news.bbc.co.uk — With rising gas prices, traffic jams and the ever-more ubiquitous parking attendant, drivers seem to have lost the joy of the open road. But problems with driving are as much in our head as on the road. Getting behind the wheel of an automobile can turn even the most mild-mannered person into an angry hothead. Learn how to enjoy driving again.

"Drivers of convertible cars are less likely to use their horns than others, he says, because they don't have the anonymity of being enclosed and hidden."It's quite the opposite for me on my motorcycle. I'm surprised I haven't worn out that horn because of people not paying attention, driving at night with no lights on, generally being morons, etc.And I also feel special for knowing who they're talking about when they say "Learn from Lewis".

That's what I thought too when I first got here, but it's actually the locals (the military has their fair share though). Okinawans LOVE to drink! It's not uncommon to see them stumbling out of bars at 7am while I'm on my way to work.

Wow virgule talk about making an ass out of you!Toyota supra: not sold anymoreAcura NSX: not sold anymoreMazda RX7: not sold anymoreHonda's type-R: not sold in NA, less and less model sold in EuropeNizzan Z: ok maybe that one... but compare a 350Z to a Mustang, Camaro or Challenger the 350 sucks both in performance and price!Now for NA brand:Sunbird: replaced by G5, a better productSundance: plymouth doesnt even exist anymore!Celebrity: canceled/ raplced by cavalier then cobaltFiesta: it's a great handling car, yet it's not sold anymoreNeon: canceled also, replaced with caliber which is not sportive but usefull (bigger size, chill zone, my gig, etc)And no Japan did NOT make the gentleman agreement, that was japan based only. When sold in NA they had to put the true hp of car on the window, as tested by american association. The gentlemen agreement was to LIMIT the number SHOWN to the public, the car by themselves had way more power then what they said. GM did the same thing with some camaro model to lower insurance cost, the car had more hp then what it was rated for. The skyline was the same: rated 280hp in a car that had between 340 and 400 (depending on model), the car HAD 340 not 280!!! Get a clue man it's f**king unbelievable what a jap fag can spit out!
