WTF!!! So I hereby motion that all people without brains should be put on the following restrictions:

no driving during rush hour.....no-period...if you do, I hope you die

no increasing the population of our already overpopulated world....if you do, you will be shot

UGH!!! That's my solution for my crappy drive this morning....and to whoever rear-ended the semi or something on 124th and 85 this morning...i hope you have your license revoked ...maybe someday i'll feel bad about no serious injuries...right now i'm just pissed!!!

:scream1:

ok....maybe this + coffee and i'll come down off my ledge:banghead:

Ha! Seriously. Is it that kinda morning this moring with moronic drivers? So, I come up on a left turn lane...Hover Rd. onto hwy119 in Longmont, and I'm approaching the light, which was a green arrow, and right at the last second, a guy in a little Mazda in the right-hand lane decides he wants to turn left all of a sudden. So, he whips into the left lane right in front of me and out onto 119. Meanwhile, I'm slamming on the brakes so hard, all the shit in the passenger seat is flying forward and I get stopped at the light for the oncoming cars. Lucky bastard, or I woulda been on his tail in an instant. Stoopid drivers.:scream1:

About 2 hours ago a lady riding a scooter rear ended my brother in a ranger. She ended up in the bed of the truck. Luckily she had here helmet on shes ok. He said he saw here coming, she was looking to the side. He couldn't do anything though there was a car in front of him.

Since the majority of people aren't originally from here, they gotta be coming from somewhere.

Take away all of the distractions inside the vehicle - Cell Phone, Blackberry, spoiled brats, DVD players, Fourbucks coffee, food - And you will see accidents reduce dramatically, and driving get a lot better.

I hear people talk about drunk driving causing a lot of accidents. yes, it DOES. But more people are distracted while driving by things other than alcohol and they are responsible for more accidents than alcohol is. Why are there no coalitions, groups, or government funded organizations to put an end to this stuff?

Mothers against Driving Distracted? Rockers against Distractions? Students Against Distracted Drivers?

Huh? Sorry...I was a bit distracted and didn't understand this post and I've got to keep my post short. I am typing on Blackberry while driving down I-25, eating a sandwich, playing with myself, and attending a conference call, and flipping everyone the bird for only going 80mph rather than the normal 90 for rush hour.

My commute sucked today. Worst EVER.

Start work at 7, got up and about 6:50.

Kids left stuff all over the stairs. Had to lane split all the way down. Got through that and dropped 2 and rolled over.

Hit the breaks -- Dog was blocking the main hallway to my office. I decided to take the side roads via the kitchen only to find my 6 & 8 year old making pancakes. OMG don't rubber neck !! What a mess!

Had to stop and let out a helpless lost dog out the patio door (had the chase rabbits taking a dump on my lawn).

I finally made it to work at a record slow time of 6:53! I suck.
