A story about a 16 year old girl driving into a mack truck to join her father who died last fall is the epitome of tragic. You and paramour are, of course, correct. A young girl's death is tragic--but driving into an oncoming car...

vlad the impaler wrote: According to the news reports, the driver of the semi truck was not seriously injured. That said, I wouldn't wish this situation on anyone. My ultimate point is... let's save the venom for the truly deserving. Or else we are no different than the Freep visigoths and the Chucks. And even though he wasn't seriously injured, that driver will have this on his mind till his last breath. I'd bet he...

My latest driving nemesis is some blonde bitch in a black Explorer getting on 94 eastbound from Moross. Three times this past week I shit you not, the same woman came down the ramp and stepped on her brakes at the bottom of the ramp. There was enough traffic in the middle lane that I...

During my time in east Dearborn it was my observation that Middle Easterners behind the wheel (a) who were off of the boat drove like living embodiments of the tragedy of the commons (e.g. wild driving up and down narrow streets, sudden and unannounced lane changes, tail-gating, use of auto horn in lieu of doorbell, etc.), (b) while the first generation and beyond were indistinguishable from the driving public's mainstream. So yes,...

If Detroit is going to have all these streets with double-wide lanes for parallel parking, they should teach people to drive on them properly. I fucking hate people who stop at red lights with their cars dead-center between the double-yellow and the curb when they could leave room for me to pull up next to them and turn right.

I was stationary next to the curb waiting ofr the light when came up from behind me....

Unless you're on a race track or in a field, keep between the damn lines. There's a slight bend on Jefferson before E. Grand and MaCarthur Bridge, I call it slight but if you're driving 40 or 50 you've got to put yourself into it and not do it like the woman in a big Chrysler an hour...

Sure enough, a woman in a minivan (and several men have done this, too) stops halfway down the...
