Cranium in Rectal Storage

[DBMaster]

A little while ago I was nearly sideswiped by a guy who was so involved in his non-hands-free cell phone conversation that he was still moving toward me from the on-ramp as I was blaring the horn continuously. After he finally swerved back into his own lane he was behind me. I held my hand to my ear and mocked him by rocking my head back and forth in an animated fashion. I guess he noticed it, even through my tinted back window, and did the same thing back to me.

Does that mean anything? Sure seemed odd to me. I normally stay out of the right lane near entrance ramps, but I needed to exit 1/4 mile ahead. He just literally was going to occupy my space in the right lane. He was that oblivious.

It's so funny watching people like that looking like pananoid schitzophrenics talking to themselves haha.

Thats "ops normal" around here...

I look at it this way. Every day I get the opportunity to go to driving school and test my accident avoidance reflexes. The objective is, make it to work alive and you pass.

For anyone that excersizes reasonable diligence on the road as I imagine most of us BITOGers do, this type of moronic bliss is most infuriating and quite honestly inexcusable. I can get very dramatic in my efforts to move as far away as possible from these people and that usually includes full-throttle and high RPM! Interestingly, that only wakes some of them up

I really have to install a dual-horn setup in this Mazda. The OEM horn is single and as wimpy sounding as they come. I don't want to get carried away, but I do not use the horn often and try to use it effectively. What I have now is inadequate.

What amazes me is to see people walking across roads, face buried in their cell phone. I guess they don't imagine a driver might also have his/her face buried in the phone and not see them crossing.

Yeah my DD has a wimpy horn. Would like to get one from a locomotive.

I really need to grab an old Cadillac 4 tone horn setup from the junkyard.

Yeah, not a very Japanese sounding horn

Upgrading is def. a good idea, the 3's horn sounds like that of an '86 Escort

HORNBLASTERS! A Nathan K5LA would perk a few people up quick

We don't use horns in Mass. We simply give each other the finger.

I thought up there the only horn is used to get the boat to pick you up after you drive off the bridge

That describes driving in Houston to a tee! I not only try to get to work or home alive but with most of what I am driving in tact as well....

And not just any dual trumpet horn: Get the Franco-Italian tuned horns: they're slightly higher pitched than the usual duals you see in the shops.
