I swear.... this morning, following a truck with brake lights stuck permanently on. He gets a pass I guess, but dude. Check your equipment before you haul.
THEN, on the way home I have people dive bombing a very slow moving exit only lane, almost causing a BRINKS truck to rear end the one guy in the Corolla who tried it.
But wait! I forgot about the lady who pulled into a very busy corner gas station, tried to squeeze past me on my left as I was pulling away from the left most pump, just to follow me to one of the two exits, then takes the first when I take the second. The second exit is farther from the busy intersection and therefore SAFER. I see what the dumb bitch is doing, skipping through the station to avoid the red light, so I cut in front of her. And accelerate SLOWLY. DaveChappelleGotchaBitch.WAV
So yeah, back to the freeway. Finally make my way to the bottom of the ramp and there's a white H3 AWWWNNN REEEMMMMZZZ trying to bully his way into the merging traffic from the highway. Uh, okay dude, wait your turn to exit here. But no. He pulls into the exit lane that I just merged from and proceeds to pass a bunch of people just to merge back onto the freeway.
I watch him do this.
Twice.
Then I get in front of him and box him in until traffic eases up and he falls back otu of sight. GotchaBitch.WAV again.
So now traffic is moving, but we're coming up on Miller Park and the Brewers are playing and maaaaaan is everyone trying to get off at that left hand exit, so that lane is backed up. I know not to drive in that lane, or the right (lesser used exit to the ball park) so I stay in the middle lane. So as I am carefully passing the slow cars on my left, doing under the limit JUST IN CASE, some bitch in a Sable pulls out right in front of me and then as I lay on the horn (and the brakes), she floors it up to 70. In a 50. I know because I wanted to catch her to give her a little "tisk tisk" gesture.
Video of that I may post later.
Ugh. Just glad to be home.

I can't stand lane jumpers, only thing that passes me off more are the fucks who go 40km on the on ramp, and then when on the actual highway finally accelerate. Flashing my lights or beeping the horn do fuck all, which scares me.

It came from a store that sells all kind of animal hats. My kids have some that I threaten to steal every winter.

Was the person with the brake lights "stuck on" older? I ask because I once encountered a similar phenomenon about a decade ago, and took the time to reach out to the driver and advise them their brake lights were seemingly stuck on. Their response? They were trained to drive (even automatics) with both feet (right foot gas, left foot brake) as a safety measure, and they didn't realize they were pressing hard enough on the brake pedal to cause the lights to go on. Later that same week I encountered a similar situation, where the lights went out when the driver pulled away from a light, but when accelerating or passing, the brake lights were illuminated. Different driver, but same story: Two-feet driving style, even though it's an automatic.

I followed a Trailblazer for about 7 miles down a winding 2-lane 45mph road. It was towing what appeared to be a small home-made trailer. The odd thing was that by "trailer" I mean the kind you would pull behind your lawn tractor, built with scrap wood that blew off the neighbor's roof during the last windstorm, rolling on two tires donated by a wheelbarrow so old the handles rotted off. This wondrous contraption was about 3'x3' piled as high with split firewood held on with bungee cords, had no lights or plate (like all yard tractor trailers), and was obviously on the brink of total structural failure as we rounded every bend...
