I think it is, however, it's women, whether they be white, black, green or lavender. I had one cut me off a couple of weeks ago on the bike talking on a cell phone. I pulled up next to her at the next stop light and ask her if she could talk on that phone with it stuck up her a**.

Actually was elderly Asian , doubt she was illegal. I just threw that in because they are the ones usually driving around drunk w/out insurance. I am not racist what so ever, I am more of a classist. Just have some class. Come to America legally, drive legally, carry insurance, watch out for bikes and act like an American and pull your own weight.

I don't know how to tell whether someone is on the country illegally or not by just looking at them. What are these special powers?

Any way, yesterday the driver of the pickup that passed on a solid yellow double line and made my jam on the brakes real hard to avoid a head-on collision appeared to be a middle-age white guy.

Fat boy, when you characterize people by attributing negative connotations to their skin color -thats racist.

...that's before you get to the "illegal" part.

And for the record, drunks are the worst drivers.

YOU ARE ALL WRONG!!! Lost tourists in Orlando are easily the worst drivers. I want to video tape them and post it on You Tube. I'd rather drive in a third would country than drive around the theme parks. They read maps, talk on cell phones, yell at their kids, eat McDonalds all at the same time while driving, then they realize they missed their turn, and swerve like they have some chance of making the entrance to Disney, taking out anyone in their way with their rented mini vans. Then many of them are from England, where they drive on the other side of the road, which adds into their confusion. Driving to the liquor store in the tourist area around Disney World is like trying to reach the exhaust port on the Death Star. Forget the Tail of the Dragon, try to survive the ears of the Mouse!!!

Wow, a lot of racist, sexist comments here. Simple, the worst drivers are the ones that don't pay attention or have road rage or are in such a hurry that EVERYONE needs to get off THEIR road. I drive 2 hours a day to and from work, all highway, and I can tell you that bad drivers come in all shapes, genders and races.
