Whats the deal with people who do this? Just read in the type R - P1 thread about some guy flat spotting his tyres from 100mph, cos his gf p*ssed him off...

A few months ago, was in my mates STi v1, and we were talking about turbos, when I told him, "you dont need to take out the whole engine, just to replace a turbo"...
He wouldnt believe me, even though i clearly explained how, got pissed off, and slammed the brakes on!!!! There could have been someone behind us, and it was very stupid. I hate peope who act stupid when driving.

I think, shamefully, even my dad did it once, and tbh, people who cant keep theyr cool in a car, should reconsider a few things before stepping foot in a car again.

 

Strange response to anger...

 

I have got stressed out badly behind the wheel before... got of the road as I was driving like a pleb and had a burger king!

 

now thats what i call sensible driving and good anger managment oh how i miss burger king, none here in japan, apart from in tokyo, which is soooooo far away

 

Learnt a long time ago not to allow my feelings to influence my driving.

I slammed my old scoob into gear once and it wouldn't come out. Panic set in but it moved eventually.

Now, irrespective of how upset I am I drive normally or if I can't I'll stop and have a cig.

Braking hard from any speed for no reason is just childish.

 

he sounds like very wierd freind mate?? jap is he?

 

nah, hes a yank

 

lol well tell him not to get so angry talking about such trivial things!
bloody yanks

 

I learned not to drive the car in anger (like after a fight with the wife!!) after doing it one night and scaring myself lol - not worth it....and too easy to put your foot down in anger too.

 

Little kids stamp their feet in anger, older kids stamp their feet.... on the brake pedal

I just have to do the opposite. Take it upto about 3500 RPM and you can't hear what the other person is saying.

 

I do the opposite and step on the gas when angry

 

I drive hard when I'm angry but only to hear the exhaust.. its like a release..

I live very close to a couple of long open roads so I can slam it to 70 nice and loud without being dangerous or breaking the law !!

No one round either to bother.. The scooby has so many uses

 

i once threw my phone at the floor in anger which bounced off the disck lock and smashed my windscreen, phone was ok though but i felt like a idiot.

 

Male hormones.

 

strange this one. maybe just me but how many of us fall out with loved ones, grab the car keys and slam the door on the way out?

i try not to do it now, as if your not in the right state of mind in a 200bhp plus car... its not just yourself your putting at risk is it?

 

Heh if that happens to me I boot them outa my house

 

send them to "the naughty step"

 

I Live in a bungalow

 

Naughty corner? Or do you live in a turret

 

oval office?

 

 

Theres a camera in my living room! Thats me on the left

 

If a 'mate' of mine pulled a stunt like that, it wouldn't be the brakes I'd be stamping on, that's for sure..!

As said, immaturity/inability to control one's self, most of us grow out of it before we leave the playground, unfortunately some never do..!
