I don't have a problem with any make or model of car but i do have more of a pet peeve, I cant stand the third stop lights that blink. that freaking drives me up the wall. I feel like going up th the driver and saying no shit i see your slowing down. even though i know its not really the owners fault, because their car just came like that. I think its mainly on some Chrysler products. This is out of character for me because in general nothing bothers me. does this drive any one else crazy?
I haven't seen that before.....the 3rd light blinks??? while the other two don't?? that's weird. I really think you need to take a pill though Mike....I mean it's just a blinking light for crissakes.

That shit is annoying... can't always tell if they're braking or tapping the brakes in the daytime.

dude, where have you been? I think you need to lay off the pills you have really never seen this? although I have never heard the word crissakes. I dont let it ruin my whole day but it it the only thing I can think of that annoys me about other cars. heres some links on it
and mini vans of any type. they seem to think they can pull out into traffic whenever they feel and drive whatever speed they like. they also don't differentiate between the fast and slow lanes on the highway.
+1, this mini van really pissed me off today. i was driving down a mountain (this is where the benefits of driving my G instead of renting a prius really come into play) and this guy in a mini van is in the fast lane going way too slow and slamming on his brakes through every curve. i couldnt get past him because there was too much traffic in the other lanes. then when traffic clears up at the bottom of the mtn, he speeds way the f*** up so i cant pass him. wtf?

yep i hate those too. i've seen them on chrysler products for a couple of years now. i am pretty sure it's optional since not many have it... which means it IS the owner's fault. it's annoying as shit, the only good thing is since it's blinking all the damn time hopefully it will make the bulb go out faster.
VW has a better alternative on the new passat, if you slam on the brakes (not just regular stopping/slowing down) the hazards will come on until you're stopped.

that would explain why you dont see it often, but that will make it that much more annoying just knowing that it basically means that the owner is saying that they think everyone is an idiot and doesnt know when to slow down. that thing you said about VW is a great idea. it makes total sense.

SO uhmmm, Mike....about those meds??
I honestly can't ever recall seeing any of those...maybe all the nerd drivers are just back east or something.
PS. crissakes = Christ's sake (I just didn't want to go to hell)

whats your point? I see about one that flashes a couple times a week. theres a difference between never and not often. your buddy dofu even said he has seen this out your way. I still dont know how you have never seen this for crissakes!
Someone makes a module that is easily installed to make the brake light flash. I used to have one on my motorcycle when I had it.
LOL that 750 couldn't pass a minivan.
i knew someone was going to catch that! the guy was insane. an old marine (he had a sticker on the back). he must have floored it when i went to pass him on the right cause he took off. surely i could have embarrassed him, but it's 4th of july weekend and the cops are everywhere.

everyone around you is embarrassed by you. I guess you being on the highway is nothing different..
