    Default No wonder everyone thinks BMW drivers are douchebags...

    This happened yesterday at roughly 8:30 pm. I was driving down MacLeod Trail coming over the hill near the Shaw building, when I hear this horrible bumblebee noise.

    I look to my right and see this arse in a black E36 sedan rip over the hill, must have been doing close to 110 KM/H, and had to jam hard on the brakes just to be able to stop at the red light near the Toyota dealer.

    Off the green, this idiot goes hard at it again, and I just idle up to my cruising speed, he's now football fields ahead of me.

    Next light, SAME IDIOT. You'd think going 110 in a 60 would let you beat the lights, no? Now there is a late model BMW X5, beige in colour beside him. Light goes green, and these morons start racing each other.

    They did this all the way down MacLeod until the idiot in the E36 pulled off before the bridge near Heritage. And then there was me, just slowly accelerating, hoping that I wouldn't get clumped in with the two idiots who just happen to drive the same brand of vehicle as me.

    It was like watching two grown retards kicking sand at each other.

    If either of those two heros are on here, you're a couple of wankers, take it to the track before you kill someone.

    Who cares...Honestly who REALLY gives a fuck? Do you have any idea how many people try to race me/ I see race down busy roads? It's not going to change anytime soon, peoples ego's are too big to go to the track because they know all these neons will be putting their m3's, etc to shame.. Street racing isn't going to stop, even with the seriouse consequences implemented. It's not just beemer drivers either everyone does it. If I ranted about every car that tried to get me to go, I would have taken up all of beyond.ca's bandwith.

    Yeah, after the first couple replies, I kinda got that feeling... fuck, you'd think it was a story about ME racing, and I drive, for the most part, like someone's granddad.

    It's okay, we all have our generalizations, likes and dislikes. For example, I feel that Toyota drivers are quite possibly the most out-to-lunch, clueless bunch of idiots on the road. If there's someone in the passing lane on the motorway keeping everyone backlogged, good chance it's a Toyota driver, as has been my experience. Someone who forgot that the light turned green five seconds ago? Toyota driver.

    So we're even, as far as I'm concerned.

    Did the e36 also have black wheels? Cause I've never seen him driving like an idiot

    I do agree with you about the cluelessness of toyota drivers, mostly fairly new corollas. The only people who buy those cars are ones who don't really give a shit what they drive and have no clue what they're doing.

    Its funny all the name calling that goes on with Bimmer owners. I'm probably the most courteous and respetful driver most people will ever see on the roads, as are every other BMW driver I've seen most often then not. I've never seen any "douchebag" weave in between traffic, or do half the stuff you guys call out. The biggest douche bags I personally see on the roads are these idiot kids with their riced out civics trying to race me all the time, or weave in between traffic.
    Trying to overcompensate for something are we?

    Can't remember 110%, but I don't believe it had black wheels. Looked pretty much stock, although it sounded like he replaced his muffler with a replica made out of tin-foil... sounded horrible.

    Toyota drivers buy their cars like they buy their appliances. It gets them from point A to point B. Unfortunately, they know SFA about road etiquitte.

    x2! When I see someone coming up behind me and I'm erroneously in the passing lane, I move to the right to let them pass. I don't cut people off, but I do exercise my right of way. I let people in when they signal. In no way should I be commended for doing these things; it's called courtesy, and it should be expected of from all drivers.

    You think bimmer drivers are bad?

    Try riding a bike. I can't pull up to a stop light without some civic beside me bouncing off the rev limiter.

    It's like... I'm fairly certain I could make it down the quarter mile and back before you make it to the end. Why would I want to risk your dumbass swerving into me for that kind of excitement?
