a hatchback but an older model while smoking with their friends...)
maybe i'm just lucky, but most drivers near where i live aren't entirely rude or obnoxious (then again, i've gotten used to California drivers...)--usually the ones that annoy are the korean mothers with the white driving gloves and faceshades driving previous and current generation lexus models at 60mph in the fast lane. (or other various asian mothers) some are even bad to the point that MY mother (who is korean...) is frustrated and insults herself in a general way of "i KNEW IT! She HAS to be korean!" while passing a ridiculously slow driver (and she never passes anyone).

Has to be a CA thing! Anybody in the hot states see this at all???Just yesterday, I saw a lady with a seat cushion tied to her window
and yes wearing those wedding gloves that cover your whole arm! Shhhhhht! How in the world can she see???? I wish I had my cameras for you guys to see
This is very dangerous b/c this is totally a blind spot if she needs to look to the left to make any left lane change. A cop needs to pull her over for this. And we get ticketed for front tinted windows???And the tail-gater lifted trucks that wants to own the road

"lifted trucks" must be a CA thing. we don't seem to have this menace on the east coast.
we do have plenty of clueless housewife yenta soccer moms in ****HUGE**** SUVs who insist on holding their cell phone to their ear and yapping away gossip while blindly backing up their monstrosities in the supermarket parking lot and almost hitting you and anything else that gets in their way. when they run over curbs it's hilarious. i agree with the other poster - please raise our gas prices more to further punish these yentas.
however, my original post was referring to people who like to play "jack rabbit" or "speed racer" on the streets. they tailgate, cut you off, cut in front of you, pass into your safety margin (1-2 car lengths) etc. it's like "hey a$$hole, that's how accidents happen!"

Magneto is correct. Mustang V8's ( GT's, Cobras, SVT's etc.....) are the absolute WORST....by a big margin. ( I've commented on this before in CL ). Next comes the 3-series BMW. Next comes the 5-series BMW. Next comes the Camaro SS/Z28. Next comes the Firebird Formula/ Trans-Am. Those, without question, are the top 5 in the American market......don't know about overseas.
Now......before some of you guys start beating me over the head for this, that does NOT mean that there are not some good, courteous drivers in these cars...there are. But those 5 vehicles, in my experience, carry the lion's share of aggressive drivers. About 50% of ALL aggressive driving I see is in V8 Mustangs....and many of the fatal teenage accidents as well.

Chevrolet, Honda, Acura, Nissan. I really think the marketing department should get a raise for the way they drive. They really think they are in BMWs or something. No signal, cut off, rude, don't let you in, slow in the fast lane or speeding for no reason. The worst, I literally have confrontations, mostly Accord owners, especially the new ones.
IMO, BMW drivers are cool, rarely doing something silly and quite frankly I rarely seem them pushed. I find Lexus drivers cool but some won't let you in I noticed. Benz drivers to me stay to themselves.
I do think the new crop of Hyundais has produced aggressive drivers as well. Rarely do I see a Toyota pushed or driven by someone rude.

The reason I don't have a problem with it per-se, its a Mustang, so i know there will be some aggresive and unruly drivers. Goes with the car (and read their forums for 10 seconds)
What I don't get is the 4-cylinder or even V-6 family cars, Impala, Malibu, Altimas, Accords mostly, driven by maniacs. They need to deal with reality. Its not a sporty car.
