Driving pet peeves

The CHMSL (center high-mount stop lamp) mandate started with model year '86. The pictured G-body wagons started life in '78 and were dead by '84, so legally no cyclops required. Fun fact: the G-body wagons used the same rear bumper/lights as the El Camino.

 

That was my point, the new vehicle he was mentioning, should still have a cyclops, despite have some lower mounted lighting. Obviously this doesn't apply to signals. And I hate low mounted signals myself.

Hell, people in NC don't use signals because our LEOs refuse to do anything but enforcement of speeding.

 

I like the people that stop 6” from my rear bumper while stopped at a red light expecting me to accelerate quickly on green. They were wrong.

 

@Steves104x4 Good point.

That reminds me, what's with the people who leave huge gaps at lights between cars? Even sometimes impacting a turn lane - that nobody can squeeze into because someone up front has put a full car length or more between them and the next car.

We have people on I-40, where it's 70mph, you can be doing 80mph and they come up on my bumper.

If I can't see your license plate, you're too fucking close and I'm going to let off my gas, not brake check, let off my gas until you get the message.
