Old people just don't get any respect. :roll:

Y'all are gonna jump on Dave, but I was willing to do the same,
and gimp up the street, wheezing, with a threatening T-shirt.

Nothing good would come out of it. ROADHOG could end up dead, injured, or arrested. The other person would claim self defence and get away with it. :tears:

Bentsrider I know what you're talking about there are certain parts of California you have to watch more than usually for the idiots as I call them. I used to drive a truck and trailer gas tanker out there and have to deal with the morons on the road as well as in the stations while dropping gas watch out for the idiots that run the cones over, drive or back into the truck try and drive over the hoses or you and say I didn't see the cones or the shiny tank truck as their excuse. I guess you have to just be the professional one and just take a deep breathe and go on with your day. :thumbsup:

Riding my bicycle out here everyday, I know that the majority are either unlicensed drivers, or young punk(17-20) high-school/college kids that are either too scared to attract police attention, or act tough when driving daddy/mommys pickup or SUV.

Other states drivers I wouldn't mess around with, but CA is about as full of fruits and nuts as you could get.
Seems like any time I was going down the 60, 10, 710, or 210 during the day whether it was car or semi, there seemed to be 10-20 accidents an hour!!

Yeah, there's bad drivers everywhere, but this state gets the cake.
