Well, not driving a Hummer... But driving a new Lincoln Navigator.... I don't know if it's just because it's an SUV or what but I noticed when driving a big SUV I get cut-off a lot more often. I was driving the Lincoln yesterday on my way home from the store. I was stopped at a light with a Caddy CTS on my left. Light turned green and the Caddy and I both took off normally. Few seconds later the Caddy started drifting in my lane. I didn't honk or anything because I knew eventually the lady would see me (which she did). Then she decided to floor it and cut me off without signaling or anything. So I'm approaching another red light and the Caddy is already stopped up ahead. I switch lanes because I didnt want to be behing the Caddy because the light had just turned green and I didnt want to stop since the lane next to the Caddy was open. So I pass the Caddy and switch back infront of the Caddy because I need to make my right at the next light. I gave my signal and there was lots of distance between our cars as well so I didn't cut her off. So I guess that ticked her off or something, I don't know. She comes around me on my left and makes a totally illegal right turn for the only reason I can assume to be so she could get infront of me. She made the right turn as if it was a double turn lane when it was only a single all while there was also another car making the turn at the same time. So whatever. Then she ended up making the next same turn as me and I am right behind her again. I try to switch to the left lane to pass and out of no where she totally just swerves infront of me and starts driving in the middle of the lanes. Then, she slammed her breaks and went all the way into the left lane and then I finally swerved into the right lane and got away from the bitch. She had to have been around 50. So my point being, I don't have my Hummer yet but I still get a lot of ****. Before I drove an SUV I'll admit that I wasn't fond of there presence. But I am seriously so shocked at the kinds of things people are willing to do just because someone drives a big SUV. I have no other explanation as to why this lady was so aggressive with me. Needless to say though, this kind of stuff only happens to me when driving a big SUV.
