  • Same car, almost hit it TWICE

    I was on my way to work when this idiot pulled some crazy BS on me. I was driving through a residential area and stopped at a stop sign. Now, I looked both ways and saw this gray SUV coming, so naturally I waited til it passed. Now, there was NO way that guy didn't see me as I pulled out and got behind him. I'm in a big honkin' truck.

    SCD: Sucky car driver
    Me: Moi

    Okay, the area we were in was a bit desolate--not much traffic usually and it's almost like an alley but not exactly. It's an area behind a restaurant (the place is to the left of this area) and to the right is some market and infront of both of us there is a light.

    The SCD suddenly pulls his car to the right. I think, okay, he's going to make a right turn... So I slowly creep into the left lane while he was in the right. All of a sudden SCD made a hard left almost smashing into my car! I would have T-boned him. He was slightly more infront of me but didn't use a blinker AND did it like his life depended on it.

    I slammed on the breaks and honked my horn. My heart was beating a million miles an hour. THEN just as I think I am safe the asshole starts to back up!!! I haven't moved due to being scared and the JERK backs up! I hit the horn again and had to make a really hard right turn to try and get out of the way.

    Now, his reasoning?? I finally get of his way and make it to the light where I sit there and see asshole get out of his car to another car and kiss someone goodbye. WTF was it worth almost killing me to kiss someone goodbye!?

    I'm still shaken up from my last accident and this moron pulls that shit on me!? I was angry the whole way to work.

    I'm always getting people ahead of me pulling across to one side then turning a corner the other way - in racing, this is called a Scandinavian Flick, and at high speed it allows you to get the back out a bit & turn faster. However on the highways & byways, and in the middle of town, it won't do you a damn bit of good unless you're in a huge vehicle that genuinely can't make it around a nearside turn without dragging the rear wheels over the kerb. People keep doing it to make offside turns, or even to go around roundabouts... WHY?!?! It only annoys the drivers who could be passing you!
