Rude kids

[PCMarine]

That's why you need to have one of these attached to your car.

I can see it now...
(SUV Full of unruly kids cuts you off)
You: "Oh no you didn't bitch!"
(You press a button which pops out that minigun from your car and let it fire for a second or two, unleashing thousands of rounds)
Problem Solved.

Tsk, raising the age limit to 18 because of a small percentage of the population is not a good way of solving the problem

Yeah it is plus it's not such a small percentage!

As much as I don't want to admit it Red Dawn is right. I'm in the age group of people turning 16 now and everyone gets their car and just sees how fast they can floor it and dumb sh!t like that.

But I don't think the double standard (Females are equal and get a way younger legal driving age?) is right. I think it should stay the way it is with extremely harsh punishments for 16-20 year old drivers on most any traffic offences.

Alberta, Canada, as of May 20, will be enacting such a thing. You get a probationary liscence at 16 with fewer allowed demerits, ANY alcohol in system is liscence suspension, etc. I think its a step in the right direction.

I'm 17, and yes, I've squacked the tires and what not, but I mean I'm a responsible driver, I've never went past 75mph in my life (ok so maybe it was 80mph on the interstate)

Anyways, just because there are some arrogent assholes doesn't mean everyone should lose the ability. I think people need to take an attitude test to get a license too..

 

[amishhonda]

should've followed them and made them apologize...

If you have a Cell Phone, call 911, that's what it's for. They could have caused a bad accident if someone had lost control of their car during something like that. If not, ram them off the road and drive away laughing.

Another cheer for the police today! It isn't worth their time until someone gets seriously injured or killed, apparently.

Funny I made that post.. a guy I know today has had his liscence for 2 months now and rear ended someone this morning when not paying attention.

Quick question original poster- you're a guy that uses a female avatar- why?

 

[gotsmack]

buy one of those fake guys that look real, next time just show it to the kids.

It's sad that police officers actually told you that they have their hands full. Man I don't know what to say except that I've been in that exact situation. In fact the other night I was driving with my father, girlfriend, and I and I changed lanes and this SUV came out of nowhere blazing his horn at me. He drove really fast and caught up to my side window and there were a bunch of young kids probably in their late teens eyeing me out and just trying to stir up trouble. It makes me wish I was > 18 again.

you wish you were over 18 again?

If the driving age was to be raised, it should be raised across the board...none of this male/female difference. I got my restricted/permit license in April of 2000, and my full license (and car) last August. Haven't got a ticket & haven't had an accident (came fairly close when someone was *backing up* on NW 39th Ave..major road in Gainesville)..

Ban cell phones & increase test requirements..that would help a bit.

The driver should have yielded the way to me, but instead took a right turn and merged into the first lane from the third lane. I honked at him and the people(aged 17-18) in the car showed me the finger. Then the driver drove parallel to me and started throwing rocks. One rock just missed my wife and hit the car.


Then they started calling me names and were very abusive. Motha#@@#@. Do not Fu@# with us. etc . , etc., I got their license plate number and drove down to the nearest police station which was five miles away. :disgust: I talked to this cop at the police station who says that they got their hands full and can take the complaint but probably won't do anything.

Situations like this are why I do not own a hand gun. I would not be able to restrain myself unfortunately.

I would contact the police again since they attacked you and your vehicle (yes technically they did attack you right?) Plus damage to your vehicle, sounds like they could receive criminal charges and repair fees for your car. Unfortunately it doesn't sound like you have any evidence against them.

really did not want to mess with these kids. They stopped their vehicle on a busy three lane road. i couldn't believe my own eyes. being an international student is really tough sometimes.

I would be writing a letter to the chief of police right now. THAT is a bullsh!t response. where do you live btw?

Oh comeon red, you know no one ever got anywhere with reactionary legislation. I agree that many 18 year olds (16 as well) drive recklessly (my self included, more so when I first got my car, not often now that I have realized one that it is dangerous, and two my car has to last me a while) however, I don't buy into this theory that girls are less prone to get in accidents, no matter what "studies" show. I knew this one girl who on the first day of having her permig (15 year old restricted license) got into 2 wrecks, the first one only banged up the bumper, the second one totalled the car. she has since gone through 2 other cars. More girls at my school have gotten into wrecks than guys. I think it is more a function of, girls getting in more trivial wrecks, but when a guy gets into a wreck, they don't exactly walk away on their own.

 

[Evadman]

I can say that I did come crazy sh!t when I was 16-18 and driving. I am now 23. I can say with autority that drivers licences should be as Red Dawn said, "18 and over".

If someone did that to me, I would be like Minendo, and put a dent in their truck/suv with my zuk.

 

[Gunther]

I think you can take them to small claims court for the damages. But I would talk to the police again because they did attack you...

My wife and myself use the same id.

 

[MrYogi]

I am going to talk to the police again. I know for sure that they will take the complaint but won't do anything.

I have the color, make, model and license plate number of the car. Should I write down what happened to me on a piece of paper, make copies and post them at the five schools in that area, walmart, and target? hehehe I don't have anything to do this weekend.

Right...

I am all for raising the driving age, but females are 10x more shitty drivers than males.

YES! Blame it on the cops! Even though they can't have proper staffing and equipment due to cutbacks it is ALL THEIR FAULT. Shut up goober licker.

next time don't honk. What do you want police to do, go and talk to the owner of the car? He will say he has no idea what you are talking about end of the story

 

[narzy]

you could get their information via the DMV and take them to small claims court. then their parents will know what kinda assholes they raised.

I'd check your thinking if I were you.
