There are 5 different sections with passing zones on St. Andrews. All but two are useless without massive acceleration abilities

Your the idiot here. I would've just pulled to the shoulder once I got off the bridge and let her pass. It's not worth getting pissed off about or getting in an accident over if somebody's that hard up about getting around you. You never know what some of these crazy drivers are going to do.
I usually let them know I'm, not happy about them on my rear and if that doesn't work let 'em by. I usually pull up to them at the next light.

You can always come up with a reason.

Yes, you can pass more than one car at a time.

I had a base cop try to ticket me for that. He was tailgating a slow moving truck so I very carefully passed them both. He pulled me over and gave me an unsigned warning. I took it to the head guy he next day and he just shook his head and said, " I think I know who this was."

This message is for you.....

When I tapped my brakes the first time.. that should have been a warning.... to back off

When I slowed down it was to go ahead and let you in the back seat since that's obviously what you had in mind....

I feel I should tell you [in case you are actually the author of the "propoganda" thread in this forum...] I am a heterosexual female and you are simply not my type.... so back the f off....

Oh and incase you missed it at the KMART driving school you obviously graduated from....Tailgating is not considered safe driving practice....


Mornings are the best time to f**k with tailgaters. You just know they're drinking a hot cup of java. When you see 'em lift that cup to their face, LOCK 'EM UP!!!!

reminds me of my youthful days.... I'd wait for my passenger to lift a bottle of beer to his lips, then hit the gas. He couldn't help but shotgun the bottle until I let off the gas....
