That about sums it up, but let me tell you about my experiences yesterday. <br/><br/>First, I’m coming off a fairly voluminous road on to a highway. It has a cloverleaf-like ramp and a pretty long merging lane at the end of it… It is also pretty blind. I’m coming down the ramp at a decent speed, enough that I can safely merge when I get to the end, I come past the blind part and BAM there is some lady just sitting at the end of the ramp with her brakes on. Nevermind that she has about 500ft of merge lane ahead of her, she is just sitting there. I slam the brakes, avoid her, and give her the horn… She acts like she did nothing wrong, and I quickly make every attempt possible to stay as far away from her I can.<br/><br/>Second, sitting in bumper-to-bumper traffic on the beltway down by the Wilson Bridge. Some douchebag in a black C4 ‘Vette flies by up the inside shoulder amidst giant potholes and trash. He pisses me off, and I wish the worst for him. 45 minutes later, and 3 miles later, I come up on a constuction zone. Wouldn’t you know, there is Mr. ‘Vette w/ dirt all over his clothes, changing his left-rear tire. Hahaha sucka! This really made my day. I let out a really loud and obnoxious cackle as I passed him. Jessica’s reaction to me? “Shut up Michael, he might have a gun and he’ll catch up to us and shoot us.” Sigh… he didn’t even have his wheel on. Silly girls :tongue:<br/><br/>Third and final, I’m approaching a four-way intersection at about 45mph, the speed limit of this particular road. I notice some lady with her front-end halfway in to my lane. I slow down so I can safely stop if she doesn’t reverse or something… Oncoming traffic is constant and she cannot make it across the road, so rather than back up, she pulls even further forward. Mind you, she has a stop sign and I’m on a 45mph road… My lane is now completely blocked by this idiot and I have to come to a complete stop as I reach her. She thanks me like I was doing her a favor when in actuality I didn’t want anything to do with her stupidity and the possibility of an accident by going around her. She goes on her way and I just laugh… What a day.
