    Glad you're ok man. I know what you feel. Yesterday some guy almost crashed into me from the drivers side. I was stopped at a red light and all I see in my drivers side mirror is a Daewood loosing control. Luckily he regained control of the car as he got closer to me. When the light turned green, he floored it only to loose control again

      Good heads-up driving, glad you got out safe.

        Hey glad you're ok. That could've been a lot worse for you. I've had nothing but bad experiences with people in trucks and SUVs lately. The other day, I was trying to merge on the 101 and this 4Runner sped up on purpose to prevent me from merging. I wasn't racing, revving or driving in any provocative way whatsoever! Simply merging at about 50mph. In the old days, I would've followed him to his destination but you never know what people pack in their glove boxes these days, especially in LA so I just let it go. Life is too short to let anger get the best of you.

          Agreed. If I got angry at everything that happened on the road here in this godforsaken place, I wouldn't be here. I seriously can't wait to leave this hellhole that is crapifornia.

            it's the rule: if u have a lifted pick up truck u have to drive it like a balls out badass or else.


            almost got involved in an accident with "one of those guys" last winter. I saw it coming and slowed down like you. He proceeded to drive like a maniac until doing a 720 in the middle of 3 lanes. After that, I gave him the ol' 1-2 honk.

              Glad you're okay. Driving home from work (SB 405 to 73) was horrifying yesterday. Even doing 55, I felt like I could lose traction at any second, especially with the flooding at Fairview.

                That's almost where this happened. I just checked traffic and another is stuck there. Morons.

                  I *hate* those people.



                  I have to say, I see a lot less of it since I've moved from a mid-sized city (St. Louis) to a small city (Madison), but it still just blows me away every time...

                          Glad to hear your car is ok and even better news to hear your ok. I feel some people just come out on rainy days to drive like retards. I get cut off all day on rain days and on rain days i stopped taking the 110. I love driving the 110 but rainy day drivers on it are scary and crash in every corner. Also i gave up going above 60 in rainy weather in my car. Btw rain x is awesome.
