Isn't that like part of the description of "chav"? As in "immature dick, who doesn't give a shit"?
Very true. I just have the problem that, they are 17+ and driving, you'd think they would have grown out of it by then.
Well, I'm 26 and from time to time I'm immature as well... Combine it with me being a dick most of the time and you get your general chav...
Some might say I'm still young, but then I think some people never grow out of it.

People do that in the USA too. Dumbass immature jerks. I've had NYC construction workers hoot and holler rude stuff at me, as well as any other female walking down the street simply because we're female. Most people here just consider the source and ignore it, I know I do. Guys in cars do the same thing, but they also yell confrontational stuff at guys on the street too, usually trying to provoke a fight.

Isn't being (badly) insulted better than being shot at? (ie. a real drive by)
Yes. We don't have drive by insults in America. We have a drive by. I would take a drive by insult over a drive by anyday.
Actually, we do. Look up "Drive By Insults" on Youtube. Not only is that America, but it's apparently near me, as I recognize some landmarks.

youd get shot in America
Only if you insulted a member of another race. Or if you insulted a white trash person. Most people are generally accepting to their own race though.

This happens a lot in crap towns in Pennsylvania, where the people have long toenails and nothing better to do than try on shoes at payless and yell indistinct slurs at passerby. Usually I'm sure it's something quite pleasant like "I enjoy your calming visage and wish to know you and your family with greater clarity", however since I've only ever caught a few syllables of what's being said I cannot be sure.

I've had a lot of experience in this field so I'll share some anecdotes:
Back in my not-so-long-ago days at high school I went to a school which had another school about 2 blocks down. My school was an art school known for its eccentricity and its large homosexual population. Their school was a catholic school with a much larger population and thus a greater population of assholes. The story goes that one day some friends of mine and I were walking to a nearby grocery store at lunch when a group of guys from the other school drive up to us, stop and say: "Hey....... fuck you!" They go through all that effort and that's all they thought of. We found it humorous. Moreso after my buddies tagged the shit out their truck.

I also had a lot of experiences with this when I was a street punk. I had a trihawk and large leather jacket with 300+ studs in it. Anyway, people thought it was funny to drive by me and yell things like: "Only drugs could make you do that to your hair!" Which I found funny as well considering that I did quite a few drugs at the time.

It strikes me that people who yell those insults out of their cars aren't particularly creative or intelligent so its best just to ignore them.

Ah, this has been happening to me forever. I'll never forget the first time it happened though. I was walking home from school one day, and these assholes drive by, attempting to insult me with something completely illegible. Well I guess they found out that I didn't hear them, so they turned around and did it again, but this time the passenger opened his door as they drove by (to increase his douchebag level I presume). The diver jerks the wheel for some reason as the other dude opens the door, causing him to fall out and faceplant right in the concrete. I call the police, explain what happened and walk away.

I have very little tolerance for chavs - their insults are hardly very imaginative or original.

DIRTY REDHEAD.

Oh, thanks for letting me in on the colour of my own hair, you morons.
I had no idea there was a correlation between hair colour and hygiene...

Your lucky if all you get is insults. Im reformed now but in the past Ive been known to shout things like get a job to students, plus much worse. Me and my friends have also done drive bys with burgers, milkshakes or water bombs. Ive also soaked many a pedestrian/student with a well planned accelleration through a puddle.

When someone insults me from a car it makes me giggle. I know theyre having fun and I get a flash back from a past act of douchebaggey. Its all part of the fun of motoring.

Is that what the hell it is? To me it just sounds like 'blEhreah', it's so damned idiotic, but I could care less because I can't hear what they are saying to me.

I do not know if this is a cultural thing, but here in the UK its fairly popular. Basically a chav/boy racer will drive past someone and shout an insult at them as they drive past. Most of the time it doesn't even work because the person being shouted at is listening to their ipod/the driver is going to fast so you only catch a few syllables of what they are shouting. Its not even decent insults, when I get it they shout "Get a haircut", which is just silly since my hair doesn't hurt them at all.

Its victimless sure, but I find the activity very immature, if there's one thing I expect drivers to be its mature! Watch the road, not the path looking for Otaku's/goths/girls! Is this a UK only thing? What has been shouted at you, if anything?
That doesn't happen in America, possibly because civilians can own guns, so fucking with random people isn't really a good idea in a bad neighborhood.

Usually it's a descriptive, like dirty blonde.
I dont really think about hair colour, more promiscuity and willingness to perfom what the Sun newspaper refers to as an "unnatural sex act", when someone talks about a dirty blonde

We yankees like to throw that middle finger in the air. It's called the bird. A classic insult that goes beyond words and can be heard from hundreds of yards away.

People simply honk their horns at passers-by and laugh if they flinch. Its pathetic.
That is a classic. Big fan favorite. The one up to that one is hitting that puddle just perfect to drinch the pedestrian and the horn to give him that double WTF!

One time, a girl called me a fagot from a school bus as it was passing by. Yeah that's original. If you're going to insult me, think of something that has not already been beaten to death with a big ol' whacking stick.
That is a rough one. Nothing worse then having your masculinity insulted by a random chick.

One time it happened when I was with my otherhalf - So naturally I was pissed off, then their car broke down when they stalled a couple of feet on. Me punching them in the face ensued.
That is the equivalent of stumbling upon someone that is in the process of keying your car. Consider that a gift from the gods.

Another entertaining vehicular past time is done on a Friday/Saturday night.

When you see people trying to flag down a taxi to get home, slow down and indicate like youre going to pick them up, watch them get their hopes up, then shout something funny as you speed off. Even better when its winter, wet and cold.

With this amount of fun and japery provided by a car I dont understand why everyone doesnt drive.

Has anyone told you that you are an asshole with no life? You get your jollies by fucking with innocent people who are just trying to live their lives. You are a sad pathetic being the represents a massive social sickness within our society.
