I broke mine - some idiot blew through a yellow light to turn in front of me, while I'm doing 55 and am 5 feet from the intersection. He sees me, stops halfway, so he's half in my lane. Took evasive action and I swung the rear right tire over a curb, then dropped the back off into a ditch trying to avoid him. Which I did successfully, but I snapped my rear sway bar.

Damn, I just threw out a stock bar. Someone pulled out in front of me on Sunday. Had to threshold brake hard and swerve into the other lane. One of these days I'm not going to slow down and just plow into them.

I always think the same thing but instinct takes over and I end up screeching to a stop. Maybe if I drove a madmax type car that I didn't care about.

That's how I feel sometimes, some people seriously need to learn now to drive. But then again some are just idiots
