That was very close, good save. After watching a few minutes though, I notice you cross the double yellow often.

prepare for the flames, OP...you were across the line way too many times. Continued actions like this risk the result of an "un-invitation to future events." Not ridiculing, just reminding you that being safe is far more important than...well....whatever you call that.

Otherwise, very nice vid and I really dig the camera angle

I was following someone coming back from the monster rollout, and I kid you not, EVERY left turn he would cross the yellow line. It was a black car with a shit load of stickers on it.

People should really attend AND LISTEN @ the driver's meetings before the drives

I saw a lot of guys stepping out of line. Truth is, I don't believe they even realize that they are terrible drivers.

I must confess, I was paranoid about it. KingFunk was behind me on the rollout, and after we had stopped I did have to ask him if I ever crossed the double yellow. He confirmed that while I did kiss it from time to time, I never crossed it. Made me feel better at least...but I was driving like an ol' lady compared some of the other guys out there
