I almost got involved in a spectaculer accident just now.
I'm driving Mrs. Raptor's Acura MDX with two other people on board on the northbound Pasadena Freeway, which is old and very windy, just north of Downtown LA. I'm in the left lane and the freeway is bending aroind to the right. Some jerkoff kid in a beat up old compact roars around me on the right, almost rear ends the car in front of him, and cuts me off. I thought he was going to hit me. I lay on my horn and he turns around and looks at me as he flips me off. If there's any time you don't want to take your eyes off the road, it's when your car's not going in a straight line and the roadway is turning. He loses it, the rear end comes around, and he goes up and over the center divider. I thought he was going to go into oncoming traffic. The barrier flung him backward across all lkanes of traffic right in front of me, about eight feet off the ground, into a concrete wall on the right side of the freeway. Miraculously, no one hit him. His car was absolutely trashed. I had the only lane of traffic that could go forward. He was moving around and not seriously hurt. 
ing idiot. I think it might make the news tonight.

I guess I kinda provoke em. This asshole wanted to cut in front of me and I didn't back off. Then he did something stupid, followed by sometiing much more stupid. I was tempted to stop and rub his ing nose in it, but we were in a hurry to get somewhere.
