I was wondering how long it would take for this to be posted on MTC :ROFLMAO:
Obviously our licensing process is too lenient - there are SO many terrible drivers on the road.

I see more and more stupid driver scenarios every day. Seems less enforcement taking place and who can blame the cops for being more hands-off. This Maverick was just begging to be T-boned. Idiot. Doesn't he know how difficult it is to get parts? "Body" parts even more so.

Maybe he's looking to donate his.

This happened to me yesterday. Here in Asheville we get tons of tourists who are lost and making bad panic decisions at the wheel. So a right turn from the left lane is pretty normal here. Turning signals? What are those?

A few years ago I witnessed an accident a bit like this at an interstate exit. There was one travel lane at a 4-way with a big shoulder on the right. Person in the travel lane had no signal. Another driver pulled up on the right shoulder to turn right, and the guy in the travel lane turned right into him. I'd love to know who was assigned fault for that one. Betcha the guy in the travel lame swore to the trooper his signal was on. I was a bad citizen and didn't stick around as a witness.

I'm in the Orlando area so I see bad drivers all day long whether its Floridian or tourists. I always hate the people that cut across three rows of traffic to get to the turn lane because they are going to miss a turn and "God forbid I wait for the next light or U-turn to turn around"

You really weren't seeing that Marverick. It's someone's 2022 that has yet to be built so it must be from the future or something.

I lived in Kissimmee for 21 years. My favorite was always the car with Mom, Dad and four kids crossing 3 lanes of 192 to get the the McDonald's. There is a fast food restaurant EVERY 300 FEET out there!!! You used to be able to tell the rental cars by the license plate and could avoid them.

Yeah all the rental cars used to say sunshine state. Then criminals noticed that too and they got rid of it

I loved the imagery and sound of "chirp the tires", but in all seriousness, can the tires be 'chirped' in either/both of the Maverick engine versions? Picking my Hybrid up in a few hours [400 days from Order to Drive-off, for those keeping tracks of such things...] and with this potential option, chirping the tires in the big ( mostly empty) lot on the way out would be memorable, at least for me.

Don't think the Hybrid can break the front wheels free on dry pavement (but the tryin' will be fun...)

I don't know if the Hybrid can, but my EB sure can!

Texas has gone to online training and parents doing the real work. We’ll have generational poor driving until we change it!

It's amazing how many people are in full fight or flight mode when driving. So many people are just in sheer panic the whole time when they drive.

How dare you ask me to pay attention to where I'm going or more than 50 feet in front of me! I didn't know my lane was ending, how can you expect me to pay attention to the road!
