How you drive reveals more of your own personal ethics and regard for other people. It has nothing to do with politics. Not all liberals nor all conservatives are the same. I have met rude, obnoxious and self-centered people from both ends of the political spectrum. I've also met considerate, caring people from both ends. As far as cars driven, that has more to do with the priorities of the driver. Those who have more money than sense buy really expensive cars regardless of politics. I've seen just as many conservative bumper stickers as I have seen liberal ones on Hummers and econo-boxes alike. The idea that all liberals drive economy or "green" cars and all conservatives drive expensive or "gas guzzler" cars is just a sterotype with no basis in reality. Same goes for driving habits. I've seen more of a correlation between where a driver is from with driving etiquette than politics. Drivers who grew up in the country tend to be less rude than those who grew up in the city (though it doesn't hold true 100%).

Every one of those could go either way, here's what I figure are going to be the unpopular choices, as a kind of a devil's advocate kind of thing.

None of those is really a political thing though, so I think you might just be looking for somebody to bash whichever side you dislike. Inevitably someone's gonna say that all conservatives are rich and wasteful and drive Hummers, etc. It's really all ethics and etiquette, as someone else said, so the "bad" side is gonna be whichever one you don't associate yourself with.

I'm not really sure what you're describing on A; you mean like who would wait and let someone pull out of a parking spot and stuff like that? I'll go with that.

a Conservative - they're thought of as planning things out moreso and thus leaving early; no worries about being late, just want everything to go smoothly until you get where you're going
b Liberal - opposite from a
c Liberal - they are thought of as showing off moreso
d Conservative - they are thought of as thinking more about economic stuff, saving money on gas and being all miserly and stuff

Our government and in particular our congress won't approve a funds. This keeps us in an enduring economic emergency. we are compelled to robotically bypass persevering with funds resolutions that truly pay for government devoid of any specific plan for spending interior of our ability. If the ongoing funds resolutions are actually not exceeded than government shuts down. this permits the prospect to attach riders to the resolutions. no you are able to refuse the determination or infantrymen wont be paid and medicare sufferers isn't cared for etc. they are able to attach something to it. no rely how nasty and no rely how vile by way of fact if congress would not bypass it or if the president would not sign than government shuts down and the folk scream bloody homicide. Monsanto is a attempt run. in the event that they are able to destroy out with undermining the form so as that Courts now not have the flexibility to end Monsanto even nevertheless the form of america ensures that they do than who is conscious what they'll do next. The shape now not ability a element. it incredibly is a ornament in a museum. we've been bending and ripping the form for years yet we've effectively bumped off the flexibility of the Courts to earnings and stability Congress and the administrative. it incredibly is a courageous New international the place regulation is on the marketplace and so the lives of voters. i don't know if GMOs are risky. i in my opinion doubt in the event that they are, yet while GMOs are risky there is not something you're able to do approximately it. The Courts have been muzzled and chained. And in the event that they are able to muzzle them for this they are able to do it for something. regulation now not works for us.

Your driving does reveal your political leanings. If you drive on the right hand side of the road, you are conservative. If you drive on the left hand side of the road, you are liberal...or you are in England.

I don't think there is a relationship between one's driving habits and one's political leanings. At least mine don't reflect the other.

A driver in that state as you describe could only reveal his hidden craziness!
