I almost got into a 60mph broadsides wreck today. Friggin' fuckwad tried to merge across 2 lanes. We missed by maybe a couple mm, and then only because my vehicle is very responsive, and I responded in time. So the fucker falls behind me, I flip him off (obviously), and then brakecheck him. Slammed on the brakes doing 60, nice plume of smoke from my rear wheels, guy swerves around me, we're both flipping each other off and scowling of course. What was funny was that right afterwards I noticed that the previously packed highway was clear for at least a mile behind me.

It also appeared that he had his GF in the car with him... I hope she dumps his sorry ass.

Damn assholes... I swear I'd've shot the bastard if I had had the option... It's people and events like this which make me want weapons on my car (read: autocannons on the sides).

I hear that you can get a nice 25mm cannon turret off an old M2 Bradley fighting vehicle for cheap. Heck, a ma deuce up top would work in this case.

Seriously dude, don't tempt me, I was already talking about getting some mods done to my car involving flip out side-mounted autocannons...

A Blue Steel nuclear warhead would do nicely...

If it helps you feel any better, I was cut off on the way to work today. Buddy was in the lane to my right (and only allowed to go straight) but makes a left turn in front of me. Almost rammed his driver's door in.

This reminds me of the stupid bitch who raced me for the on ramp for no apparent reason at all...

This twat sticks her head out the open window and mouths something off at me (obviously I can't hear a thing at speed) and accelerates onto the freeway. I get on after her and watch this bitch attempt to maneuver around the cars infornt of her. She ended up having to dive onto the shoulder and go aroound the cars form there.

Seriously fucked up bitch. Me? I just laughed and accelerated in the proper lane toward Houston.

Oh yeah, and another guy who raced me ofr the on ramp.

I braked to get behind him and let me go, and he brakes *with me*

*Then* he brakes again while I am behind him and continues to enter the freeway.

This is the shit that happens here in Houston. Be warned.

Man, what kind of freaks live in Houston (besides you, of course )
The only problem I had was when this old guy pulled out in front of me into traffic from a mall parking lot. Nearly damned creamed him good. (Thank you Ford for putting good brakes on my car. )

From what I have been told and read (and seen), Houston, Washington DC and Los Angeles are among the top 3 cities that have the worst drivers.

Bunch of idjots around here...

I remeber Los Angeles.
Aside from all the insane drives, everyone has their own minigun and RPG.
One wrong finger and it's a nuclear wasteland.

PS, Oh, look at that, post 1500.
Joyous...

And yes, I have been shot at too. 5 weeks after I left active duty with the army. What irony!!!

Yeah, spend 20 years in the Army, never get shot at once, go to Los Angeles and it's like a war.
Course I can't really say that..since I was shot at during my time in the USAF...mostly by pissed off Iraqi soldiers.

Here's to us then...

I fucking hate traffic and car's, started jogging to work beggining this year.

At it for the 3rd mounth and I feel better, less stressed up when I get to work and it really helps me losing some of that extra weight.

Now I just wait for the summer so I can break out my bike.

I'm right there with ya, Ming. I live in Houston and the drivers here are some of the sorriest shit stains I have ever encountered. Thankfully, my finely honed reflexes (thank you Daytona!) have kept me out of harms way.

My favorite thing? The fucking clueless fucktards who start to merge into your lane....when you're RIGHT BESIDE THEM! Assholes...get off the fucking cellphones! I refuse to die because you can't fucking wait to talk on the phone when you get home!

Driving in Europe (germany), Korea and other parts of the country nelped me.

And all of the remedial training the military gave me when I switched posts.

And the Defensive Driving courses...

Having flown a fighter jet also helps.
Too bad my reflexes have dulled.

I dont know about houston, but down here in south florida we have a whole buncha insane drivers. and Im originally a new yorker!

Lucky... I'd love to fly one, just I know they won't let me because I have less than perfect eyesight (I can't see the last 2 rows on the chart very well), but given the chance to show off my tendoncy to see things at distance that no one else does, and my insane reaction time (partially responsible for my NOT getting into that wreck today...) would make me valuable, but as I said, I've heard they won't give a person the chance simply because they can't see perfectly... And there's no friggin' way in hell I'd ever fly a helo... I like wings thank you...
