Yes Trisha, I can in fact confirm that any form of even slightly inclement weather causes the ENTIRE STATE's drivers to act like buffoons. In fact, sometimes it will even happen on a fine and sunny day!

What amazes me even more are the *******s who keep driving. They don't bother to pull over and check to see if anyone is okay. How ****ing inconsiderate.

I love the idiots who don't know what to do when an emergency vehicle is coming too. It is just amazing how effing stupid people are these days. FYI, there are "good samaritan" statutes that apply to helping someone after an accident. The laws changed recently to reflect the retarded litigious society out there to stop people from suing you for helping them.

I saw a chick clip a guy on a motorcycle. She stopped in the street but did not get out, presumably was one of the people who called 911. When the cops showed up SHE LEFT THE SCENE. I stopped, put on my hazzards in the lane his bike was in and checked on him. He was knocked out, but uninjured fortunately.

I was hit in an accident exactly like this several years ago. Guy was in the right lane and just started fishtailing for no reason. In a FWD car of some kind, ended up pointing at me (in the left lane) and T-boned me right into the center divide.

I was there and had no idea how that happened. I don't think it was texting, as this was 1996. It was on an LA freeway as I was passing through.

I saw him start fishtailing and slowed down. If I had kept my speed, I probably wouldn't have gotten hit, but not like i could predict that in half a second then.
