Angry why can't people drive...

So today on my way back from lunch at work, some moron in an F150 decides he's going to pull out and cross the road right in front of me...

Well at 50mph and the roads being wet from this freek'n tropical storm Fay, I slid right into his rear bumper...





Nothing really bad at all, but it's just really make's me mad, ya know...

I had a bad one today too, no damage, but a lady decided she was gonna try and merge into me at a stop light. She would have had a nasty suprise of my bumper right into the side of her van.

That sucks, people are retarded!
Last year my dad just finished all the body work and had a beautifull paint job done on his '68 ford gallexy 500 convertible (yes its a ford but its a beautiful car!). They were going to drive it down to Oregon (from Alberta) and they stopped about an hour out of Calgary to get some breakfast and some Ass-hat who was still legally drunk from the night before drove into the side of his car in a parking lot!! 75% of the body panels needed to be straightened and re-painted, and if you know what car that is, that's a LOT of metal!!

I feel your pain, my sister backed up into my truck yesterday. She put a small dent under the tail light of my truck right in the bottom corner, and scratched some paint off my bumper...Her car however was not so fortunate, the whole rear quarter panel is smashed up to crap.
I will post pics tomorrow because it is kinda funny.
