What is the rudest thing you have seen while driving?

[Jubbie]

Sorry, but I am a bit naive as I am new to INGO. What is the INGO salute?

I would tell you, but then it wouldn't be a secret. How's this, while driving today cut somebody off then slam on the brakes. You'll know the salute when you see it. Just give it right back with a smile & a nod, then post on here about your experience to find out which INGO member you exchanged pleasantries with.

(this would be in some shade of purple, but I'd probably get the shade wrong, g/f says I'm colorblind)

My driving story has a rude and a cool component. Rude part: Wife and I were driving where the road narrows, and some jerk in a beater tries to pass us and runs us off the road. The light less than a block ahead was red!! Cool part: We arrive in the lane next to the jerk just a foot or so back. We both had our windows down, so I very loudly, and sarcastically said "Look hon, he's ahead." To my delight and amazement, the wife says even louder " Yeah, a d##k head!! I love my wife.

My wife and i were heading west on 54 in Linton following what must have been a 90 year old woman. When she misses her turn onto 59 then stops in the middle of 54 to look around. Well, I gave her a couple of honks on the horn, just to let her know that she was stopping traffic in the middle of the hiway. Then she remains stopped long enough to turn, look back at me and give me the big middle finger. If it had been anybody else I would have been more than a little upset but, all i could do was laugh my butt off and move on...

When I was young and single. I was driving down I-69 and a cute girl from TX pulled up along side me and motioned for me to pull over. I thought at the time that this was wild so I pulled over trying to be cool. She walked up and said, "hey do you have any pot?" When I told her no, she said ok and drove off. Talk about rude! So much for being a cool dude.

Yeah.
Some of those female Troopers are real cute. Especially in plain clothes
And those confiscated vehicles do come in handy.

It's an old time way of saying "Gee thanks for the tip sonny."

He didn't really care about the answer, he was just trying to get his 51 posts, which he did and he hasn't posted anywhere but the classifieds since.

That is an endless list, My all time favorite is the contradictions, Someone who is in an obvious rush & irritated and thinks the throttle is the answer risking their life and everyone around them simply because they cannot manage "time" YET, If you happen to cross paths with this person they "suddenly have time" to stop a kick your azz.

Consider that my 3/4 ton truck has 7 1/2 inch lift which puts the headlights right at other driver's eyes. People consitantly flash their brights thinking I have my brights on, that is until I flash my brights. I had this happen on 3rd street in Terre Haute a car flashed it's brights, I flashed mine, this must have really ticked them off. So I was turning on I70 when this blue nissian car decides to follow me then cut me off and brake on the interstate.

I didn't loose my cool just changed lanes and let the diesel burn made it to walmart in record time. We were then coming out of the walmart parking lot and there was that blue nissian pulling out of Sonic, I stopped at a red light and nissian pulled up on the right side since I was in the left lane which was also my wifes side. Two young girls started cussing us up and down, my wife asked her what she said, the girl is now leaning out of the car yelling when my wife grabs a partily melted Wendys frosty and tosses it out the window hitting the girl directly in the face/neck area, the girls friend tried to return fire when she squeezed her drink too hard and broke her cup leaving the contents of the drink on her lap. I quickly drove home!

BTW I don't condone the wasting of frosties!

The worst i have seen is a idiot pull out of blockbuster video and join a funeral on the road so they wouldn't have to stop at red lights.

One time, someone did not return my Jeep wave

I have seen more women flashing than i can count on both my fingers and toes.

Then unfortunately i see stuff i dont wanna see too.

Just today a seen a guy with his pants around his knee's driving down the interstate and "enjoying" himself.

 

[BSUrugger]

I saw a guy with a Ferrari. He had it painted flat black...no that's just wrong!

If this was in Indiana I know that Ferrari, I worked on it, that's how it came from the factory and the young kid driving it, just bought it cash from someone in Florida and took it to "Jiffy-Lube" for a service

Able-bodied people parking in handicapped spots just because they have a sticker on their car **** me off to no end.

If I was a more vengeful person, I'd key every single one of their cars.

Yep, it sure was in Indiana. Downtown Indianapolis as a matter of fact. I guess the color doesn't matter too much, a Ferrari is a Ferrari right??

I believe the young crowd refers to flat black as "murdered out".

 

[38special]

For me, somebody actually mooned me! I thought that was only in the movies.

That was you?

Sorry.

I know this feeling all too well. I see able-bodied people park in the handicap spot all the time at my job and I so badly want to say something to them. I think one time one of them ticked me off and I noticed she was in the space, so I kindly told her when she came up to pay for her stuff that her being a blond doesn't count as a handicap.

Its more fun to pop a broken off tire gauge or tire deflators on two of their tires. It will cause more hassle than calling insurance and causing rates to go up for everyone else, and no real damage is done
