Life I saw the worst driver today. - Page 5

First off, I'm not going to tell you age, gender, or race. I will tell you that it was not a person who looked like they had a learner's permit.

But it was pretty funny.

I was driving on a very busy highway in California, two lanes going in each direction with a 60 mph speed limit. I came to a stop because a couple of cars ahead, someone was stopped halfway in the lane and halfway in a driveway to a coffee shop parking lot. It was a nice Audi sedan two cars ahead of us.

I thought maybe someone was trying to get out, blocking them from entering, but I couldn't see anyone. We sat there for a minute and traffic started piling up quickly behind us.

The car just sat there and didn't move. We waited for a while, and then the car ahead of us started honking.

The Audi then backed up onto the highway, most of the way. Then it pulled up again. Then it stopped again.

Then it somehow - and I have no idea how - got a wheel off the ground. I cannot even begin to explain how, but I could see the back tire spinning with no traction. This was in a concrete driveway with no precipitation in good weather. I seriously have no idea how they did it.

Then it backed up again. By this point there were lots of cars behind us, and the left lane was full of people passing the car.

It backed all the way into the left lane, stopping all of the traffic and making cars dodge it, and stopped again. Then it cut the wheels and after about 100 feet it managed to get into the right lane. It took off at about 20 mph in a 60 mph zone. As cars started passing again, it then ever so slowly drifted into the left lane with its right turn signal on for some unexplainable reason, making everybody dodge it again.

We eventually passed on the right side, laughing uproariously. There was a driver and passenger, and they were clearly oblivious to what they were doing.

I can't handle slow drivers in the fast lane. 1 lane roads I deal with slow drivers and try to keep off them, that is what it is. But driving in the left lane and using it as a casual drive makes me crazy.

I also can not stand when people put their blinker on as they are turning or a half second before. What is the ****ing point of that?! I want to see your blinker on as a heads up that you are about to slow down and turn. Once you break, don't even ****ing bother with the blinker. I don't give a shit which way you are turning, I need to know THAT you are going to turn.

And for the love of God, pull into the turn lane before you hit your brakes!

I always find it weird when people slow down to a crawl before making a right turn. Obviously one must slow down before a turn, but I'm talking about the ones who slow down to half their speed or less when there's clearly a wide open path for them in an area with no bikes or pedestrians. They're the cousins of the people who brake before entering the left turn lane.

So was it Slayer Diablo or not? And did he hit any houses if it was?

That driver deserved to be t-boned directly in their door.

What a ****wad move. Deserve multiple tickets and lose their license.

I was cringing as I watched that. I was expecting to see an innocent person get injured or killed at any moment.

Whew, those were some alert drivers. I can see why Toby Waller got banned. RIP Toby.

I say it all the time. There are very few “accidents” on the road. But, there’s a shit ton of stupidities.
