Tirade: Idiot Drivers

[frankoV]

So . . . I back out of my driveway so I can go to work yesterday and I notice that my neighbour has a visitor who is leaving at the same time [not that I’m suggesting anything, but he was getting into a Buick or an Oldsmobile . . . if you know what I mean]. So I am very careful as I put my car into drive and . . . good thing . . . he throws his car into reverse and backs out without looking. I stop and wait for him to go. He does . . . ever so slowly.

I think about passing him, but he stops after about 15 feet, and I stop (can’t get around him) . . . as does the person that has now crept up behind me. Then (I still can’t believe it) the guy in front of me starts to reverse. I hit the horn. He keeps coming. I hit the horn hard. He keeps coming. I lean on the horn . . . and when he hits me he stops.

I get out of my car [deep breaths first – V is now 7 months old] as does he. He walks over to me and asks [quote] “Did you just hit me?”. I’m stunned (OK maybe at the best of times I am, so I’m more stunned) and say, “No, you backed into me – didn’t you hear my horn?” to which he replied “Yes”. (more stunnedness).

I walk to the front of my car to check for damage – he asks if there is any, I reply “doesn’t look like it”; he says “Thank God”, gets in his car, and drives away!

If I ever see that car again . . .

Lmao!

Srry you had to go through this but thats just a funny story. Somethign HAD to be wrong with that guy...

[Slither]

It'll happen again and he could pick on the wrong person next time.

He'll end up being dumped in the faculty by his insurer, that's if he isn't already there and hasn't had his license suspended.

I was trying to be nice in my description of the guy.

The hint is found in the fact that he was driving a Buick or an Oldsmobile . . .

I dont get the part of what car he was driving?

[frankoV]

most young guys don't drive Oldsmobiles

wow.. i would have had to keep it cool.. i'd have cussed him out.. How can he have a license but not look when he backs up?

And when he said he heard your horn.. That should have made him stop not continue to blame it on you.. He prolly left because that person behind you could have been a witness to saying he hit you, that way you didn't get anything, and he got it all..
