If you have never driven in California before consider yourself luck...and...untested. California likes to do weird things. For example you will have two lanes of traffic at a stop light going the same direction, but after the intersection they will suddenly have to merge with each other to become one. Why? Who knows. This is a very common occorance. I have this happen 4 times on my way to work.
Can you guess what happens in the lane that's supposed to merge into the remaining lane? That's right, people become complete dicks and usually try to speed ahead of everyone (usually ending up driving along the shoulder for a mile or more as people won't let them in). Being the mild mannered driver that I am I'm usually in the right lane (the lane that's not merging) miles ahead of time. I'm never late, never in a hurry so I don't need to worry about speeding & such rudeness.
Well today, the light turned green, Preita with other drivers in NON MERGING LANE all start to turn left as the green arrow indicates. ASSHAT in the far right left turning lane desides that he will not wait behind huge county parks truck and he is going to start merging now. Yup, merging/passing in the middle of an intersection strait into Preita's cute little red brand new caliber. Thankfully I was able to slam on the breaks & honk feriously to defend my babies honor. Times like this you always wonder "Where the fuck is a cop when you NEED ONE?!!!" well today my prayers were answered as the person behind me that almost rear ended me from ASSHAT's inablity to plan ahead was a local black & white. :)
Black & white peals around me & jumps right on ASSHAT's ass. Lights & scirens blazing. Does ASSHAT stop? Nope, keeps chugging down the road till we hit a light & black & white get's OUT of his car to bang on the drivers window. ASSHAT was ON THE PHONE!!!!
AHAHAHAHAHAHAHA I don't even want to know what that ticket was like. :) Somehow it all feels like divine intervention though :)
