Top Ten Highway Villains Page 2

 

3. Funeral Processions

You cannot drive past a funeral procession on a highway and not come out on the other side happy. Speeding past car after car full of miserable faces, and then looking like a complete disrespectful jerk while doing it is too terrible of an experience for anyone to be happy once it's over.

2. HUMMER H2

Ever been at a concert and seen a very large person have to shuffle their way through the crowd? That is what a Hummer H2 looks like weaving through traffic. It is too big for just about every road on the planet, and so is the driver's ego. You cannot drive a HUMMER H2 without appearing to be cocky.

1. Honda Odyssey

The Honda Odyssey earns its top spot because of all the cars that are merging in tight spaces without turn signals, merging then braking, going below the speed limit in the outermost lane or any other sort of mildly annoying highway maneuver are nine times out of then driving a Honda Odyssey. It is a complete mystery to me. Maybe it is the distraction of children whining in the back. I hope I never face the day when life hands me quadruplets and I have to eat my own words, because chances are it is always an Odyssey because there are so many out there on the road. That means it is probably the best minivan for the family man. Maybe the real number one highway menace is children...

  2. And don't forget the other types of highway villain -- that would be tailgaters, right-lane passers, and those who never signal!

  8. i'm sorry but funeral processions do NOT below on a highway. processions are inherently slow and highways fast. i saw one once go through 280 and 101 (san jose) during rush hour. i'm sorry for the family but they nearly caused a dozen more funerals so screw them, they are the true a$$holes.

  9. Anybody that drives a Subaru is a douche. That's just the way it is. 9 times out of 10 if I'm stuck behind a car going to slow or failing to signal or driver on a cell phone, it's a Subaru. The Forester is the worst, but this applies to all Subarus across the board.
