People really do suck. Today I was driving through south central Oakland and I approach a red light. This is a controlled and fairly busy intersection, so the car in front of me stopped, and I stopped for the light as usual and no one is behind me (yet). Then comes this green *****box Saturn speeding behind me and then when he realized the light was red and the cars in front of him were stopped, TOO LATE
. He ended up rear ending me at about ~3 MPH. I didn't see him from behind, but I felt a "push" and my car moved forward a little (my foot was on the brake when it happened). My first response is: "Crap!" and already being sick, tired and the weather being bad, I am not up to it to deal with this idiot. I just drive off when the light turns green, I switch lanes and next thing I know at the next stopllight, I'm parallel to this guy. I give him and his passenger the "WTF" look but the passenger just smiles and seems to be saying "we're sorry". Anyway, I continue to drive and pull over to inspect the damage. Thankfully there is not a scratch or bend in the bumper/rubber bumperette.
I am VERY happy about that. But still, PEOPLE SUCK!!!
End of Rant.
