I was driving home from work the other night on one of the main roads. It's pretty deserted this time of night, so there's only a few other cars.
Now, I was driving the speed limit, maybe a little above it, but I wasn't speeding. It was a fairly fast speed though at 45-50mph.
I see up ahead a truck pulling to the end of a driveway of an apartment complex on the left side of the road. They stopped for traffic on their side of the road, and since they were facing straight, I pretty much knew they were going to end up on my side of the road at one point or another.
Well, the traffic on their side of the road passes, but by this time I'm seconds away from passing where the truck was. They started to pull out. It seemed like they thought better of it and stopped.
...And then they decided to go for it.
Ok...Maybe they'll pull into the right lane next to me, no one's there. That would be the smart thing to do.
Nope. They pull right in front of me. I literally had to swerve and slam on my brakes(I'm really surprised I stayed on the road actually). I honked and drove around them. They were barely accelerating too. They didn't even try to go faster even though they knew a car was coming behind them.
