LOl some of the shit you guys do sounds just straight up asking for an accident.

In chicago we hav a lotta busses on 2 lanes per side steers.  So if I see someone weaving, and a bus coming up at an intersection, I'll just sit in the left lane, wait for some *ss to pull up behind me and try to pass me on the right, then I just keep pace with them and they will either give up, or nearly rear end a bus and get stuck for like 2 minutes. 

it's not dangreous for me tho, just them

LOL....busses can be your best friend sometimes!

I don't know if Jaguar has this feature on any of their cars, but I know Volvo and Porsche have it.  I have a rear fog light.  It's just a really bright bulb in the left taillight.  Used for foggy driving through the Alps or something I guess...not much use for it in California.  Anyway, I love that one when I have people ride my a$$ at night...especially the big pickups that get right up on you and their headlights are right in your mirror.  I switch on the fog and just stay in front of them.  I've had friends tell me it annoys the piss out of the...especially cuz it's bright red and just on one side...

Here's a little vid of a guy following me through some canyons....later he was complaining about it to me.  LOL (don't watch if you get motion sickness)

Ya...that's the Southern CA 3rd Gen Eclipse group I still meet with.  I think I mentioned that less than 1/2 of the still drive Eclipses.  I was following a G35, which I kept backing way off to give me some running room...I could've ran him off the road several times.  In front of him was a MK IV GTI with a 100 oct tune and some other mods...ahead of him was a WS6 Trans Am.  The guy filming was a friend of a member in his 240sx with some mods.  I think he thought it was a drift car.

I wonder why they put the rear fogs in both the tail lights on the X, all the other cars i c only have it on one. Although i do like that its in both, but i guess the people behind probably dont

Hey 04.........its more common than not to have 2 fogs over here rather than one. Again, I'm generalising, but, usually its the cheaper cars that only have one foglight.
Personally, I 2 foglight as I think it " evens" up the car, lookin from the rear, obviously its doubly as effective when in fog and or poor visibility.

I don't know about the "cheaper" part of that Jim.  Not that I take personal offense by that. :P
I'm pretty sure Porsche does only 1 fog in the rear also...I saw a 911 turbo with one on.  I think it's more a matter of being able to differentiate between fogs and brake lights....with both tails having fogs, I'd imagine the brake lights would be less noticable...with only one on, when you hit the brakes it should force a standard reaction by the driver behind you.  Just a guess though.
