Just as a more positive counterpoint to this article: Often times you can get a free upgrade if you just ask! Several times when renting a car, I’ve simply walked in and said, “I’m a car guy. Do you HAPPEN to have anything more interesting for me?” More than once I’ve been upgraded. Once I got upgraded from a tiny…

Who refers to their own car as “the vehicle?”

No, it isn’t a zipper merge. A zipper merge is alternating traffic where two lanes become one lane. This is just changing lanes... illegally, and in a douchy manner. But it isn’t a zipper merge.

That doesn’t even make any sense. It sounds like you were driving properly. In that situation you’re SUPPOSED to use both lanes up to the merge point. What was the ticket FOR exactly?!

I don’t think a SINGLE person in that line was upset at the cop. Trust me. I would GLADLY sit still for 10 minutes if it meant the assholes who do this would get pulled over and ticketed.

People who do this not only fuck over everyone else in the line, but often are the cause of congestion on the main road, when they…

Yes, boggled. The zipper merge isn’t a difficult concept.

Then again, using your turn signal isn’t a difficult concept. Maybe I should lower my expectations. This is America, after all...

Don’t compare this to a zipper merge. This is NOT a zipper merge. At all.

It boggles my mind when people try to compare this kind of maneuver to the “zipper merge.” They aren’t at ALL the same thing! WTF.

This looks like something from TrackMania.

I’m okay with this.

You have, quite literally, no idea what you’re talking about.

Lol, I got what he meant. I was joking that the Porsche shouldn’t have listened to its driver :P

...AND IF YOUR FRIEND TOLD YOU TO JUMP OFF A BRIDGE, WOULD YOU DO THAT TOO??? DUMB PORSCHE IS DUMB!

Oh, I gotcha. And yeah to clarify, since some others seem to have misinterpreted, I didn’t RUN OVER it with my car. That would be dumb. It passed under my car, between my tires.

You’re not understanding. My car passed OVER it. Like it went between my tires. No part of my vehicle touched it. I could have cared less about the Porsche behind me, and there was plenty of space between us and the other vehicles.

What about what I did, exactly, was clueless? I’m in a vehicle with 8" of ground clearance. I passed right over it...

Yup! I want to see potholes/dead animals/tire chunks/4x4s BEFORE my bumper does!

My best revenge is probably one of the simplest ones that happened probably around 10 years ago now. I was in my 1998 Subaru Outback, driving 450 miles home from college. There was a guy in a brand new, beautiful, black 911 Turbo, who I could see weaving around cars behind me cutting through traffic (two-lane highway…

I don’t know why so many enthusiasts think that you’re only an enthusiast if you flip cars twice a year. Some of us buy a car for the long haul. I bought my BRZ on a 72 month loan, and plan on driving it until the wheels fall off.

Confused where you got the information that the wire was clipped. The video just says (and shows) that the turbulence created by the aircraft cause the camera to shake back and forth violently and break off from its mount...

“Whaddya mean who’s flying the plane?!”
*looks at Benji holding the controls*
“NOBODY’S flying the plane!”
