CrazyDave_merged Posted July 20, 2007 Report Share Posted July 20, 2007 I'm waiting at a light, 4 cars back on an 8 lane bumper to bumper. All of a sudden this sedan appears ahead (going in reverse) coming from the right. He crosses the median. In the on-coming lane the car makes a u-turn and heads straight for the car right in front of me (still in reverse). I could see that the driver was knocked out. The SUV ahead of me gets T-Boned. Mr. reverse bounces off the SUV and gets hung on the median. SUV goes forward (too late) and turns into a parking lot. Mr. reverse had a head on with a Beamer in the center lane that started the whole incident. But I have no idea how it happened. I was oblivious. I'm sittng there in Sherby wondering "what the hell". That could have been me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mywickedshelby Posted July 20, 2007 Report Share Posted July 20, 2007 Thank God you both are ok. Sometimes we worry about whats going to happen while we are zipping around, and then, you almost get blasted sitting at a light! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stump_breaker Posted July 20, 2007 Report Share Posted July 20, 2007 ewwww. I hate Houston traffic almost as bad as Dallas traffic. I hate Dallas traffic worse because I have to drive in it more often!.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gtplumber_merged Posted July 20, 2007 Report Share Posted July 20, 2007 ewwww. I hate Houston traffic almost as bad as Dallas traffic. I hate Dallas traffic worse because I have to drive in it more often!.... Try Washington DC traffic! Yes that is the biggest fear, getting hit by some other idiot, I am very careful driving thru town. Just think what it would take to restore our cars to normal.

ShelbyGT/SC Posted July 28, 2007 Report Share Posted July 28, 2007 You could just wrap a 3 foot thick piece of hard rubber around your car to protect from the next guy. Would look great at the car shows LOL. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
