Drove the BMW to the Ford

[mattm04]

I am driving down a 2 lane road with some sharp turns in it. Their are 4 cars in front of me and a two behind. Directly behind me is Mr. Asshole BMW driver. As we approach one of the turns, Mr. Asshole BMW decides to pass all 5 of us. A chorus of horns is heard followed by screeching tires and crunching metal sounds. The traffic stops.

One of the drivers up front gets out, then quickly returns to their car. Several minutes later traffic slowly begins to move. As I drive by I see they hit the rear quarter panel of a Ford, Crown Vic, with the word "POLICE" on the side in big huge letters.

Their is one VERY unhappy looking cop holding a clipboard, writing stuff down and talking on his phone. Nearby is the BMW, driver side headlight in pieces on the road and some major scratches and dents. With a very pale looking driver leaning on the guard rail.

The BMW driver kept flipping others the bird as they looked. As i went on my way down the road by a Police SUV drove by, lights flashing. Normally the supervisors drive SUVs in that jurisdiction.

I couldn't be happier. No offense to the BMW drivers who are not flaming idiots.

That's some awesome pwnage!

[Kogarashi]

Awesome! This almost makes up for all the stupid stunts I see that don't get karmic retribution.

That BMW driver is lucky his stunt didn't get him killed.

My Beemer! My Beemer!

Hey dude, forget your car for a minute. Your arm's been torn off!

My Rolex!

Yep, all 12 of them

Seriously, what is it about those cars that turns the majority of owners into fucking idiots?

Just the other night, I decided to take the long way home. As I'm making my way up Route 51, what should get behind me? Some dipshit in a 7-series BMW right on my ass. Close enough, that if I was to reach out my rear window, I could slap him. As soon as I could, I start trying to move back into the right lane...when he floors it, and nearly rams me

Speed limit is only about 40-45mph down there, and this tool is doing about 80. 80mph into a borough that usually has *multiple* police cars looking for speeders. At the entrance to my borough, traffic usually picks up--several shopping centers, fast-food joints, etc. mean lots of traffic lights. I'm sure it took him down several notches, when I'd either pass him at the lights, or pull up right next to him at *every* light. Seriously, if you're going to speed, and drive like an asshole, at least get some distance out of it...

But, that doesn't compare to what a 3-series owner did during the snowstorm last year. He apparently decided that the traffic on Washington Blvd. wasn't moving fast enough. So he whipped his car into the left lane, nearly ending up in oncoming traffic before passing us all, then whipping back into the right lane...right into the back of a stalled truck

You know, I actually owned a Beemer for about a year.



It was collateral on a defaulted loan; I was finally able to sell it for the loan amount, which was $1,000.

So, why did such a nice looking car sell for such a low price? Well, the engine needed to be rebuilt. That's not such a big deal, no? But turns out the engine was already rebuilt in the past, probably in Mexico, where original BMW gaskets were difficult to get. No problem; the mechanic who did the rebuild just brazed the engine together instead.

I read the title and thought a guy drove his BMW to a Ford dealership.

Because people who aren't already idiots look at the reputation that the car owners have and pick another fancy car?

You're behind the times over here. While there are still plenty of Beemer drivers who are complete arses in the UK, the reall f*ckwits are the ones driving Audis. At least the BMWs are decent cars, most of the Audis on the road around here are all mouth & no trousers

[Magpie]

Hey, despite being a mechanical engineer about the only thing I know about cars is that they're a real pain. Even more so if you get stuck having to drive one.

[mikoyan29]

I think BMW offers some kind of "How to Drive Like A BMW Driver" class. I mean it's usually a BMW weaving in and out traffic. I'm usually shocked when I see one with a blinker on. Oh well.....

Hitting a cop car...that can't be good.

We get those too, but not nearly as many.

But, one Audi driver this morning, had me going all the way to work. He was literally all over the road. Any sort of road flaw had him swerving to either side and/or slamming on the brakes trying to avoid it. Half of the time, he was straddling the oncoming lane, or nearly on the damn sidewalk. At least he took the hint to knock it off...when a city bus coming the other way blew its horn and flashed its lights at him. Freaking moron

I've always loved this expression!

In the Los Angeles area, it's moved from BMWs more to Mercedes Benzes. You still get the random Beemer asshat, but you also get a lot of decent drivers, too. 'Cedes, tho, are almost exclusively driven by men who are using their car to project a status level that they otherwise completely fail to meet; probably expecially so in the "personal equipment" department.

There are also a lot of Lexus drivers who think their car is something special and conveys unto them some right to rule the road.

That's because they're upset...that they spent 80 grand on a tarted-up Toyota
