If you replaced Mercedes with "Utah Drivers" it would hit the nail right on the head!

grrrr
Sad thing is, I can think of a few vehicle types that this stereotype could fit...although I wouldn't have linked a Benz into this. Whatever...he's the one missing out, eh?

No offence I guess (was pretty pissed too) I could relate this to a few Jeep Cherokee drivers too that I've encountered in the past few days... (cutting people off, doing 60 in a 30!, etc.) BMW's.. to be honest though I have yet to see an MB driven recklessly here. Though I have in the past (not in the US) it's a joke

Put I have noticed every time it ever happens to me it is always an older person 70+ Same thing with BMW drivers. I do get cut off a lot for some reason |

It was funny, although I find those questions more accurately describe a lot of the SUV drivers around here, not the Mercedes crowd.

Yeah I think there was a typing error. It was supposed to say BMW driving test.

I can't remember the last time I saw a MB being driven unsafely, at least by anyone else! To me, a Benz going down the road just looks like it's doing what it's supposed to.

hehehe... I think that the site is pretty factual. Let me tell you guys, so far in my year of driving, I have seen more Mercedes run a red than any other car... and I mean, this is Texas, people can't drive, but those who own shiny new Mercedes just forget about driving and talk on their cell phones... when there is an accident its always some shiny S-class driving on the shoulder at 80mph to avoid traffic. Oh, and the best, when a nice new s500 pulls out in front of you while you are going 60, stops, then decides its better not to accelrate, and when I slam my brakes to avoid a collision, the driver just flicks me off and continues going 10mph... Its really wonderful. I mean, when people drive with me, they are surprised that I let people change into my lane, they are like... wait, you drive a mercedes, what are you doing? I used to think that BMW drivers were the pitts, but after driving for some time, I know its people who drive new Mercedes, maybe the cars comes with some kinda tuetonic mental complex that was excluded from earlier models...

Morons come in all colors and drive all sorts of vehicles!
MBs are prolific in Texas...as are lousy drivers with no driving etiquette whatsoever...
...put the two together and voila! Lousy-driving Benz owners! Perhaps as MB owners ourselves, we would be more apt to notice them more? As far as the tactics discussed on that site, I can include a fair share of SUV drivers, owners of large utility vans, cab drivers, ricers, F-body owners, etc. etc...
