I hate kid drivers - Page 3 - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

By contrast, there's a guy at my office, mid to late 20s, that drives a 2004 Corvette. He's always shown my courtesy in the parking lot, often times giving me right of way when we're getting ready to exit. I've never heard him rev over 3k nor have I ever seen him do any sort of hooning. It's always refreshing to see younger, mature drivers even if they're rolling around in sports cars.

I know when I was teenager, I'd have my occasional bouts of stupidity, but most people grow out of that. It worries me when I see 30-40 year olds acting like douchewads (particularly in Temecula, CA): cutting through lanes without signalling, closing gaps when people are trying to merge, excessive tailgaiting.

Sometimes I wish we had the technology to transmit messages through peoples stereos just so we could tell them off.

6.5/10 on rant scale...

I would have scored it higher if you used more CAPS.

My fantasy is to have all cars equipped with one surface-to-surface missile. Everyone would be allowed one free shot. Most people probably would become more polite and thoughtful drivers, don't you think?. Of course there would be the unbearable temptation to use the "final option" every time some turd decides to drive 15 mph under the speed limit in the left lane. (Especially if they are in a Prius.)

I would already be toast.

Should have tried saving it by doing a "stare and drive".

But he was in sport mode!!!

Our cars attract all types...
It is all part of driving a nice car.

It could be worse.

The last girl that was in my car freaked out over me changing gears. She had no idea what I was doing and was completely unaware that manual cars existed...

This car is affordable, my cousins' son who just turned 16 is able to afford an FRS. If the was around 35K+ then you would see more mid to late 20s DBags driving instead.

How about the 35-50 year old douchebags that see a younger person, mid 20's, driving a nice car or anyone in a sports car for that matter of fact and do the same stuff. If anyone wants to really find douchebags and idiotic drivers, ride a motorcycle.

Douchebag drivers come in all ages.

I put 6000 dollars down and I pay half of the payment which is 440 a month I think. My grandfather took care of the tags and tax of the vehicle. My dad takes care of the insurance. So I do contribute to the car and I work hard for my money just like most of you.
