Yes, in this area, many people who drive Teslas tend to be environmentalists, are not what we would call auto-enthusiasts or speed-enthusiasts, and who are generally not attracted to aggressive driving....certainly not like a lot of Mustang or BMW 3-series jocks.

I think a lot of people have different definitions of bad behavior. For example, I typically run away at stoplights simply because I can and it's very easy to do. I don't cut anyone off and there is plenty of space in front of me so I'm just having fun with my car. I've had people catch up at the next light and look offended. I also get people mad at me when I pass them on the right and get in front of them when they are left lane hogging. Again, I don't cut anyone off but it offends them for some reason and they speed up and start tailgating a bit. BMW drivers like to have fun and they might drive spiritedly but may be interpreted as being jerks.

The worst drivers are Buckeyes (Ohio drivers). When out of state, they stay in the left lane and will not move into a slower lane to allow other traffic to pass.

BMW 3-series jocks are in a distant second-place....although there are indeed some careful Mustang jocks (they're not all a bunch of hooligans), in general, the Mustang pilots, particularly with the V8s, take first place when it comes to thumbing one's nose at the laws of physics.

Ohio is tough on speeding....they don't play games. In fact, some of their small towns have been written up for questionable, illegal, or harassing tactics.

Lexus RX owners are easily the worst I’ve ever seen. I can’t count how many times I’ve almost been hit by one or witnessed reckless driving in them. I’m usually not a big critic of other drivers but those cars attract the worst drivers.

I see tons of RX’s as I live by the only Lexus dealership in my city, as well as I also work for that same dealership. I deal with many RX owners every day and the ridiculous stories customers tell me is crazy. Many people have hit cars while parking or been in accidents, despite all of the safety systems that RX’s have now. When I see them on the road they’re swerving, running red lights, running stop signs, rear ending people, weaving in and out of traffic, and cutting people off.

I had a customer who wanted to test out her Pre-Collision System in her new RX. She tried to run over some children in her neighborhood and was mad when the car didn’t stop itself. She came came back and complained to us about it a few days later.

As i was defending 3 series drivers earlier, a rude 340 driver was tailgating me the whole time on the highway.

I really wanted to smoke him but I was in my minivan

I have yet to see a Tesla driver even do that! I don’t have a problem with what you are doing and I think it would be pretty cool to see it. I think if it was a loud car doing what you do it may get a dirty look. I see a lot of Charger/Challengers doing it but it probably looks worse because of how loud they can be.

That's too bad. I runaway from everyone at lights at will. The electric instantaneous torque is unbelievable.

my man... you know what's up lol

they're definitely the biggest menaces on the road, if I had a dash cam for the past 10 years I'd have a great RX drivers compilation by now (after only a few weeks lets be honest)

Audi A4 owners are my arch nemesis on the road. But for some reason I had the most people try to street race me in A4's. Then Bmw 3 series owners, then c300 & c43 people. In that order.

You're such a damn buzz kill!!!

While I don't think they are the worst (also no longer own one), Maxima drivers are far from good. Seems like I get cutoff by one every other day. No signal, doesn't want you to merge, etc etc.

Prius, in my area is pretty much the worst.

There are only two sweeping generalizations that hold true.

The first is that if there is one thing that unites all of us, it's that every single person considers themselves to be a better than average driver.

The second was George Carlin's - anyone driving slower than you is an idiot, and anyone driving faster than you is a maniac.

I am back to Prius drivers. Today they were terrible.

Plus, some guy in a PT Cruiser. This guy was older than dust and man he needed to have a license review.

The other class today was all the people with bike racks with bikes on them. It seemed like everyone of them had inhaled some sort of magic plant before they hit the road this morning.
