Post all the cool things you saw and or anything interesting you seen along the way!

Mine was pretty frosty, but I seen an Iltis! I had seen one on Kijiji about a year ago, but never seen it out and about, until today!

Awesome little rig. I believe this picture may be the exact one.

That looks awesome!! Was it running? lol

Mine was simple. Traffic was light so a group of about 5 cars (myself included) were doing GREAT speed. Only got cut off once, but the gentleman moved over as soon as he was done passing. I love it when people go by the rules or are nice to other motorists. took me 9 minutes as opposed to the usual 15

Didn't seen that much today. My commute is mainly dark and boring.
I did see a Near accident involving two cars in one turning lane.

Crashes are bad but kind of neat to see as long as everyone is ok. I saw a city bus being towed and dragging something on the ground yesterday too!

Bad enough I had to make a post about one specific driver.

Yeah, with my crash. I was fine. I still am not sure what happened exactly. The the other driver was confused, and took responsibility for it.

The near accident was stupid, there is one turning lane, and one travel lane. They both were sitting in the lane, one went slightly before to turn onto the single lane road. It wouldn't have been an injury accident if it did happen.

Rode past my neighbor's 1st gen CTS-V today. Always makes me second guess my decision to get the GTO.

My commute is 20 miles down a 4-lane divided highway with a bunch of stoplights. As the main thoroughfare, usually they are green for longer for us versus the smaller intersecting roads. However, today they were somehow screwed up, so 2 of the lights were literally green for only 10 seconds. This caused a huge backup in both directions. It was fun.

My commute this morning was humdrum, but I saw a Maybach and a Quattroporte on my way home last night. It's the first time I've seen a Maybach on the road before!

I have seen more cops in the past 18 hours on the highway and in town than I have seen in a month. 14 just last night on my commute home. Maine must have a bit of a deficit going on...

Yesterday on my way home, I had an unmarked cruiser pass me on the highway. I saw him so I made sure not to speed. He was speeding (no lights/sirens) cuz you know, the law doesn't apply to cops. On my way to work this morning, he was parked in the grassy area of the on ramp and started driving as I got on. Again, I didn't speed and he passed me again. I don't know if I'm paranoid and it was just a coincidence, or if the car is just asking for him to watch me. 99% sure it was the same unmarked cruiser.

huh maybe so. WRX's (if that is what you drive) get crept on up here often because they assume you are going to do something outside the law. Aint right, but my WRX driving friends get hassled...sometimes for cause, sometimes just out of the blue. I just creep in the Audi's and usually they dont look twice

It goes thru the town forest and between a coule cranberry bogs. It has nice curves, a couples hills and a police station at the end.
