Austin drivers are nuts. Half are people going too fast, and half going way too slow. Makes chaos on the roads, which are poorly designed anyway.

I am far more inclined to honk at another driver for a shit driving move as opposed to flipping them off. Under the right circumstances I will hold that horn down for a solid 10 seconds.doug rr wrote:I'm pretty sure I flip off about 1 driver per day for riding my ass
