aside from the usual pet peeves, i saw something today that had me shocked. 2 incidents actually:
1. an audi s8, an enormous sports sedan was flying through an intersection at about 60-70mph. now i was approaching said intersection from the opposite side. on my side there is a straight lane and a left turn only lane, and the opposite side had one lane. i was merging into the left turn lane cause it was green and i was making a left, no one else was in that lane. coming at me was a slow moving sedan and behind him was the audi gaining on him fast. instead of stopping the audi had already committed to pass him before i was in the left turn lane. so i went in the left turn lane to see an audi coming into my lane head on at ridiculous speed. thank God for my quick thinking i threw the wheel as hard as i could back into the straight lane and avoided a monstrous accident by only a couple feet.

2. on the way home after first incident, i was following a camry who refused to stay behind this corolla. one lane each way and a windy road (Rt. 202). camry decides to pass corolla on a blind corner. camry took forever to pass him but just as he passed him, a hummer rounds the corner. if the camry had decided 2 seconds later to pass him, someone would have lost their life.

actually its not fair to call others out without checking my driving first. i merged into traffic today without yielding because i was expecting to have a merge lane. thankfully there were no cars there but that was stupid on my part. anyway, i think we should all be careful out there
