Driving home this afternoon on 24 I watched an older Accord weaving in and out of traffic. It flashed through my mind it was an accident waiting to happen. Sure enough, not a minute later, it spun out and hit the center divide throwing car parts everywhere across the road. Luckily we all were far enough away to slow down and avoid the debris flying across the road. I barely missed the front bumper being blown across my lane.


Slow down everyone and drive safe.
If you don't have to be anywhere, stay warm and dry at home.

Darwin doing it's job

I get mad when I see people drive crazy in bad weather. The sad part is when they hurt someone else for their moronic behavior.

I'm glad you're okay, Gillian.

Glad youre ok Gillian... yeah theres some crazy ppl out there who dont realize how selfish out there

drive safe guys

ya i dont mind when someone is acting like an idiot and darwin takes over but when they but innocent people at risk that is just rediculous

I usually see the older, non sporty cars driving like that. Dont they know that even in dry conditions, their cars do not handle well so what do they think will happen in rain like this???

+1000

Glad to hear you're okay, Gillian!

Thanks guys! LOL! @ Darwin.

I'm just glad we had a power outage and I closed early.
I can imagine what the nightly traffic will be like.

DAMN at least your okie

drive slow ppls =]

I avoided all by staying home today. No work for me

glad you are okay, Gillian!

You and me both Andy

Glad you and your G are fine Gillian.
Had to drive the 80 this morning to the Dealer and it was crazy with the wind and rain.
No accidents, but learned of many new pot holes the rain caused
Then was in a loaner rest of the day and didn't care about pot holes anymore

I saw a moron in an Ford pickup barreling down I-5 this afternoon going close to 90 when the rain was falling the hardest. This guy was cutting in and out and I saw him approaching, so I moved out of his way. I thought the same exact thing, about an accident waiting to happen, and it probably could have happened, but I exited by then.

Either way, glad to hear you're okay. No power outtage at my work due to the property managers having an on site generator (bastards), but I left early anyways.

my sister just got hit in her camery by a van in san jose on brocaw. So DRIVE SAFE Everyone.

Oh my gosh Grace! I just saw this thread... thank God you're okay.

There are idiot drivers out there. They still drive as if the pavement's dry. I was driving on Thursday and people are driving 5 feet away from each other going 70mph in the rain! Idiots! I saw 4 accidents within 1 mile of each other... all of them hit each other because they were too close. Idiots!

People, keep your distance. And SIGNAL, use your signals! it's there for a reason. I'm just glad you're okay Grace.

Omg is she okay? People KEEP YOUR DISTANCE!

Idiot drivers out there! UGH!
