Stupid people, think they win the race and turn on flashers...
Some people, while waiting at a redlight this RAV4 was creeping up, I creeped up a little too because I thought it was green while I was admiring at these Si's mirrors, light turns green, the guy accelerates quickly while I was being a nice driver so I let go at 3K RPM, than the guy cuts me off without signalling (1/4 car length) and turns on his flashers, I than use my wonderful hyper white high beams while this guy was using his flashers until the next light, we both turn left, he goes really slow (like 10-15km) until the next stop sign. Oh man, I wish I knew I was racing him, else I would gave it a WOT and let vtec scream. Some people

lease: haha. mine was more stupid
Similar to your story and it was also a Rav4. At a red and a Rav4 beside me, light turns green and i accelerate quickly. I was about 7 car lengths in front and i maintain 80km for a good 50 metre.
Oddly, he accelerates to at least 120 km and flies by me. lotsa idiots around nowadays.

You gotta be kidding me...
That means your car just got whooped... thank you is usually done by hand gestures aside from the 1 finger salute.
I got a story like that too...
Driving to Square One with my 11 year old nephew and some old VW golf I think it was was just driving beside me. Let's me get ahead a car length and then guns it right beside me. (I'm just cruising along normal driving cause 1) there were alot of cars around so it's impossible to drag, and 2) my freaking nephew was in the car... )
He keeps at it for a couple of lights and I din't pay attention to him, until those freaking hazards came on when he decided to get in front of my car....
(NO YOU DIDN'T)
I just woke up, all grumpy and shiet so I lost it... I tailed right up to his *** while he tried to lose me by cutting cars off. I didn't care, if there was a half a car distance, it was more than enough for me to get in... d/shifted to 2nd gear a few times and afterwards blew right past him and left him in the dust.... **** decided to hide behind another car when I the road got clear ahead of us and by this time I was already a car length away from him... lucky I was nice enough not to turn on my hazards to rub it in his face.

flashes his highbeams at you, it means there's a cop coming up.

ie... last night I raced a Silver RSX type S and a White RSX type S along burnhamthorpe in front of the YMCA and the White one eventually turned on his hazards.

Do you guys turn on your hazards when there's a sudden slowdown on the freeway? for example, i was going down the 403 from york u. then suddenly, near the part where it splits to 401east/west, the traffic was at a standstill but before that i was going around 120kph and had to brake hard to like 20kph, while doing that put on my hazards to warn the dood behind me to brake

LOL, drive it like you stole it only before an oil change. Afterall wasnt Honda recognized for high-revving engines hehe, I think ivtec goes on whenever you press the pedal hard, not like a specific RPM range like the older technology, but than I don't even know when its on, time for a vtec light.
