They must know that on Tuesdays I drive nearly an hour round trip after school, and that I must have something to keep me entertained while in traffic. So they selflessly stepped in and amused me with their antics.

For your convenience, let me summarize. In the first clip, the 4Runner and Tahoe blast through the red light from the left. Then the Escalade, who was preoccupied with their mobile device, doesn’t notice the green. It turns out, though, that it’s a good thing they didn’t go sooner, because the idiot in the silver Accord decides to try and engage them in a friendly game of chicken.

In the second clip, the C30 ignores the disappearing of the protected left light and cuts off oncoming traffic. Two blocks later, they get cut off by a truck. They then make a right turn at about 10 miles and hour, then nearly stop in two lanes for reasons unknown. It certainly wasn’t because they wanted to turn, because when accelerate and go to pass them, they assume I want to race and floor it as well, pacing me until I decide I don’t need to be going 50 in a 35. If they weren’t in a hurry to get somewhere, but also wanted to suddenly go from 5 to 50 in a 35, there can be no explanation other than they wished to keep me on my toes. Good on them.

How many miles have you put on the Ayatel since you bought it?

I got in the end of May of 2014 it with around 115k miles on the clock. It currently has 133k miles on it. So roughly 18k miles in 18 months.

Only problem was some minor sensor about 3 months in that was about $85, and now one of the two cats is bad, which is mostly just an excuse to straight pipe thing thing. Neither left me stranded, or broke the bank.

WooooOOOoooOOooOOOOooo!

In two months and 1,000 miles, I’m $150 in. But I need 02 sensors soon. I can infer that because I’ve gone through $400 worth of gas.

“...engage in a friendly game of chicken duck.” FIFY

I like your healthy alternative to high blood pressure. Laugh at the asshats’ fowl behavior. Then, pâté yourself on the back, and reward yourself by mocking them on Oppo. If more people has a chill attitude like that, it wouldn’t be so dangerous to drive where I live.

So many duck jokes.
