Drive carefully Guys...

On the way to work this morning I was merrily cruising down the motorway thinking about how great life is and how lucky I was to be there in the right place at the right time when that young chick decided to... You know those sort of thoughts, when I suddenly noticed all the cars in front of me had stopped. Oh ****e, on with the brakes, lots of tire smoke, and stopped a couple of inches from the back of the car in front. Even a daily commute can be bad for your car's health.

yup....Friday coming home from work I was second car at the light to turn right. The light turned green, the first car went, I followed and here comes someone from the left running the red light. A quick stab and the brakes, hit the horn, and whip right to miss the driver in the Camry.

I hate people.

there is one light on the way to work where people try to turn left at green despite the people going straight that have the right of way.

A lot of times I see that someone is trying to turn left before I clear an intersection, I lay on the horn until he stops, and then clear the intersection reaaaaaaaaaaaaal sloooooooooooooooooow and stare them down. If they're in such a hurry that they insist of driving like an a$$, I feel it is my duty to make them wish they hadn't by making them even later

Do like I do, just don't drive. A guy recently asked me to come out to his house and give him an estimate for some work at 5PM. I just laughed. You take them early Sat morn or maybe, maybe 10AM week days or find some other frazzled, rude person who has just run the traffic gamut. Not me. I wonder what I am actually going to do with a street 911 once I finish it. Probably only let it out of the barn at 5AM Sun mornings.
