How many of these have you run into lately? I'm making a collection, feel free to contribute.
Today I drove to my college. Now, because of how my college is designed, the road in and out of it is one way. I completely by-passed the ENTER sign and drove past the DO NOT ENTER sign, where I proceeded to back up ten cars worth of traffic. Uy, I am stupid.
We have construction in my little city (*sniff* it's growing up), which has attracted all the stupids for some reason. On one road, the left lane is closed. This means people merging at the last minute, others having to slam their brakes, etc. One lady took the cake. She tried to merge into the right lane. The problem? I was right next to her when she tried to merge. I don't think I've ever honked the carhorn at any driver until that day.
A truck in the far right lane was going about 5 mph. I decide to change lanes, hit my turn signal, look over my shoulder, and begin to merge. Briefly, I turn around to make sure everything is okay there and what do I see? That stupid driver in three lanes of traffic! He was trying to reach the turn lane. I wonder what he was thinking as he nearly caused me to crush my 1996 Dodge Neon against his cement truck?
The highway near my house has a speed limit of 55 mph. Due to a big accident in the left hand lane (why is it always the left?) everyone had to use the right lane for about four hours. I got caught up behind a motorcycle. At 30 mph. I wish I could make this up. I was so tempted to run up his bumper. When I noticed it was my brother on the bike, it suddenly became an even greater temptation.
Also, not really stupid driving, but I passed an intersection today that had green and red lights glowing simultaneously. Seriously, how are you supposed to react to that?
