ok, here's mine...
Last week, driving down a 3 lane highway, we were in the middle lane, a school bus was in the far right lane. Bus stops to let off some kiddies and pulls half way into the middle lane to let out the kids. Ok, I'm fine with that, he wants to make sure all cars are stopped when he lets out the kids...BUT what made me IRATE was after he dropped off the kids, he proceeds from the far right lane to directly cross all 3 lanes of traffic to make a left turn. How dangerous is that?! What if someone in the far left lane didn't stop? With a bus full of kids, that's a dangerous chance to take. I don't care if he does have to drive the bus down an extra block to correctly merge over all 3 lanes of traffic instead making the handy turn right where lets the kids off. It was just wrong.
My accident story:
You know those big concrete canals..like in the movie Grease where they were racing the cars? Well we were crossing one and the street we were merging into had a stop sign for the other cars. Some moron didn't stop at the stop sign and slammed into my passsenger side. The jeep would have fallen into that huge canal had we not been right before the guard rail and slammed into that instead of going over. Car was totaled. Amazingly, I was fine, but my friend who was driving had to go to the hospital. She's ok now. Best part...it was a hit and run. Jerk never even stopped to see if we were ok.
