Of an impatient white WRX driver and his middle finger drama
-
Yep.I've seen many impatient drivers and this one takes the cake.It's a white Scooby and he flashed his middle finger so passionately that he was pounding the interior of his RH window with his fist.
Say around 1015pm?Somerset Road.He happened to be behind a green Toyota who was just slowing down to turn into the carpark.That's when he revved and rounded the Toyota, stared at the latter and pounded his middle finger five times.
tsk.Such impatience is really uncalled for.Not to mention the disgrace he has placed upon real motorsports enthusiasts.Many of these rally cars, I've observed, have drivers who are either too quick to horn, spew expletives or flip the bird at anyone who is slower or happens to obstruct their whole show-off sequence down a busy city street.
You'd never see a Delta Integrale or a Maserati driver flip birds like burgers.

oh! its in singapore

the other morning when i was going to work, i was along the PIE towards the BKE...
well i was tailgated by this white WRX..
he got VERY near.. being in the rightmost lane, i was at 100km/h already... so i sped up to get some distance between us.. up to 120km/h
he was still behind me tailgating me!
then he pulled back a little and then overtook me on the left recklessly and disappeared very quickly.. so he must have been going at about 150km/h or above!
he must have been late.. but at 6:55am? -

But to be fair, not all WRX drivers are pricks.There are many nice chaps too, just a few that spoil the picture. -

if u dun wan to give way den dun complain when he overtake u on the left -
I don't see why Bear had to give way when he was already past the speed limit, and probably engaged simulataneously in overtaking of the other cars in the center lane at 100.And I think you missed the gist, he was telling us an event, not complaining.Originally posted by ah_tee:u shld have given way to him instead of complaining here

The tailgater has no right to speed, so he cannot demand the right of way.

i was overtaking people who were in the middle lane...
give way? there is a safe way of giving way... and that is to make sure you do not smash into the cars in the middle lane... that was the only reason he was tailgating me.. if there weren't, he'd have overtaken me..
when i accelerated to about 120, there weren't any more cars to my left..
and thank goodness i didn't just filter to the middle lane because he did that and shot past me like i was standing still
oh well...
i hope he wasn't late...
oh.. btw.. when he overtook me, he went into the left lane, then back all the way to the right and into the middle again weaving around the traffic before i lost sight of him...
i don't think he was waiting for anyone to "give way" -
don't worry i can assure u his days on the roads are numberedOriginally posted by the Bear:i was overtaking people who were in the middle lane...

its the Lancia Delta Integralle...the one which won the WRC title 7 years in a rowOriginally posted by SBS9828X:si mi delta? Spaceship har? -
Heh... oh yah... were you the one who was wondering if it was a WRX or TS?Originally posted by LazerLordz:Yep.I've seen many impatient drivers and this one takes the cake.It's a white Scooby and he flashed his middle finger so passionately that he was pounding the interior of his RH window with his fist.

Nope.It's a WRX alright.The bov was too obvious.Originally posted by LH83:Heh... oh yah... were you the one who was wondering if it was a WRX or TS? -
Oei! Dun say the Evo till like dat!Originally posted by AE86tofu:If I'm driving a Delta I'd make sure my delta has some WRX or evos for dinner.... 
one of my Fave cars sia... Summore pple always stereotype Evo8 drivers as Rich brats!
Hmm... Today saw a Lambo at Ubi. When moving at low speeds, the engine seems growling like a lion. When the Lambo reached the main road, the Driver floored the gas a little. Wah! The sound of the air forcefully compressed in the SuperCharger is much sweeter den that of any Turbo Car's blow off Valves!!!!!! The GTR is the only JAp car I noe which sounds almost as good as a Lambo! -

everyone has the right to speed, jus that he will have to pay the price if he gets caught, u know wads the right lane is called ? its the overtaking laneOriginally posted by LazerLordz:I don't see why Bear had to give way when he was already past the speed limit, and probably engaged simulataneously in overtaking of the other cars in the center lane at 100.And I think you missed the gist, he was telling us an event, not complaining.

the limit of NSH is 110-120, but if u choose to stay in the right lane at their speed n ignore pple coming from the back , dun blame it if one day a tour bus rear end u
one day, they do travel above the speed limit
so the general rule of the thumb is, u can travel on the right lane but give way to faster vehicles -
if u had the intention to give way, but cant, u shld have turn on ur left signalOriginally posted by the Bear:i was overtaking people who were in the middle lane...

i don't think he was waiting for anyone to "give way"
while overtaking the vehicles on the middle lane , waiting for a slot to go in
even when u r at the speed limit does not give u the right to HOG the right lane,
if the fella wan to speed, tats his problem
for all u know he maybe attending to a emergency, and rushing to hospital or somewhere
u really remind me of those aunties who wear gloves n drive-hog on the right lane at 90kmh, they dont even know one long que is behind them, no amt of high beam will make them glance at the rear mirror and find out wads wrong
they jus have it in their mindset they going at 90kmh on a 90kmh can liao, nothing matters
