I love driving in the winter when you can deter tailgaters by driving partly on the slush or sand filled shoulder.

Worst case scenerio a couple days ago outside town. Look for a safe spot and head on a swivel after any accident. Hits close to home. Was my zone for 5+ years, not now

Wasn’t driving like an asshole, but was a few months late, which I can admire. Saw this lady yesterday.

Forgive me if this has been posted but I loath when people are in a crowded parking lot or busy street and put their car in reverse and just sit there. The other day a woman was on the last space on a block of parallel parked cars. I was late for an appointment and I pulled off 50 feet behind her because her reverse lights were on. after about a minute I tapped my horn to let her know I was waiting. she then backed up 5 feet put it in drive and would not move, I finally drove by and she immediately pulled out behind me.

Try driving in Spain. Everyone who passes pulls in about an inch off of the front bumper causing an instinctually disengagement of the cruise or dropping of the throttle to increase the following distance they just fubared. I didn't want to quote your longer story about being blocked by semis intent on not letting you pass. That is bad enough. I had a semi pull right out in front of me in an obvious blocking action while passing the semi behind it a few years ago on 80 in Nebraska. They were doing about 25 mph. Solid ice in the hammer lane and I had a little momentum trying to get by them in a good clear safe area as is my custom since I have a million plus accident free miles driving class 10 commercial vehicles so I always want to give them space and a safety margin. Had to hammer the brakes to avoid running into the back of the asshole or running off the road to the left. Thankfully ice tires. Car full of kids. Fucking asshole redneck hick fuck truck drivers. This is where a cam would be nice. When we finally went by them my wife made sure I didn't flash the bird. No way to teach assholes a lesson anyway.

New Study Says Expensive Cars Are Bought by Jerks Who Won't Yield
An experiment shows that for every $1000 increase in a car's price, the odds of that driver yielding to a pedestrian in a crosswalk decrease by 3 percent.
Prior studies in California have found that drivers of nicer cars are more likely to exhibit unethical behavior, cutting other drivers off at a four-way intersection and failing to yield to pedestrians. The explanation for this, according to the latest study, "may be that drivers of higher-value cars . . . felt a sense of superiority over other road users." Other studies have found that people with higher socioeconomic status have less empathy in general

Don't doubt the veracity of this story, so maybe I'm the outlier. I'm lucky to drive nicer cars, nothing Bobby Stainless level, but decent, and I go out of my way to drive courteously and super defensively when I'm in my sports car. Mostly because it's low and I'm aware that the sea of bloated suvs can't see me below their fat waistlines and iPhone XL screens, but really because I'm aware that all anyone needs these days to make your life on the road hard is to label you as an "entitled asshole in a nice car".
Can confirm.
I live in a city that is a sea of nothing but Range Rovers and Uber Black Escalaaaaaades and they are both far and away the most clueless, talentless, entiteld drivers on the road. For different reasons though.I still call it The Jake.

In my unscientific opinion the higher a vehicle sits off the road the more inconsiderate the driver. Partly the mind set of people who drive large SUVs and severely lifted PU's, but also due to the way that being up above the road changes your perception.
