My Ride: Black/BlacK
When theres plenty of fckin room in front of the guy and he refuses to speed up a bit, which allows everyone and their mother to cut in front of him. Then when you switch lanes to pass him he speeds up to block you from passing him.. I swear I will jump through my windshield and kick you in the back of the head!!! 
(this happened recently with a 3 series driver lmao)

True. As far as it goes. 
Snopes says the signs came out because of the death of an infant that did not occur.
Be that as it may, reports from emergency response personnel say they are glad to see the signs when they arrive at an accident scene so they know what to look for.

Hi Curmudgeon,
Sorry to go off piste as it were, but is "The Beaver State" as good as it sounds?
Ah, just Googled...
"The Beaver is Oregon's state mammal because before they starting building houses there they saw the beavers making their own house."
So, to answer my own question...
No.

Another driving pet peeve:
If you constantly feel the need to go 2 knuckles deep picking your nose, please do us all a favor and get some nice dark tint. I have no need to see the "treasure" you've discovered while scratching your brain. Thank you

Have to update this 
. On the jersey turnpike doing a good 95 when a shit ass chevy minivan has its brights on and is riding my ass. I keep slowing down until I am doing 30 
and start driving in two lanes so that asshole cant pass me without ease. I kept doing it for a good 2-3 mins until I saw more cars behind him.
30 min later a pirus driver is flashing his lights at me. This really pissed me off because I was doing once again a good 80-85 in the left lane so I let him pass and started riding his ass until he exited. God damn these idiots
