good thing i was driving my vic and not a large vehicle yesterday.. heres the story

I was going 40 mph in a 40 mph zone (good thing i was minding the speed limit at the time) and i was in the right lane. On a cross street coming up there was a huge truck waiting to turn left, and apparantly an old lady in an accord was to the right of him trying to turn right onto the street i was driving on. Well, i got up to the truck and then, without looking, the lady makes a right turn about 10 feet in front of me while im doing 40, i could literally see her dentures. So i quickly swerved a lane over and then before i hit a car in that lane swerved in front of the old lady. I think my heart missed a couple beats. If i wasnt watching the street i would have t-boned her and there would be one less bad driver in the world (and id be down one pimp civic)

nice reaction...

something similiar happened to me few days ago...

I changed lane to the left.. the car infront of me did so too without checking her blindspot because thats where I was at...

I had to swerve outta the way a bit but I somehow instinctively stopped swerving completely... its a bit common sense though since I have no idea if there was any car on the lane i'm swerving into... (no time to hceck my blind spot..) I stopped just enough that a neon blew by my left mirror by few inches

she was in a new mini cooper too.

yea, forgot to mention i did check my blind spot while doing this, and its a good thing no one was there because i probably would have swerved into that lane even if there was a car there

Good driving.

I hate it when SUVs block my view when I'm trying to turn right. [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-mad.gif[/IMG]

im always on the look out for stupid ppl

couple months ago lady rolled through a yeild sign at bout 40 mph right into the lane and space i was in
at the same time she came into my lane was the same time i hit the brakes enough to swerve over into the other lane
only an inch or 2 behind a mustang and punch the gas to make sure i got outta the way and past the lady
one inch here or there and i was in a 20 car pile up
