Aggresive Driving School

Got this brochure from the Aggressive Driving School and thought I'd list some highlights if you're interested.

FOLLOWING DISTANCES
Can you see the whites of the driver's eyes in his mirror
Any driver can be be intimidated at any speed
How to drive two mph faster than the car in front of you
When you're REALLY late for work
Trading paint like a pro


LANE CHANGES
That's what they're there for
No lane is good enough
Technically, sidewalks are a lane
The grass IS always greener


GETTING THINGS DONE BEHIND THE WHEEL
Eat, drink and be merry. You can have it all
Taking two calls at the same time, headsets are for wimps
Three inch hole in newspaper means you're up to date and keeping an eye on the jerk in front of you


TURN SIGNALS
Meeting legal requirements without actually revealing your intent
Left turn - place the left hand at 10 o'clock on wheel, as you begin the turn extend the fingers of left hand and 'catch' the indicator lever. Right turn - place left hand at 7 o'clock, extend fingers and 'catch' indicator lever.


THE 'BIRD'
Bird etiquette
Mouthing multi-syllable four letter words
Horn used as a 'Bird' prelude
The Double Bird
(steering with your knees)

ATTITUDE DRIVING
I have nothing to live for
The bob and weave, keep them guessing
I'm under the influence of ...
Mr. Indestrucible
This car is stolen


FIREARMS
Selecting the right caliber
Desired effect without expending ammo
Proper use of hostages


ULTIMATE VICTORY
After you have passed everyone and arrived at the Atlantic Ocean, do not despair, there are still the Europeans.

My understanding is that this course is mandatory for all Bowtie drivers.

It seems like every encounter I have had lately with an agressive driver they are driving a Chev Truck SUV or Astro van.

Problem with the "rice" drivers, is that all I hear is a bumble bee coming down the road, and I don't see them till it is too late, and I end up getting into trouble because I merge on them.
