No flaming, I really feel you should be thankful to be alive, rather than blaming everyone else in the world for your mistake.

Btw, you can just ignore me, there is no rule telling me you have to give me warning.

The dakota "almost hit him" - Even if it was on a 100% collision course with him while passing, moving 5 feet to the left would have been fine. He overreacted, and that's why his car is totaled, not the dakota.

Yes, I'd imagine merging on the 101 or the 405 a single time more cars come close to hitting me than a year's worth of driving in, say, rural Arkansas.



I like how when someone posts accident pictures and admits to going 5 to 10 mph over the speed limit, everyone on the forum comes in and gives him the third degree, but when I say someone should be thankful to be alive instead of blaming others for an accident they could have avoided, I'm "mean"

you try an evasive maneuver two days after you go from street tires to winter tires when there is cold weather, moisture, and black ice...

for real.

the main difference is my tires... my summer tires are 205/40/17 and my winters are 175/65/14... that distinctly changes the handling of the car and takes a couple days to get used to
