Patience can be a bitch, but I have never been scolded for being too patient.

Yeah, being patient stinks .....but it can save your ass most of the time.

I've passed mutiple cars before... but ONLY on a LONG straight stretch of road with no turn offs. I also make sure i give my self room incase one of the cars pulls out to pass with out looking in his/her mirrors.

it is dangerous though... and i'd never do it on a road I didn't know...

you guys are missing the point... even if the jeep WASN'T using the turn signal... passing two vehicles on a road with turn offs is dangerous and stupid.

yes the Jeep should have used his turnsignals (if he didn't) but it's the riders fault completely. IMO

I agree Ebbs. You cant pass 2 cars at 1 time.
