Funny you should say that Hymee....
My bad driving story does involve a Yellow RX8. Some fellow out on the country roads near us obviously got a rush of blood to the head.
I won't give details, but there did seem to be a distinct lack of respect for our maximum speed limit, and certain amount of over-enthusiastic overtaking and cornering. The sort of loud music that this sort of driver often favours could be heard too...
It's this sort of hooning that will get the car a bad name.
Unfortunately, it was me driving....
Should know better by now.

I'm sure we have all done it. Just remember we, as drivers, have a responsibility when we get behind the wheel, not only for ourselves (for which we might accept the consequences of high risks), but also to other road users and innocent 3rd parties.
I just would not like to get a knock on my door from someone in a uniform telling me I need to go identify a loved one...
Moderators have to be extremely upstanding members of the community

The 8 has a great horn. I use it a lot. In fact, I sometimes use it when I don't need to 
Anyway, vent your cathartic urges on the horn. You will feel better, I guarantee it!
