[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I CURSED YOU  BECAUSE THE MOMENT I SAW YOU TURN  ONTO THE MAIN ROAD IN FRONT OF ME I KNEW YOU  WERE GOING TO BE A PROBLEM. IF YOU KNOW YOU ARE A SLOW DRIVER WHY CANT YOU WAIT UNTIL I PASS INSTEAD OF DARTING OUT IN FRONT OF ME AND THEN DRIVING SLOWER THAN ME AND EVERYONE BEHIND ME. YOU ARE SO LUCKY MY KID WAS IN THE CAR. Next time. Well you'd better just hope we dont meet again.[/quote]

OP here. I'm glad to see other people value safety. Very sad to hear someone witnessed people getting hit by a car, though it is good to know they were OK. I too cannot stand when someone is driving poorly and I notice they are on their cell phone and slightly oblivious. Call me too cautious, but I don't talk on the phone while driving. Some people can handle it, but I have seen qyite a few people who are impaired by it.

The person behind me was clearly stressed out and I don't want to add to that. I hope he doesn't end up behind me again because I will still be just as cautious and if I have to stop quickly for a child, his expensive car will go right into me with him tailgating so close.  He ended up behind me for maybe a half mile of driving if that. I maybe added 3 minutes more to his commute. Was it really worth it to be so full of rage? What if your kids were walking in that neighborhood and someone sped right in.

To the poster above, I think that was someone else. I didn't dart in front of anyone. I turned onto the main street with a green arrow so no darting. When I turned into the residential area I simply got into the turning area and I signaled first. He did not signal at all so there was no way for me to know he was going to be turning as well. I would have gladly pulled over and let him pass me if there was a safe place to this.

This was in VA, but I know this is an issue in MD too because I have friends who live walking distance from a school.[/quote]
