Would like to give out my warmest thanks to the dumb, and thoughtless, bitch who just about ran me (and my wife) into the fucking concrete barrier on my way to Thunderdome tonight. As I’m coming up the 90 at the 219 merge she comes across my lane like it’s got her name on it. Apparently my horn (feminine as it is) in her left ear was not enough to disuade her from continuing the time honored I’m the only one on the road lane change move, but it was enough for her to hesitate…and then continue steering me into the divider! Just a driving tip honey…that shiny fucking thing on your door is a mirror for driving, not for your fucking makeup application. And that thing your head sits on that holds your bra strap is a SHOULDER!! Look over it once in a while! And if you do hear or see something over there…DONT CONTINUE YOUR FUCKING LANE CHANGE!! GET BACK IN YOUR OWN LANE! (capitalized to simulate rage fueled screaming) ---

I’m a little disappointed you didnt make a citizens arrest,if someone almost ran me off the road you bet your ass I would break out my retractable baton and handcuffs.The description you gave is quite detailed,I will keep my eye out for a female in a car and make the arrest myself if I spot her. ---

Ohhhhh, somehow I missed the “almost” part in his post :ham: A few things for sure that I’ve learned from driving Zs for years (and probably applies to any small car) is that: a) the factory horn BLOWS so don’t even bother using it b) Anyone driving next to you CAN’T SEE YOU unless they’re in another Z or a sports car ---

While I completely agree, this shit happens on the DAILY and is certainly not thread worthy. When your car ends up on the guard rail you can make a thread with carnage pics. 🙂 ---

What else do you talk about on sites like this if not daily events, sightings, etc. I thought that’s what this was for. And everyone else can say it’s no big deal and part of the everyday until shit happens to them. ---------- Post added at 07:58 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:56 PM ---------- Forgot about the “nose hairs” thread.
