Well today I was heading through an intersection and some idiot in a big red van pulls out with in inches of me. Literally. Luckily I knew there was no one in the neighboring lane, and thanks to the S's remarkable handling, I was able to move the car out of the way before the large old beat up van hit me... It literally came within inches of my passenger side -- luckily it didn't hit, as there happened to be a passenger in there. It really shocked me as this guy had stopped at the intersection, looked at me, then still turned right straight into me. What an ass.

What it was: I was heading across an intersection (Carmel drive & Meridian) on a green light, when I noticed a white truck turned right in front of me; that was fine. Then the red van pulled up into his spot, looked at me and waited. Then suddenly when I was just across the intersection, he moves out in front of me; if I hadn't moved, his big rusted red van would be embedded into my baby at the moment

Anyway, rant over.

And that's why I always say I need to hear BOTH sides of the story before I make up my mind on a freeway shooting.
