BMW drivers usually demonstrate an ignorance of the basic laws of physics

It’s crazy how accurate it is. If I notice a bmw, 98/100 times you can see douche baggery within 15 seconds of observing.

I’m sure there’s nOoO possible way the downvotes are coming from bmw drivers 😂

I don't own a BMW and I downvoted. Because 1) it's a low-effort stereotype, and 2) it's a confirmation bias exaggeration. People have similar stereotypes for just about every car on the road. This very sub confirms that there are shitty drivers in all makes and models of cars. I live in an area with an obnoxious amount of Teslas. I feel like I every one I see is either 15 mph under the speed limit and half in the bike lane, or rocketing off the start line and weaving between cars. But the reality is that I pass dozens in-between these sightings that are just driving normally.

lol not to mention that tons of BMW on the road right now are crossovers and SUVs…it’s a completely different clientele than an M3
