The Curse Strikes Back - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

i was driving down the road doing about 38-39mph, and this dude in a taurus was swerving all over the place and speeding like crazy. he tries to go around me and hits me with his driver side bumper. no info yet from insurance (mine or his), and no estimate. but i've a feeling i'm gonna need a new bumper and possible new exhaust tips. nowhere near as bad as last time, but i'm still sore.

I'll never understand the "I'm in a race with all the people!" attitude. Because racecar? Not in a taurus..

But good luck with the insurance side of things as well as getting your car back to shape

Love the vanity, btw

taurus, prius and ford rangers...the 3 vehicles I see while driving that are more often than not speeding/driving hazardously or like complete a-holes.

This sucks.

I swear Prius owners are some of the fastest speeders. I've encounter many Prius riding my *ss while dd to/from work. They'll ride my *ss at 75 on a 65. Sped up and they still ride my ass at 85+ and I'm on my V6 Accord..

It's the exact opposite down here in Houston, and even worse in Austin. Prius drivers seem to consistently drive 5-10 mph under the speed limit in the left lane. Then they look at you like you're the a**hole when you pass them on the right, because they're "saving the world" with their ridiculous car.

I hate the Prius. In my experience, most of the people driving them are pretentious a**holes. (That's my gross generalization for the day.)
