I Can't Wait Til Winter...
because all the old people go to Florida!
I came waaay to close, today, to getting into an accident. I was driving down a 4 lane road speed limit 35. An old guy pulls out in front of me and gets into the other lane, that was fine but then he decides that he wants to be in my lane, and without a signal, breakes, or even a look behind him swerves into my lane, thank god for ABS or i would have nailed him... I swear almost none of the older people up here can drive! This is about the 4th or 5th time in the past 3 or 4 months i've had to avoide an accident because of old people, although none were as close as todays. That is the one good thing about winter... no old people!

Try doing that when you have 80,000lbs making your butt dyno rip the fabric off your seat. I cannot count the # of times some jerk off pulls out in front of my truck, or cuts me off or whatever. Most people do not realize that a 40ton truck can crush a car like a soda can, or they think we can stop on a dime.

But all seriousness aside, I SWEAR I only drive in New Jersey but, like a good Old Person in Training, I do go to Florida for one week around Xmass.

well I hate it when it seems like when you are out testdriving a car athat is when the stupid drivers come out I was testing out the GTP we looked at and well this older lady gunned it across one lane of the highway just as I was getting to where she would have been if she would have gone all across but she stopped in the turn lane and to be safe I slowed down really quick and was hoping and praying that I didn't get rearended
