Yes.

And they don't care how their driving affects other people.

Atlanteans are not unique in that respect.

And, to LordRaiden, she can't be a Darwin Award candidate...she's still alive and able to breed.

Well got to give her credit. She did manage to change lanes without hitting anyone and get the under the overpass before the sofa got wet.

I saw this and it make me furious.

If I found out why this woman swerved and caused me to wreck my ride, I'd jump up on her truck, whip it out and pee all over her damn sofa!

This is because most of the idiots down here are transplants from the northeast and brought their driving habits with them. ;)

I've seen my share of crazy stuff on the interstates here in the Atlanta area. People speeding by with no hands on the steering wheel with one out the moon roof and the other filled with cellphone. Driving with a knee on the wheel is not maintaining control of a vehicle. Women pluck their eyebrows along with putting their makeup on and guys shaving on the way to work. This is in addition to the readers. To bad those kind of people can't be shot on sight. :disgust:

I'm with conjur. Revoke her licence.

Darwin winners have to die doing something stupid.

Don't worry. She'll complete the requirements to become a winner soon enough. Especially at the rate she's going. I just hope nobody else gets hurt/killed by her stupidity.

That's all she did. Sure she may have caused an accident, but legally the accidents were caused by people following too closely.

I realize nobody stays as far back as they should in order to avoid something like this and still think she should be responsible for all of it.

That's not entirely true. She cut off two vehicles herself while changing lanes... that has nothing to do with following distance since she was coming from a different lane. But, yes, the rest of the accidents could be blamed on that.
