“Ja maar ge snapt het niet!!! Gij rijdt 120 en ik MOET ABSOLUUT MINSTENS 128 kunnen rijden want correctie en zo en die laatste 100 meter ga ik ECHT niet liggen taffelen achter zo’n mongool gelijk gij ze!”
– De mensen die dit doen.
Nog een favoriet zijn bumperklevers. Ja Renaat, ik ga 80 euro boete betalen zodat gij drie seconden eerder op uw werk zijt.
Als het kan ga ik aan de kant natuurlijk, maar geregeld gebeurt dit in volle spitsuur met volle rijvakken. Ik ben niet ‘traag’ omdat ik meer dan een autolengte tussen mij en mijn voorligger laat.
I know it as ”the Luxembourg SUV manoeuvre“, but, yeah, often seen on Belgian highways.
I am the opposite driver, 400m till exit? Better stay behind this truck going 90 so I don’t miss it!
Just had this happen to me. Well, sort of. I was driving 60-ish in a 70, because a big line of cars in front of me were also doing 60. But apparently I kept too much space between me and the cars in front, so the car behind me passed me while honking, then merged between us, braked violently to also start driving 60, and then few seconds later braked more to take a right exit.
Why!?
Could also extend the full white dividing lines so they pass that as well, preferably as close to the concrete divider/rail/water drums.
Also no indicators of course
Honestly think Belgians drive like assholes because they are largely unhappy and that is the only way they can release
5 seconden gewonnen om even later weer gelijk aan het rode licht na de afslag te staan…
High five, mate! The same ones riding at 20 km/h when snowing…
This is nothing. My ABSOLUTELY FAVORITE thing is when I am driving on the main road and constantly have to break because the side street on the right has the right of the way. That’s right folks: the side street has the right of the way! Fucking unbelievable.
I live in Beijing and this is a very common maneuver.
Aren’t you allowed to overtake from the right if the road you are driving on is dedicated as an off-ramp?
No offense but the dutch really do have better roads and drivers. Belgians are crazy on the roads
Your windscreen is dirty mate
Got to make the everyday commute a little interesting some way or another you know…
As usual, everyone in this thread is an excellent driver, adhering to the rules at all times, while being terrorised by everyone else on the road.
I know it as the “totally normal way of driving in Madrid”
UGH, I hate when this happens. My standard answer is always ‘Ma kunde gij nu ni 2 seconden wachten!! Nurk!’
Met bijhorend handgebaar (not the one you think, no)
This is nowadays, with emergency braking systems fitted on SOME cars, especially an issue. I have been in this situatie, driving a car with such a braking system. There was an unsuspecting mother with two kids driving behind me (I check my mirrors a lot) near the exit Beveren on the E17 heading towards Ghent. Out of nowhere (he probably came from the left lane, blind spot in the mirror) this BMW tuned car passed between me and the truck in front of me towards the exit. The moment my car noticed him, it wanted to go full on emergency brake. In a split second I realized this and hit the brake first so that the manual override prevented the full on brake that the CPU would have decided. To this day I still wonder what would have happened if I didn’t override and the car suddenly stopped. Behind the women driving behind me there was a truck. Maybe the woman would have been able to brake in time, but the truck behind her was driving too close. He would have hit her car and pushed her into my car.
You could argue that cars should keep distance, but that distance is based on “normal circumstances” and “human reactions”. A CPU is just too fast, even in situations where normal distance is respected.
Thats cuz the belgian drivers mentallity is probably that the guy is driving 90 km/h when the upcoming driver, who takes the exit, is driving the normal speed of 120km/h.
Then the 90km/h guy acts like the 120km/h guy is the crazy one, when in reality the 90km/h is the real fool.

needs more potholes, a middle lane driver and 2 trucks overtaking each other
Het probleem is me duidelijk, je rijdt niet op het middenvak /s
Those people probably havent seen this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CKNQG6pSYig

It’s called ” the BMW “
