Yeah, you just have to give these idiots a wide berth. Lucky for us, MINIs are small and can maneuver around them with relative ease. Last week I was driving home from Mid-Ohio and suffered hundreds of people simply driving dumb....

 

I had one yesterday when my dad and brother were with me in the car. I'm driving along taking my dad over to our storage area so he can take his motorcycle home (Honda CBR 600). Along the way this guy in a Minivan is driving unbelievably close to me. So I speed up a little bit (note that this is 45mph zone) to give myself some more room and he just stays close to me. He must've been in some hurry because I'm doing a bit over the limit for about a mile and he's still on my tail. Coming up is a right corner, so I drop it into 4th (without braking) and take the turn faster than he could and accelerate through the corner. He didn't bother me again.

I must admit I love taking corners faster than what the yellow sign says.
