Kind of caught me off guard.

Ok so I was driving on the highway last night around 1:30 no one was on the road. It was pretty relaxing but I was tired as sheet and just wanted to get home. As I'm driving along all of a sudden 4-5 cars just zoom by me like at an insane speed prob 150+ the only one I could make out was the Mercedes SLS and some kind of lambo. I had to slap myself around a few times to make sure I wasn't asleep lol.

Had that shit happen to me with cars on the road around 10pm on the Brooklyn Queens Expressway.

They were going so fast my car shook. I hope they hit some major potholes and broke their axles.

One early morning around 5am, I was heading to Frankfurt on the A5 to catch a flight home. All I can tell you about what went by me was that it's headlights made the Sun look like a candle and I think it was red.

I drive the A5 all the time and it is unlimited right outside the airport, 911 turbos and S8's are what usually makes me look like I am standing still (which sometimes in a Opel 1.5td is pretty much true and I have trouble passing the trucks limited to 80 km/h in the slow lane!)

This is normal on the Autobahn! Usually cars in the left lane are so fast, I can't tell what they are!

Garage List
Back in my dumb and stupid days, I was driving back to my parents from college and a civic, eclipse and some ford zoomed by. I dropped it and went after them. When I caught up, I was doing about 135 and the ford lost control right in front of me. He swerved right and then left and right into the median. I had to swerve across all 4 lanes to the right to avoid the car when it bounced off the median. Scary shit. Lesson Learned on my end.
