Default R almost killed way too many times. Pissed.

Well, Day after day i drive (delivery and etc.) Without fail, there is always somebody who almost kills me, or my R, or my gramps Sentra.

Today, I am driving at about 40 mph, and some dumb **** in a benz runs the stop sign out of shop rite and cuts me off at like 20 mph, and I mean RUNS, and slows down to about 5 mph. I almost nailed him and screamed at him at the next light. What a dick, he wouldnt even at least roll his window down and talk to me at first like I requested. All i would have said is "dont run stop signs and drive carefully...*******"

Later on, I am driving through a traffic light that is green and turns yellow quickly. A car makes a left turn, crossing in front of me. All good. The car behind him thinks that means he can go too, as if he is attached to the other car. WRONG. I jam the brakes as ABS reacts and he does to, leaving us both in the middle of the intersection. I give him the "WTF" shrug. He gives me the "Whatever" shrug as he drives past. ******** in a jeep.

And yet again, I am driving and am about to make a right hand turn when a dumb bitch in an echo decides that she can make a left turn in front of a car making a right turn going the same way. No "almost accident" (compared to the rest) but a great way to cap off the R's near death experiences

One day the R may be toast, and all I will see is many bars, because I know I will lose it.

Venting, because poor drivers are the only people who drive me insane enough to feel the need for prescription drugs.

Still pissed

**** happens man, that's how life is. I go through almost the same scenario almost everyday. There's nothing you can do about bad drivers but drive defensively. No offense, but there's no point in rambling about it in the ITR forum, maybe GDD? :/

Drive a beater, you'll relax a lot and live longer

People see a shiny, newish car and they assume you'll stop. They see a faded heap and assume you won't.

Then again, the rise of the "Me First" mentality has resulted in some exceptionally shitty driving around here. Time to hook up the air horns.

Haha, ain't that the truth!

But, in all seriousness, just relax when you drive. When you get angry, that's when your most likely to get into an accident or have a road rage. If you get angry, you're no better than 99% of the idiots on the road.

I am always angry when i drive my Type R.

Come on people, you all own Integra Type Rs, am I suppose to believe that you drive like the average drivers out there? hell No!!!

I bet most of you are speeders, and cut people off like the fast and the furious.. so just admit it and stop complaining.

Before I own a Type R, I curse at the way these people who drive Type Rs...but now i understand... why

Uh, NO. Drive fast sometimes (in the right places and at the right times)? Yes. Drive like a dick and FAF? Hell no.

If you're always angry when you drive your Type R, then maybe you should buy a 4x4 truck and come back to the R in a few years when you've matured enough to appreciate what you have.

Fast and the Furious = gay

Maybe you think its cool to drive like they do in movies. Not many people here share your belief.

I especially like it when other drivers almost hit you and then get mad at you when you're like "WTF?" SUV drivers 9 times out of 10.

Wow, you need to go see a therapist before you do something really dumb.

ITR is just a car. If you drive it like normal Honda, what's the problem?

How many times have you seen accidents on here that ITR owners ever admit it's ever their fault? I think the percentage is close to 0???

No, we don't make mistakes, because we are Type R drivers.. duh...

How many times i watched the Type R videos some of you guys posted. and see how some of you peeps drive... I gotta admit, those are pretty crazy drivers.

I don't own a Type-r, but am always trolling in this forum, and the only time I see videos of people driving agressive, or talking about it is when they are on the track. There is a time and place for everything. You obviously don't get that.

Was it by any chance a Chesterfield sofa? And were you by any chance driving on a cricket pitch?
