my friend did that once and the lady behind him followed him all the way to a light where he stopped. she got out and started yelling at him that he did it on purpose. :screwy:

Yes... but I think faster and get mad at myself before the person behind me can toot at me. I have anger management issues... yes I just said that.

Not really. But yesterday I was driving back to school after eating. I was in a line at a stop sign waiting for people to go. When it was my turn I tried to go but drifted back real fast (cuz it was on a hill), I had thought I already put it in 1st but it was in neutral I guess. I was scared I almost hit the car behind me, but I didn't.

hahah, ya, that too. people look so shocked and i have gotten the finger for rolling back. lots of hills around here so it sucks. dont understand people giving me the finger. i just laugh at them. but its funny how they think you purposely roll back or something

this kinda relates to the other post about manuals and autos posted not too long ago. i drive manual and i try not to roll back, but sometimes do hehe. But i sometimes drive my dads benz, and itz auto, and think i hafta put the clutch in, then press the brake peddle hard and the car jerks haha. Then when im drivin my car right after, i sometimes stall when comin to a stopsign because i forget to put it into neutral haha.

If they get pissed off act like you're all flustered and try to furiously get the thing restarted but don't. Hell stall it another time or two for effect.
