Why do some people drive really fast weave between cars and cut people off and almost hit them doing it?

Answer 1

Because some of us believe that other cars on the road are simply cones, for our enjoyment.

Answer 2

I agree with hot**rod**heaven..

Even city/school bus drivers does not love when they do.

I had four relative incidents. They all occurs in NY, NJ, Rockland County.

When I was riding former Triboro Coach Corportation on Q53 Limited, which was on northbound lane on two-way Beach 116th St in Rockaways, bus was about to make right turn onto two-way Beach Channel Drive, crazy car driver just popped out in front of nowhere from gas station from our right, almost sending as to dashboard.

Another incident was in White Plains, when I was waiting for Bee-Line bus at Tarrytown Rd & Old Keninsco Bus Stop, as not-in-service Bee-Line articulated bus was going westbound, careless truck driver pop out from driveway, and Bee-Line bus was almost about to have accident because driver of bus put brake immediately.

Another incident was when I was riding on hybrid bus on Q6 along Springfield Blvd. As bus was about to cross Atlantic Av, and female driver made illegal right turn, and we almost had accident.

Another incident was when I was riding GoBus25 in morning. Somewhere between Irvington Bus Terminal and Newark Penn Station and Rockland Coach 11C from Spring Valley, NY to GWB Bus Station. I don't remember what street, and according to NJ Police, all cars suppose to yield to bus, because it is YIELD TO BUS LAW in effect in NJ for any buses.

When GoBus25 was about to pull out of lane, car driver cut in front of our bus which is illegal in NJ.

Also, when Rockland Coach 11C was about to pull out its bus stop, car driver made sudden right turn in front of our bus.

Have you heard about express bus on FDR Drive in NYC accident?

Express bus was going southbound in FDR Drive when driver lost control of his bus, and hit the guardrail and lamp, causing 20 passengers onboard injuries, and sending them to dashboard and bus driver was saved because only bus driver has seat belt, but not passengers.

News source tells maybe this accident occur,  bus driver was trying to avoid the maniac driver who was swifting lanes to lanes.

Recent incident, when M2 Limited I was riding on was crossing 86th St, and there was little traffic. Without warning, Con Edison van made dangerous cut in front of heavy bus, giving us uncomfortable ride.

Some people does not respect for buses, trucks and trains, and lightrails.

According to Straphangers Campaign, drivers on Sunrise Highway are driving over speed limit which makes it difficult for pedestrian to cross street.

Answer 3

Maybe some people think they are so skilled at driving as they think they will get away with it without anything happening to anyone. Or just maybe,to them,it's just fun as in a challenge!

Answer 4

The type of driver that drives like that is selfish and self centered. They are so  concerned about getting to their destination that they are not thinking about all the lives they are putting in danger to get there. Some times I think its just a young person trying to show off in their fast car. Sad thing is that they usually end up having a really bad car accident or they lose their license because they have too many tickets.

Answer 5

was that you i passed?

Answer 6

pennsylvanians!

Answer 7

Because they are stupid and they have a cell phone in their hand.

Answer 8

The speed limit sign says 65 mph and I always drive at least 15 over that because I can control my vehicle...C'mon, what's the big deal??..If you go slower than me, at least stay to the right and out of my way...And don't even think about passing another vehicle until I go past you otherwise I'm gonna ride your bumper and flick my lights til you get the point...Stay outta my way!!..Huh??...Waddya mean the first rule of speeding is that there will always be someone going slower in front of me???

So Leadfoot Leadhead has to change lanes constantly in order to keep his speed up...He does this so often and so fast that he doesn't use the turn indicator, mostly because he doesn't know which way he is gonna go himself...And if he doesn't know or doesn't tell anyone else which way he's going, how in the world is everybody else supposed to know?..Lastly, Joe Genius is using more than twice the fuel to go the same distance as the rest of us...Thanks, pal.

Answer 9

it is usually the inexperienced kids who think they are fast and furious. those are the idiots that cause the wrecks.

Answer 10

Speed freaks, they tend to do silly things like these because they were agitated to do so.

Answer 11

probably a male, teenage driver... or a very immature adult

Answer 12

because they are stupid and have no respect for others.

and these are the people that scream blue murder when they get there license taking of them. the thing is how often do you catch them at the next traffic lights anyway.
