I Hate Stupid Drivers!!!!!

Kevin 1G Drummer · 07-24-2006

Some stupid woman driving a full size chevy van just ran into my 240 while it was parked next to my house. I was just sitting here listening to music when my car alarm pager started goin off, so I walked outside to check it out and she was just backing up and about to hit my brother's truck which was parked behind my car. I stopped her and got all of her insurance info before she could leave. She said she was reaching for her phone cuz it started ringing and bam, she side swiped my car. It isn't too bad, just caved the door in a little, pushed in the back half of the fender a little, and scraped my mirror. So it looks like tomorrow I get to bring it to an estimator at work, and call up her insurance company, Great fun. I hate people who talk on their phones while driving. I was on my bike goin for a casual ride friday afternoon and some idiot in a Clevy Astro moved right over on me while on his phone. I bitched at him when we got to the stoplight and he told me to turn my light on or something. I told him I don't have a choice but for my light to be on since it comes on when the key is on, and that I also had my high beam on. Ok, yeah, that got a little longer than I wanted, but please, DON"T TALK ON YOUR PHONE WHILE DRIVING!

You're right though. Bad drivers should be arrested and put in Gitmo.

That is why you don't cruise next to cars when riding a bike. I hate it when cars sit to close to me on the highways. But I do love down shifting and engine braking. I scares the shit out of people. I have most problems in parking lots. Where people don't look back when backing up. Had to many close calls. Come on how can you miss a damn yellow bike. I think even if you drive a sherman tank there are idiots out there that will manage to hit the dam thing.

That would be funny though, because you'd be just fine and they'd be totalled. You'd have to be really careful not to kill people by accident.

I didn't have a choice but to cruise next to the guy, there was cars infront and behind me, and infront and behind him. I got an estimate on my car at work today. $1250 in damage, and that doesn't include the cost of blending the color on the quarter panel.

Damn, I was in my friends car on out on a road trip when his gf called him for the 100x fricken time in 4 hours! He reached for his phone and then BAM! traffic stopped and he didnt. He had a Toyota Tundra, too so he bad to slam on his damn breaks and came within inches of hitting the car infront of us. I was so close to start bitching at him for reaching for his phone, because I hate people who do that. Its common sense, dont drive a car and not pay attention to the road! When I'm on my bike I try my best to make sure the car infront/next to me sees me, if they dont and cut me off I might start kicking side mirrors while I ride by with a nice little middle finger in their face.

I've almost been killed 3 times on my Ninja, all of which were because of females on cell phones. Two were teenage girls, and one was a middle aged woman.

I found out today that I can start fixing my car at work tomorrow, (while getting paid, as well as not pay any labor other than paint labor. So I'll be getting a nice chunk of change from her insurance company, considering they'll be paying labor.
