    Default Reckless Driver in Grey Acura Legend *YSS 851*

    Please beware this driver. I was stopped at the lights just after the off-ramp from Deerfoot on Beddington Blvd. I see this asshole come tearing up my lane at about 100km/hour. He slams his brakes but he obviously can't stop in time so he pulls into the little bit of shoulder lane, barely clipping my car and (get this) RUNS the red! Stupid careless fukker. The lady in the benz that was stopped beside me shared a look of WTF! Anyways, I continue to watch him tail gate as he speeds away. I mean I'm all for pro-active driving, but not much I can do if i'm already stopped at a light! What a jerk. But thank gawd I'm still alive.

    Hopefully there was a really good reason for his urgency.

    I really don't think there is a reason good enough for endangering the lives of others.

    I understand your point, but you never know. Could have been a medical emergency? At least no one was hurt, and if this person drives like that often enough the police will catch up with him.

    True. Believe in Karma.

    Interesting paradigm shift. Although I'm pretty sure he was just being a dumbass. I'm better now, I don't see my life flashing before my eyes.

    If there is a medical emergency, call an ambulance. Their response time is around 7 minutes.

    Can any of us drive to a hospital in 7 minutes?

    Didn't think so.

    You should go to a police station and fill out a witness statement... they can probably issue a registered owner ticket to whomever owns it....

    Actually, it's seven minutes to you, then probably 10 or so to the nearest hospital depending on where you are.

    My point is that you are under professional medical care in 7 minutes.

    I would rather be in the back of an ambulance being taken care of than in the back of a friends car/pickup truck bleeding out...

    if he clipped your car it's a hit and run. Since you have the plate report it to the police. I take it there is some damage?

    They respond to your home in 7 minutes. Not to the hospital.

    Give the guy a break - I doubt he'd run a red light in a dangerous intersection unless it was an extreme emergency. Perhaps someone was sick in the vehicle, or there was something that happened at home...

    It had NOTHING to do with an emergency. He was just an ASSHOLE. He couldn't stop in time so he had to swerve my stopped car and run the red b/c i heard his screeching tires. What he did was careless and wouldn't have had to happen had he NOT been tailgating and realizing the light had turned red.

    It would have been obvious if it was an emergency.

    If the driver had blood all over him and a passenger that was writhing in agony, then I'd understand.
    If buddy is smoking a cigarette with his stereo pounding for blocks, he's probably not going anywhere important.

    The emergency could have involved his family, which wouldnt be as obvious.

    Well it wasn't an emergency because I eventually ended up near him at the next set of lights and he was driving fine. He was just not paying attention. Him and his wife were giving me a stupid look as I pulled up beside them waiting to turn afterwards.

    So here's to the both of them rolling over in a ditch when its minus 40 below out.
