Some jackass in an old silver camero almost ran me off the road today. They passed me, who was going five above the listed speed limit, in a no-passing zone. They would have smashed into me if I hadn't slowed down and swerved a bit to the left, but that in turn made the car go out of control and fishtail all over the place for a couple seconds.
Screw cameros.
ITT driving mishaps : D

Did you honk you're horn? I would have, and I'm a Minnesotan.
This past winter I accidentally rear ended some lady on my way to volunteer for a church thing. It was on the highway and before I knew it traffic was at a dead stop. We're both fine and everything but the car's hood is still dented and the bumper is gone.

I was too focused on getting the car back in control. The last thing I wanted was to spin out and get hit by a car coming over a hill at 60mph. D: Getting sweet justice reporting them though, I've got their plate numbers, car model and all that written down.
That's bad, but at least everyone is good!

I love it when people cut me off in traffic. I'm usually driving my sunfire so it's a super small car but the previous owner of the car modified the horn so it usually sounds like I'm driving a ford f-150 when I honk. Scares the crap out of the jerks. heart

I haven't dealt with any major jerk drivers yet, but I remember when I was skiing down a black diamond, and I was going fast. And midway down, out of nowhere, this goddang idiot from behind suddenly cuts right in front of me.
We were THIS FRICKIN' CLOSE to colliding (our ski tips clicked) and having a serious accident in the middle of a very icy and very steep slope. I seriously would have propelled into the air, and who knows how I would have landed.
That would also be the first time I ever screamed the f-bomb at someone.

Dang, I didn't think that was ever possible.

Why was my first thought, "I bet it was a cute f-bomb"?

@ Kitty and 3mo, I didn't know it was possible either. It just sprang out, though I'm not sorry at all about saying it.
