Default THEY GOT ME AGAIN!!!

You are NOT going to believe this. I went to the police station to file my first report and some BOZO changes lanes into my wife's car - not even 1/4 mile from the police station. Note the excellent outline of the other car's tire (and rim) hitting my back door. Apparently 18 year old girls driving SUVs CAN'T SEE CARS. (for the inqiring minds: 2007 BMW 335i)

YOU HAVE GOT TO BE KIDDING ME. WTF WTF WTF WTF.

JEESH.

Dude, that'll be teach you for being so cheerful about the first incident

Seriously though, that is just all kinds of wrong. I'm refraining from making a woman driver comment right about here. I've been hit twice by women running stop signs (one while talking to her baby, the other while eating)

Was she at least talking on the phone?

Press button, receive bacon.

Change lanes, get hit?

I almost got whacked by a teenage girl the other day, turning right and waving at her other girlfriends across the street.

Sorry to hear, 335: get well soon.

That is just a lousy deal for you, how frustrating! Noboby on the road seems to be paying any attention to actually 'driving' their cars.GL
