Some a-hole(Toyota Sequoia?) in the passing lane suddenly STOPS..with no signal or blinker(in the middle of the passing("fast") lane then proceeds to turn right ACROSS my(cruising) lane and off the street to a large shoulder. He starts to cross in front of me...no one is behind me and I lock up the brakes and miss his bumper by about 6 inches as he finishes crossing in front of me. No damage to the Z. Thank you driving skill, awareness(safe driver class), and my Hawk HPS pads. It seems as though people are trying to wreck me and it doesn't even work. Shake-n-Bake baby..shake-n-bake.

not all young people are dangerous drivers. course I think it might have something to do with the fact that I've paid every dime for this car all by my damn self. but that may be another issue entirely.
