No such thing as a non douchebag Lexus driver
Just an observation with a large daily sample size.

I wonder what they think of bmw or porsche drivers zipping around them and breaking their zoned out meditative states and making them pay actual attention.

Not untrue. But usually there’s more Lexus drivers than others.

Meh. Drivers are pretty much universally terrible and inconsiderate. If you ever want to experience this, simply drive a truck towing a trailer. It's almost as though your turn signals are flashing "please speed up and pull along side me so I can't merge." I've taken to putting on the signal when there's a hole and just moving over. If someone really wants to speed up and sideswipe my trailer, they can play that game

Also I never want to be behind a pickup truck either ... they pick up rocks and literally throw them at my car. Is there someone hidden in the pick up bed with a stash of rocks doing this I just took a bit of a road trip in my daughters A4 and the trailers kicked up quite a bit of road debris ... BTW great car for a road trip |

I don't like being behind trailers either. But it's a dick move to speed up specifically to block someone from merging. |

I definitely agree it is a dick move to do that, it is obviously intentional and very inconsiderate .. definitely not my style of driving.
