One time my friend with the stealth and I were out 'killing rice' which isn't very hard in his C5-killing stealth TT....

Anyways, we put a tennisball under the rear windshield wiper, and when a ricer would tail us, we'd turn it on and the ball would fly back and hit their windshield [rofl].

That reminds me of a driving prank my friend used to do in high school. On cars from the 60s and 70s, the windshield washer jet was a thin piece of metal tube that you could bend to adjust where it sprayed (today it's those molded plastic buttons).

He bent his jets up so the water stream would go over the top of the car and spray the car behind him. At traffic lites we would spray the guy behind us. One time another friend was following on a motorcycle, we blasted him!!

On the highway I can do the same thing with my washer fluid [:)] It's much fun when you have some jerk tailing you!

When I was in high school we would cruise the neighborhood for someone that was walking, kill the engine, roll up on them (they never heard us) then using a bull horn scream AAAAAAAHHHH. Man that was funny - you should have seen them jump!

MrElussive the stories you post on here make me stop wondering why medical insurance costs are so high. It certainly appears that you are a menace on the road [are you the same guy who was trying to find a good lawyer to keep your drivers license?]

I'm not sure whats worse... your driving or braggin on public boards about it.

I fully expect to get flamed for this, but there seem to be a great deal of people on this board who seem to get great pleasure from driving dangerously at high speeds and getting away with it.

I don't think you'll get flamed, and I've NEVER heard Emile brag about anything.

The entire thread is about 'dumb things you have done'. Nobody is bragging. I sure am not. I absolutely DOUBT you drive perfect and have done everything the way you should.

Well I do have a pretty crazy driving history, but I'm 20 years old and the accident that occured to me last Friday was my first traffic accident and it was pure mistake (not from speeding or anything deliberately stupid like that)....that's certainly a much better driving record than any other average teenager, especially considering I drive 12K-15K miles per year whereas the average teenager drives for a year or two in high school for a little bit and then goes off to college, doing minimal driving throughout those 4 years.
And no, I was not the guy who was trying to find a good lawyer to keep my drivers license. I have 0 points on my license as we speak. I have been extremely stupid in the past and then this "Driving Confessions" thread came up and I absolutely love it. When I express my stories, they are simply "confessions" and not "bragging rights"....the events I have posted and will post on this thread have served as learning experiences and I'd rather be able to talk about them on a forum with fellow members than hide in shame when the opportunity comes up. Although I must admit, I am still hesitant about explaining the real story of what happened with my spin-out. That was just not cool on my part...I took the car to redline in first gear and all of a sudden I experienced this insane rush (I guess adrenaline) and I just didn't want it to stop. The feeling was so much better than riding a very intense rollercoaster and I got carried away but nobody got hurt there either.
So the answer is no, I am not the one who is responsible for your high medical insurance costs.

Dude, let me change everything and brag, wait, lets not do that or my luck if you want to call this will run out. But in the last year my dad got a speeding ticket for doing almost 100 in a 65 (lawyer got it off) and then today a ticket for weaving in and out of traffic while being late for work, can you imagine SIX points for that? The cop was nice and gave him a ticket for tail gating, FOUR points. WOW. From this you can figure out what my luck is, and he was worried about me.
