Why are teens on the road???

poobs - 2-25-2004 at 12:06 AM

Some stupid teenager hit me today! I was driving along, minding my own business, changed lanes and BOOM! This stupid teenage girl changes lanes right into me! She hit the side of my car and it kinda pushed me over the double yellow! Luckily, no cars were there at the moment or it would have turned out way worse than it was..My car has a few scratches, but nothing I can't live with..She had her parent's Ford Explorer and only had her license for 4 months..I told her maybe she should give it back for a few more years..Hahaaa! But seriously folks, I'm tired and going to bed..:yes:

Glad to hear you are ok Poobs.

I know what you mean. Back in 93' a stupid teen age girl who had her license for a few months and her parents car didn't yield to me because I had the right of way on a highway---so I plowed into her at 55 miles an hour. Dumb ass girl---I almost slammed her into the Arby's acrooss the street! I didn't get hurt too bad---mostly aches and pains in my shoulder and wrists, but I had to take her to court....I won, but it didn't amount to much after paying the medical bills. It was more or less a pain in the ass!

I had to get a new car though, my car was completely totaled. If you saw the photos of it you'd be surprised I didn't get hurt really bad. Whole front end was smashed! The whole thing was mostly a BIG pain in the ass!

You should have kicked her ass!:lol:

yea besides teen drivers don't forget to mention the ones drive and talk on their cells at the same time... :no: sorry to those who do that, wait im not...:yes:

Girl, tell me about it. I have a cell phone and I never use it. It's kept in my car for emegencies. When you're driving down the road take a look at how many people are talking on their cell phones...it's like 6 out of 10! I hate when they are behind you...they speed up...they slam on the breaks...they speed up...they slam on the breaks. Not to mention they go like 40 mph on a highway when your behind them.......

Stop the Madnesssssss!!!!!!:mad:

*slowly raises hand in the back of the room* I use my cell when driving, but I KNOW I'm not one of those assholes! I won't talk if I'm in traffic and changing lanes a lot cuz I don't feel comfortable doing it..But if I'm sticking to my lane? I will talk..I am always aware of my surroundings when driving..I'm so paranoid of other people plowing into me that I have to be! :rolleyes::D

I know some people are responsible while driving and talking , but the use of ear pieces should be enforced way more.

He he hee, I drive and talk. Sometimes I leave my hands free device at home so I have to hold it. I am pretty aware when I am on my phone. It is like listening to the radio and driving. I don't use it when I am turning or changing lanes, I just throw it between my legs....................................LONG STORY...........
One time this guy was driving and he dropped his cell phone on the floor. He looked at the road and it was empty. He leaned over to get it but he turned the wheel to the right as he leaned down to the right. My bro was looking out the window and saw the car hit the curb crash into the steps in front of our house and knock over the cement light post thingie, it practically cut the car in half in the front. I ran out of the house causE I thought it was cool and I took pieces of the car and lamp post just for memory reasons. It was crazy. So I got the bloody lady a chair and some water. It was crazy the car went through our bushes and everything. Luckily my moms car wasn't there. So my dad came home and saw police cars all around my house...

Man, I hate suckas that talk on their cells while driving, even if they are playing it safe. They usually can't stay on the road to begin with.

When I'm on the road, I devote 100% of my focus to driving. Though I have only been drivin for 9 years, I have never been in a accident (though I have been caught for speeding a few times). Come to think of it, I don't own a cell phone, hate em!

Don't call me, I'll call you!

Peace!
