Didn't that lead to end result of getting their asses kicked?

And they don’t put just one gigantic sticker on the back, they put multiple.
They're magnetic, or at least the one I put on my Hellcat are.
(Think about that a minute - "student driver" in a Hellcat.

Must be a life-long thing for them.

A distinction without a difference.

That’s funny on the Dodge. Nah, around here, they’re adhesive. Cheap asses too chintzy to spend extra for the magnetic versions.

400mI gotta be honest, If I had a quick Audi, I’d be driving fast as hell too.

An S6 with the 5.2L V-10 could put a smile on anyone, but if they had a 4 cylinder Toyota truck, Mayyyyybe they shouldn't camp out in the left lane or 'attempt' to pass while everyone else waits...
I don't think the type of car has much to do with lousy drivers.

Disagree.
First of all, of BMW drivers the 5 series are clearly worse; probably the same with Audi.
Here in CA if you see someone driving a Mercedes S-series sedan, it's an Asian woman 9 times out of 10; and they SHOULD have "student driver" on the back.

Point of order - Lance still has a single testicle. Hence the bike shop in Austin named "Juan Pelota."
Otherwise, solid rant. The Sun City in my area is a magnet for the slow to react drivers. The camp out in the left lane for two miles before their lefthand turn into Leisure World.
