What's up wirh NJ Beemer drivers?
Lately, I have been working in NJ. Twice in one week I have had the same thing happen and in both cases the offending dip-chit was a NJ BMW driver.
4-lane highway. I am in the right lane stopped at a red light. There is a right turn lane to my right that is empty. The light turns green and some dumkopf in a BMW comes screaming out of nowhere up thru the turn lane and then blitzes into my lane like it is legal to do so. The first time, it was a 528, today it was a 850. In both cases they took a high speed run at the light and ripped thru on the right in the turn lane and then illegally cut left back across my bow into the highway. The first time, I chalked it up to a duma$$ in a BMW, but today it happened again. What up with that? Do they think they have some extra permission to act stupid in public?

Bmw's is the luxury brand that tends to bring in a younger demographic. There usually ricers that have gotten older and made more money, so they decide to buy a BMW.
They have a nicer car, but their mentality hasn't changed. Go to e46fanatics and you'll understand what i mean.
Mercedes are usually driven by older people, that usually doesn't have that fast and the furious mentality.
I'm not saying this is with all bmw owners, but their usually the ones you see driving on the road in a newer model bmw weaving in and out of traffic.

I think its just a matter of how many f'ing BMWs are in NJ. There are like the f'ing plague. Everywhere. I guess for me I wouldn't go buying a car that every other person on the street has... thats just me.
I've had a couple BMWs try and act stupid on the highway with me...the end up looking stupid. Its just me and my slow SRT6.
