These days, it's the Nissans more than the BMWs.

Seems like they really do give a license and an '09 Altima to anyone with a pulse.

IMHO, Telsas are the new reigning champ for aggressive driving.
Teslas are 50/50 tho. Half are old BMW drivers that wanted the new status symbol and still drive like aggressive cunts. The other half are old Prius drivers who want to maximize efficiency and drive like absolute grandpa's. Altima is almost guaranteed to be aggressively driven.
Yeah i’ve noticed that too. Some crazy aggressive Tesla drivers, with the rest being SUPER slow, bad drivers that shouldnt be on the road (or at least major highways).
It’s funny; I live in a Tesla hotspot and I actually notice slow teslas more than aggressive ones, maybe because I’m surprised they’re being so overly cautious. I guess it’s because everyone seems to have one here. Or… maybe it’s because they’re distracted. Yeah, that’s very possible…
(Full disclosure: I also drive one.)
Same. I'm in the PNW and almost everyone here drives like a snail that is stoned on weed.
Ha ha ha they're not being overly cautious, it's just their overpriced car flat out lied to them about its remaining range 😂
Just waiting for that fucker to get his balls felt in the EU lol
Yeah, I hear about the aggressive Teslas but I always just see them only in my rear view or as I pass them. I just haven't seen the stereotype. Altimas on the other hand...
Conversely, driving a Tesla also makes you a target for aggressive driving. The number of people who feel threatened by EVs is astonishing and many are not afraid to let you know about it via cutting you off, tailgating you, or refusing to let you merge.
I drive a Chevy Bolt for work and RAM drivers routinely roll coal on me.
That's low key funny though like you drive a volt lol
No, I drive a Volt when I drive my Volt that I own. It is not quite the rocket-powered go-kart that tue Bolt is, but it's still quicker off the line than your average can and a lot of fun to drive. Chevy's hybrids and EVs are totally decent cars that cost very little to operate.
Huh sick thought they were similar shit boxes like most other Chevy's
I like to cut off Teslas in particular because they have extra safe following features.
I used to drive a Prius, and unlike most Prius drivers, I would go 80+ often. Any time you pass someone, they then take it as an affront to their masculinity and need to pass you. I've gone by someone driving 75 while going 80, only to have that same person freak out, and speed up to rip past at 90+. It's wild.
IME in Van City, Tesla drivers seem to expect their cameras to see cyclists for them when turning right rather than actually bothering to look.
Same sitch out on the island...
From my experience they get more efficient over 90 mph, I only every go that fast when I have a copilot to help me navigate and help me check lanes before passing. Anytime you let off the accelerator they recharge the battery, its extremely funny to watch the estimated arrival percentage to go up when you are crusing over 100 and occasionally taking your foot off the accelerator. Such a fun driving machine, i just wish Elon wasnt such a cunt.
Is this a serious comment? Teslas are waaaay less efficient over 70 mph. Going 90 mph absolutely destroys your miles/kWh.
Yes, Ive put 100k miles on mine and its just what Ive experienced, it looses alot of efficiency when you go over 55, but ive noticed when I get a buddy (someone going faster in front of me) or I have a copilot watching waze for speed traps, I always gain a few percentage points to my arrival estimate when I drive over 90.
It's called "Pulse glide" it gives more gains with a gas engine but still applies to many systems including HVAC.
