Driving my dad to his friends garage today because his 2007 Accord V6 finished getting some work done and this grade A idiot almost causes me to go up a curb at 50mph. For all you NoVa locals, I was on Braddock.

So he's in a Red second gen 4Runner in the left lane, and I'm in the right. For the past quarter mile he has been swerving in his lane, so I backed off. Eventually we met again and I don't know how to describe this that well, but locals know Braddock road is filled with many very wide turns, and as we were coming out of the curve there was a little kink in the right lane, where the curb begins to start further out.

Now the genius in the 4runner is half in his lane half in mine, and if he didn't get over into his lane I would have the choice of A) basically hitting his car in a PIT maneuver type way or B) going up the tall curb at 50, causing lots of damage to my car and probably crashing into the houses on the side of the road. At this moment I look into his rear windshield and guess what said genius is doing....

reading a fucking brochure

As this is all happening he does slightly go back into his lane, so he's only 25% in my lane. I hit my brakes (thanks for the great initial bite BMW) and I avoid hitting something. I back as far off as I can from this idiot and safely make it to the garage. Thanks for reading my long complaint.

Should have honked at him.

I did, and I did about a quarter mile before this happened. I guess he doesn't understand what a horn means.

Probably didn't even hear your horn if he was actually reading intensely enough to be all over the road.

I've followed these people before to let them know what a moron they are. For something like that, I don't feel it's out of line.

If I could go back I definitely would have.. I was close to the garage when this happened so I just brushed it off
