to be honest i hate people like you crawling around at 5 mph, just put your car at a normal suitable heights for the road and stop delaying other people on the road

Nothing wrong with overtaking if it's safe

might need to get one of those, couldnt compromise raising the height, it would have to look like a truck to clear anything here

One of the things I hate about having a lowered car I usually end up pulling over if I've got a cue behind me as I crawl over them.

Then why are you on a modified car site?
But yes, i hate it with a passion. It doesn't hurt you to hold back a couple of seconds to wait for someone in a lowered car who doesn't wanna smash the shit out of their sump get over a speed bump. Are you an ambulance? do you have flashing lights? no? then you can wait. Do you get pissed off when an old lady is walking across a zebra crossing and taking longer than everyone else because she's old and decrepit? Everyones so caught up in a rat race nowadays, just chill the fuck out man.

aye its a blag. if its the mini speed bumps that fit between your wheels i have to go one side up, one side down. or if the roads clear i can go 30 right inbetween both lanes. but i tend to look like a mad man. s'ing all down the road haha.
the ones on the way to Adam_B 's shop are a proper cunt

Go over the speed bump diagonally, then they cant over take you
i usually pull over and let people past cause i crawl over them, sometimes have to go diagonally

an impatient guy in a picasso did this to me the other day. flashing me at the first set of bumps (close as fuck) sticking his fingers up at the second set of bumps (still tickling the hairs on the back of my neck)...
got to the 3rd set and i slowed rite down (practically stopped) so he went to go around me but didn't succeed against the mighty power of the baby valver once i got past the bumps

i do this, but its a proper twat at the bottom of my village cos they go diagonal across the road. not to mention the fact theres a shop rite next to them that people like parking on the double yellows

I get major rage at people when they do this to me. My road is full of bumps. And it takes me a while to get over them. Then you have some fuck nut in his audi giving it the biggen as he passes you!
