Sure it does! Hey everybody! Take this quiz:

Are you a dangerous driver?

Re: PLEASE READ! I need to know about stoplights!!

I drove for almost 18 years without so much as a minor scrape, until one day some assclown decided to whip into my lane from around a blind corner, in the sleetish-rain. I locked 'em up and cut away hard but kept sliding forward, and he did too. We caught each other's front left fenders. Neither was hurt, but I was sorely pissed that my driving record had been smeared because of one person's personal problems.
A couple of years later, I was sitting at a red light waiting for my turn when some 18 year old in a Camaro skids into my rear quarterpanel right behind my door. I'm very Blessed that he didn't sling me into the path of the 18-wheeler that was coming up behind me in the next lane. He was late for work, and was speeding.

Another time I was coming home from the grocery store one night in my Mom's '85 Grand Marquis LS, and I check the rear-view to make sure no one's racing up behind me before I signal to make my turn up ahead. All I see is 4 red lines in the mirror: some cocksuckin teenage redneck was ON MY ASS so close that my TAIL LIGHTS were lighting up his grill!
I was sooooooooooo pissed. I never wished harder for a lever that I could just pull to drop the rear bumper, or to have been in my own car, cuz I woulda locked 'em up and then beat the sh!t outta whatever survived the wreck, and burned whatever didn't survive. To this day I hope that fukker dies a slow painful death for that ****. WHat if a deer had jumped out? It was on a rural 2-lane road, and the dick had plenty of time and room to pass me, but he was "drafting" like it's a damn NASCAR track (incidentally that sh1t only works at speeds above 70, and I was doing 55 - the posted Speed Limit - so how this fuknut thought he was saving any mentionable amount of gas money is way beyond me - maybe that 1/10th of a cent they try to make you think you're not paying when they say $1.899 [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img] )
But honestly, I was scared shitless to even take my foot off the gas for fear he'd slam me off into the damn river. That woulda been fun for me [img]/images/graemlins/brow.gif[/img]

Children have absolutely NO reason to drive a car at any time unless it's a life/death emergency or they are the primary wage-earner in a household caring for sick/disabled parents or legal guardians. Period. And there are literally thousands of examples every year to support that idea.

But this is America, where Little Johnny ain't a man until he's got a driver's license, and too many ignorant redneck dads that say "aw hell I was drivin 30 hours a day 9 days a week uphill both ways blindfolded at 15 without a license, so mah boy's gonna have his manhood ID at 15 so he can be a real man too hyuk hyuk"

Don't be another statistic.

And Chuck - sorry to hear about your friend. People around here even do that to other cars. I almost owned a brand new LandRover the other day cuz some douchebag just pulled out in front of me (he had a Stop sign, which he did stop for) but I didn't. I got maybe 30 yards from him and he pulls out like I was James Fukkin Bond in a V-12 Vanquish with Adaptive Camo [img]/images/graemlins/brow.gif[/img]
I know he saw me, cuz he was lookin at me like "What's YOUR problem!?" as I was giving him the "Die MuthaFukker" eye [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

Had I not hit the brakes I'd have rolled his 'Rover over. If I see the S.O.B. again I'll give him a refresher course in proper driving etiquette the hard, unfriendly way.

Actually it does serve a purpose. Hopefully this thread will make you more aware of how important it is to be a safe driver and obey the laws.. They are there for a reason. I certainly aplaud you for your honesty at your age, a lot of kids would treat it as no big deal.. Kids love speed and danger by nature.

Beyond what everyone is telling you here please think of this... If you mistakenly kill someone while your daydreaming.. you have to live with that the rest of your life. You will possibly go to jail, and the family will probably financially destroy you with lawsuits ..all while this happens YOUR family will be dragged in and heartbroken .. Please think twice when your driving from now on... the life you save could be Sullys ..

Re: PLEASE READ! I need to know about stoplights!!

Look, the ****ing lesson was learned 2 nights ago, about 2 seconds after I skidded throught the ****ing intersection.

I didn't ask for "daddy's talk" 40 ****ing times, I just wanted to know if there were they ever have cameras set up that aren't announced.

I obvously have deep concern, I could hardly sleep that night! Come on people, there are parts of my ass not properly chewed to pieces, there is still good meat back there, so have a ****ing bite why dont you?! especially when every one of you has forgotten what they were doing at one time.

Axtogrind you're not kidding about MIAMI drivers I live here & have been here off & on for ever I drive as little as posiable in this city. We have one of the highest rates of road rage in the country down here. When lights change you got to wait to see if the 3 or 5 people turning are going to run the red , that & the drivers half a block away speeding to get through the red before somebody starts to turn right away.
