This one's not too funny, I was behind her and yes.....she slowed down to a crawl, good thing there is a suicide lane.

If you've ever caught something on film from the road....share it.

You should have practiced your bump drafting technique.

PIT maneuver works great in these situations.

Maybe I'm the only HWFM member who takes strange pics while driving....

Plywood tool box, at least this guy works. Looks almost like some of the spoilers I've seen!!!

First pic . . . why would that driver not slow down? Right in front of them is another car that has its brakes on. What did you want them to do? Bump the car in front?

As far as the Crown Vic . . . this just proves that morons are everywhere. Then again, judging by the general appearance of the rest of the car, it is obvious they don't care much about it.

Oh my gosh. In the words of the great Daffy Duck, "That's disssttttthhhhhPICKable!" At least she gave fair warning. Bwahahaha. I would have had such fun with her had I been behind her. My front bumper needs to be repaired anyway (previous owner caused minor damage -- dunno how -- maybe she was following that VW!).
