To the ///M5 Group,

I am continually amazed at the poor habits and technique of the drivers I must share our public roads. To generalize, I have seen a higher percentage of bad, lazy, and unaware drivers in certain brand/types of vehicles. Here’s a list of the top five. What have you seen?

Top Five Worst Drivers
1. Volvo
2. Saturn
3. Any SUV
4. Lowered Rice Burners
5. Big GM’s

What about Ferraris, Porsches, Lamborghinis, etc.? Unfortunately, the folks owning such cars are often the least likely to be qualified to drive them. The *REALLY* unfortunate thing is that they often *THINK* they can drive particularly well!

Amazing. I thought I was the only one who noticed that Volvo, Minivan and most SUV drivers were the worst (in that order).

Hey Alberto - I just hate "tailgaters" and people who apparently don't have turn signals in their cars -whatever car they drive!

MAVERICK · 21st February 2001, 14:11

I hate people who don't use their turn signals either on the highway or in the city. It makes me boil.

Here in Denver it is a tie between Mad Moms in Mini Vans and SUV pukes. They dodge in and out of traffic and cut you off like anything (Get the He** out of my way have a soccer game to get to!). Also a popular thing here is to drive a Ford Excursion like a mini sports car. Not only dangerous but iratating as well.

DON'T get me started about the Hyundai driving in the fast lane going up into the mountains >:

Happy driving guys!

Hi Guys,

I have heard Volvo dogged more than a few times on this board, WHY ?
They are great cars , I have a 94 940 turbo that was easily modified & really SCREAMS!! I mean SCREAMS!!
Of course my preference will always be BMW(In my garage the BMW’s out# the lonely Volvo), I just wish they’d offer a turbo on some of there smaller engines…or larger ones.

Gustav: You are from Sweden any comments on turbo bricks….

Ciao’
