Seriously. I grew up in the Midwest and just assumed we were awesome drivers. Then I moved to SoCal and learned a new way to drive. Now that I am back in the Midwest, holy shit! You guys suck! It's small town entitled drivers thrown into congested city traffic and the results are just terrible. Here is a short list:
The "I need an entire football field in front of me". This guy keeps an entire stadium between him and the car in front. When you need to get over to make a turn and get in front of him....holy shit! He slams on his breaks, dramatically honks his horn, and sometimes pulls up in the next lane to yell out you. WTF dude, you don't own that real estate
The "never let you over". This driver rides at your corner. When you speed up, they speed up. When you slow down so do they. They somehow get personal satisfaction from not letting you over into the lane so you can fucking turn. Sometimes they even smirk or laugh with their passenger about this
The "I don't believe in zipper mergers" driver. This is pretty much every GD Midwest driver out here. Research has shown over and over that zipper merging speeds up the flow of traffic. But this driver insits on getting over the minute the see the road narrows sign ten miles back. Then believes you are cutting them off if you try to zipper merge
The "slow/stahled turner". They turn slower than the Titanic trying to avoid the iceberg. They also are phone to get into a parking lot and not use turnsignals and just dead stop in the entrance. Also gets mad if you whizz around them after waiting 60 seconds for them to MAKE UP THEIR DAMN MIND!
