Took me to one of Jenna's threads too. :dunno: Vote still counted though.

I hate idiotic drivers that don't think enough. I definitely think that riding a motorcycle and going through the safety course really helped my awareness.

I'm a great driver... The idiots around here demand it to avoid getting in a wreck :lol:

Compeition level, yes... However, I would be at the absolute bottom of the grid! :thumbs:

I'd actually put myself between the first to poll options, but since there isn't the place for it... I'll round up :lol:

I feel as though I'm a good driver, but there sure are some bonafide idiots out there.
The poll took me to the EFILive thread. :lol:

I was honest and went with average. I have no speeding tickets, and have never been in an accident. I am very aware of the dumb-asses around me so that helps. I have never even owned a manual car so I can't say I am a wiz at that.

Man last night I got fired up when I was sitting a stop sign but noticed a S10 rolling pretty good. I started to turn left as she was approaching her stop sign to the right. I was turning slowly because of her pace and she drove right through it...

I got on the horn... And I was pissed. She started driving slowly so I got in front of her, parked the truck, got out as did her and her husband.

I yelled "Did you not see the stop sign"

She said: I did not. I made a mistake. Do you not ever make mistakes? STOP cussing at me.

I was like, I did not cuss at you.

She somehow managed to call me a idiot. And I said NO MAAM, You are the idiot that drove through the stop sign. Are you drunk. Do I need to call the cops...

People were driving up so I felt it was time to leave.

As I was getting in my truck I said, Hopefully next time you wont lightly justify stupidity because next time the other person might not pay attention and because of your stupidity you will plow right into them...

Yeah, I went a little Hen Avenger on her.. Her husband didn't say a word... If he was in his right mind, hopefull she got a ear full on the way home.

If it was me, I would.
