Anyone with a truck carrying giant flags. If you are in the US, you know what I mean.

Yeah, these are often the people that grumble about women having rights while they crush beer cans in their heads. The supreme assholes are the ones driving $50k+ vehicles with a little black and white flag with a blue stripe. These are the creepy ass country club motherfuckers that own businesses and have racist agendas that actually affect people due to their high status in society.

Yeah, I'm generalizing a lot here (aren't we all?) but by and large those are dog whistle symbols for hatred.

The "Don't Tread On Me" flag placed by these entitled assholes is what always gets me. Bitch, no one has tread on you as much as you tread on everyone else.

(EU) SUVs. Are you insecure and too stupid to drive? GET A CAR 20% larger in every dimension so you can piss off the whole world with your incompetence.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago (2 children)

I live in a Dutch city and there's like 3 people here with dumbass cars like dode rams and everytime I see them the only thing I can think is damn you are an asshole. Those cars are ridiculous

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

These huge vehicles (I can't call them cars anymore) also really don't even fit our roads. Do these people only intend to use their cars on the freeway?

Any one using a light bar or super bright off road lights on the road. They obviously don't care about others. I know you want a car model but every time I see this I wish a cop would/ could take action.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 1 year ago (7 children)

BMW. Eveytime. No blinker use either.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

The BMW drivers have chilled out a little... It's the audi driver these days that are complete tools.

Ford Mustang. Literally never been near one on the road that wasn't revving the engine, tailgating people, and driving like a maniac.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 1 year ago (8 children)

Lifted trucks. My assurance goes up 10x if they have rims and tires meant for the road.

Any cars really, cars have the power to turn any decent human being into soulless sociopath.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 year ago

And what's more there is no model associated with not being driven by an asshole. And no one can prove me wrong 😄

To quote George Carlin "ever notice how anyone driving slowly than you is an idiot? And ever notice how anyone driving faster than you is a MANIAC? It's a wonder how we can get anywhere at all with all these idiots and maniacs driving around. "

Ram Trucks. according to research, these vehicles are the most likely to be driven, and wrecked, by a drunk driver. People who instinctively idolize an animal that solves it's problems by smashing them with it's face... probably not the best people to drive near.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

Living in Australia where US trucks really don't go on our roads well, I can attest to Ram drivers being the most dreadful drivers here. As we've come to call it, Emotional Support Vehicles.

Lifted truck rolling coal is 100% an asshole.

Anything that looks like it just pulled off the battlefield. Like G Wagons and Hummers.

This and big coal rolling, loud ass trucks.

Pick up trucks I get. I'm a tradesman.

But some trucks are absolutely massive, and more often than not MUCH more than the driver needs, and the coal rolling and loudness is just obnoxious af.

Cops still take it tho. Head on a swivel for those shills.

In Australia it's ute (pickup) drivers. If it's a faded mustard colour it's an ancient farmer driving 30 km/h below the speed limit in a no-overtaking area. If it's bright red it's the farmer's grandchild driving at 30 km/h above the speed limit as he* overtakes you in a no-overtaking area.

*It's always a he.

Any truck but Dodge Ram in particular.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

I play games online with a guy from Norway and he was telling me somebody from his town had an imported Dodge Ram.

And I said let me guess - he revs the engine at stop lights, spins out of every single parking lot, and roars through town like a maniac. "How did you know?" They all drive that way! I guess even in Norway they do. I think maybe they get a manual with the vehicle.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

Ram trucks are the official vehicle of domestic abuse.

Tesla's have become the new BMW drivers from my experience as of late.

Anything that makes VRROOOOOOM VROOOOOM noises when it doesn't need to is almost certainly driven by an asshole.

  • Teslas
  • Really large trucks that are clearly not being used for actual work
  • BMWs
  • Lexuses
  • Shitty little ricers that aren't fast, they're just obnoxiously loud
  • Anyone with a rented box truck (like a UHaul) driving in the far left lane of the freeway.
  • Cop cars

NL here: Imported American trucks. You do not need a car that costs €5000/month in fuel alone that you cannot use practically in any way that a van, a regular car or even a bakfiets could do more cost-effectively. The only people who go through the effort to get such a vehicle are compensating for something, and a Dodge Ram in The Netherlands is only useful for dick measuring, and the most significant thing it'll ever move is the owner's fragile ego.

Midsized Audi sedans. These always seem to be following me too close.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago (2 children)

This may just be confirmation bias but it seems like the majority of cars that pull out in front of me forcing me to break when they could have just waited 2 seconds for me to pass seem to be pickup trucks. Bonus points with last weeks one to do that which was also 1) driven by an elderly couple 2) swerveing all over the road, 3) driving 5 miles below speed limit, 4) had unsecured items in the back.

They do make mini-trucks which are much better for fuel mileage while having the benefits of a work truck, but like you said these people aren't buying them with fuel mileage or practicality in mind.
