Almost smashed the Z today (Yes, VDC was on)

Wow. Strange day. Just found out that the parents of a friend got rear-ended right about the same time as I had my close call. It doesn't end there, same

Wow. Strange day. Just found out that the parents of a friend got rear-ended right about the same time as I had my close call. It doesn't end there, same friends wife was almost run in to on the highway by someone not paying attention while on a cell phone. She had to slow quickly for traffic and saw someone coming up quick in the rear view. Luckily there was no guard rail and she pulled off into the grass. The car stopped just short of the car she was behind. Damn good situational awareness on her part.
The parents are ok. Just minor damage.

Be careful out there. It is a crazy start to this holiday weekend.

Didn't you get the memo? It was National Dips*** Driver's Week. First week of the month. Everyone gets their welfare checks and has to hurry to get to the bingo parlor.
(you're not picking up on the bitterness are you?)

....Yesterday. 4 lanes goes into 3 lanes. Dipcrap people wait 'til the last minute to move over. Girl moves over at the LAST possible moment. Pulls over, starts texting. Texts some more. Lights cigarette. Leans over (while car is moving) to pick up something on the passenger's side (probably her frickin' cellphone). Swerves drastically, then swings into the next lane to the left. Meanwhile man in car (me) whose car is worth 5 times what her car is worth, sits courteously in the lane that he is supposed to be in while NOT talking on the phone or anything else.

< getting sick of the majority of the people that have zero courtesy.
