FD causes yet another kill
So as I'm on the highway driving home, the usual happens- I get tailed by either a Honda or BMW M car, who for some odd reason seem to be the only cars who want to race. Well, just as I treat most other cases, I decide to decline todays challenge, an integra, and proceed to just pull quickly into the slow lane (bait), then let my speed dip a good deal just to piss him off (this works great when they get boxed in). After some short time, the integra finds an opening, pulls off and zooms past giving me a "WTF" look, as I exit the highway, round the offramp and merge with traffic.
I end up pulling into the middle of three lanes and take a look at some of the gas prices- my tank is mid point and my lane is going nowhere, albeit there is some light honking. Out of the corner of my eye about 3/4ths back, I notice a lady in a Ford Explorer staring at my FD...she moves up slightly in her lane of traffic, which gives us the oppurtunity to make eye contact. She gives me a polite wave, I nod back, as she continues to hover over her window/steering wheel looking down at my car. Well, no sooner than two seconds after as she is still eyeing the FD, I see her vehicle suddenly stop...BANG! Turns out she had ran into a van attempting to cross the three lanes of traffic, which had also been holding up my lane. Not one to hesitate, I ended up going around the incident, and briefly catch the look on her face which was a priceless; one of innocent stupidity where she couldn't explain why it happened...yet I still had compassion for her since she was just trying to be nice. I can only imagine what her excuse was but I decided to focus on what I was doing instead. Needless to say, at that point she just served to add to traffic and made everyone elses day just a bit more worse. ough :squint:
FD +1 .... SUV's -2 :icon_tup:
