This is ridiculous. Almost got into an accident - GoFuckYourself.com

bangman · 12-31-2005, 07:03 PM

It seems like every day I leave my house, I almost get hit by some idiot.
On this occasion, I'm driving torwards a red light in the right lane. Two lanes, one for turning, one for going straight. I was going straight. So I'm heading to the red light about 200ft away, going maybe 15-20mph (in a 45) since there is no one in the straight lane.

Next thing I know I see this horizontal car in my lane. This old woman apparantly had to turn into this side street so she cut in front of the cars in the turning lane (who also had a red light) she didn't bother to look in my lane, and popped out right in front of me. By the time I saw her I was about 10ft away, slam on my breaks and luckily I could stop - literally inches from hitting her front quarter panel - and what does she do? Not a damn thing. SHE DIDN'T EVEN NOTICE ME.

Meanwhile my poor dog is hurt and shaken because he slammed hard into the dash and windshield, luckily he is ok. I look to the stopped car beside me and we both exchange what-the-fuck looks and I go on.

We all have close calls while driving, but this is just ridiculous. I have been in this new area since June, and this sort of stop has happened plenty of times. I'm in an small area that is full of retirement homes, golf courses, you know. So there are these old women that are clearly not capable of driving anymore. In fact I live right on a golf course, next to a big retirement community.

I can't even remember how many times I almost got hit by idiots not stopping at stop signs, red lights, plowing out onto a busy road without looking etc It's ridiculous. The worst part is I bring my dog with me a lot of the time, and if something happened to him because of these peoples' stupidity, I would be devastated.

Get your dog a harness and sit him in the backseat as you would a child.

From the looks of this link, they've got doggie car seats too.

I don't understand why people ride motorcycles in normal traffic... its basically like trusting every driver on the road with your life. STooPid

Thanks for the link bud

It seems like people are getting worse and worse everyday. I have had so many close calls with idiots who run lights and stop signs like they are not even there. No wonder why insurance rates go up, they have morons they have to protect.

Deej · 12-31-2005, 08:53 PM

I agree bangman.....

A lot of the problem...is your problem right here...elderly drivers....

I'm talkin about those white/blue haired lil grannies peering with squinted eyes through the slots on their steering wheels. All of 'em

I started this idea back about 6 or 7 years ago when that old man plowed through the dozen or so in the marketplace....he gets out, looks down at the guy pinned under his car and then at the other on his hood and lsitening to the people yell at him.....his reply?

"Well if they seen me coming, why didnt they move?" ....like it wasnt his fuckin fault....

anyway the idea...

follow these people that you see doing "goofy" shit....put a sticker on their driver side door.....double sided so they see it getting in and while driving....

"Go to the DMV, turn in your license. Hire a chauffer if you must! You are a hazard to yourself and others."

something along the lines of that.

Ive followed and told them that and ive left notes.....but i havent manufactured the stickers (Super Sticky) or started the website yet.

Sorry about the doggy too....I have a big fuckin dog...I had him once and had to do that because some dickhead and i slammed my brakes .... poor bastard got thrown up and his body fell down in the floor area, but his head got shoved up onto the dash.....I thought it broke his fuckin neck....I was freaked out ....... I hate careless/inconsiderate people...
