Priceless

My daily commute is on Alamden Expwy, 101, 87 and Lawrence Expressway. Once in a while I use Central Expressway and San Tomas Expwy (it also turns into Camden and Hillsdale). You will be hearing these names a lot here.

The title says it all. I did not ride to work today. I was too lazy to put on all the gear and ride. So, I decided to drive. I was on Almaden Expwy about 1/4 mile from the 87 on ramp. I need to turn left to get onto 87. During the normal commute hours, it is very common to have a lot of cars waiting to get onto 87. It wasn't any different this morning except that I was in the front of the pack. It is also common to see a lot of dickwads who just cut infront of cars waiting to turn left.

As I was approaching the signal, i noticed something bright in my rear view mirror. It was a bright yellow Honda S2000 zooming past all the cars . I knew this was just another dickwad. I decided to not let him cut in front of me and i was successful in doing so. He got behind me. As we get to the signal, the left turn lane splits into 2 left turn lanes. He moved into the lane next to me to turn onto 87. I can see that he was mad and once the signal turned green, he floored the gas turning left. Thats when he lost traction and fish tailed almost hitting the on ramp guardrail.

He panicked and hit his brakes and somehow managed not to hit anything but swerved into my lane. I have already stopped and he was lucky that I wasn't stupid like him to floor the gas. If I had done the same thing i would have ran over his ass with my jeep. He stopped there shaking and shivering. I rolled my window down and drove past him pointing my hand towards laughing out loud so that he could hear me. The look on his face was priceless.
