Who here knew I couldn't drive?

It's not that you can't drive. You're investigating new vehicle control techniques and as soon as you perfect and patent them, you're going to host a free boogie and give us all new rigs.
I am not the man. But the man knows my name...and he's worried

MARTA!!! sadly I never thought I'd recommened it, but u got a better chance at surviving a ride on the MARTA then u driving... :D:D:Dsorry sweetie some people were meant to not drive...[:/] maybe Casie can drive u... btw what the hell is ur insurence rate????????:|



I always said MARTA stood for Moving Assholes Rapidly Through Atlanta, so they wouldn't be on the highways tearing them up! :D (ducks)

Don't worry, it ain't much better over here in the greater Birmingham area, and we don't even have a rail system. There's a bus system, but nobody really uses it except the poor... carpool? We're one of the worst cities in the country when it comes to carpooling. Everybody seems to prefer driving their own cars...

I can hold my own out here, but it ain't easy...

Yeah, how much ARE you paying in insurance, assuming that you can even get covered?!? :o Somebody with that kind of record can find themselves shit out of luck finding someone to cover them here in Alabama, and WE have a state law requiring liability insurance for all cars. Funny how most of the accidents here are caused by uninsured drivers, forcing the insured victims to use THEIR insurances to cover the damages... >:(

I get on my wife's case sometimes about her driving and emailing on her pager at the same time. She ruined one tire from running over a curb too many times. :S

My insurance rates aren't that bad, because a lot of my accidents are of the unreported, single-car variety. :D

The last one I got a ticket for was almost three years ago. Other than that, I just keep bumping people and paying the $100-$400 damages out of pocket.

My coworker's not going to make me pay for yesterday's bump, btw. Much like me, he's not too concerned with a couple of scratches on his car.

The only thing that jacks up my rates a bit is the fact that I've had a few comp claims . . . I hit a deer, my car got vandalized, my car got broken into, etc.

Apparently my luck sucks, too! :D

I hit a deer once too, and I was still paying for my car... I was lucky though, the deer hit me in the side, left a big dent in the left front panel. I didn't report it. Two years later my wife rear ended someone who did a brake job on her (slammed brakes in front of her). Wasn't her fault though. Then I took the car to the shop... Insurance agent looks the car over... marks everything up, INCLUDING the deer dent... whew! ;)

I'm trying to keep my record ticket-free too. Nothing in the past 2-1/2 years, never mind that I still go 85-90 on the highway... :S

Yeah, when I hit a deer, my car wasn't so much driveable afterwards . . . and the deer wasn't so much alive. B| Cost $2k to get it fixed that time.

My other wreck that I had 2.5 years ago put about $4k of damage on my car, and about $300 on the other. How? I drove under a truck. They just needed their bumper repaired.

Lucky them... I was a victim like that too. Someone rear-ended my truck, knocked my bumper down. I just needed a new one. They needed a new hood, front bumper and radiator... B| it was their fault anyhow...

Now my dad... man who could forget the time he was driving that big ass heavy steel Dodge RAM extended van... and some dude in a VW Rabbit smashed into the back of his van! :o Dad said the impact was pretty severe. But when he got out to look... There was only a couple of scratches and a small dent in the steel bumper, but the Rabbit was totalled... radiator was forced into the engine, which was partially torn off the mounts!

I've only ridden with you once and I let Pyke do the complaining. ;)

Next time someone complains about your driving, just tell them to close their eyes, just like you do. :P
