I try not to complain too much about other people's driving because I'm not a perfect driver myself.  Not even close, but an incident last night had me pretty angry and an article I read this morning helped me to realize my anger is justified.

I had to run an errand in Rogers last night.  As usual, it's pretty busy and it can be a pain to get off Hwy 101.  I got in the right turn lane across from Target ( I can't remember road names but I'm awesome with landmarks!) and I'm driving up when this semi from Utah cuts right out in front of me.  His trailer almost took me out, I'm not even kidding.  It was scary.  I laid on my horn but kept right on a going!

I was doing some prep work for today's show when I came across this article from Insure about the states with the worst drivers.  Idaho comes in at #1 but wouldn't you know -- Utah is at #10.  The explanation they give is kind of interesting.  One of the things they point out is that the drivers don't signal because they don't want anyone to know what their next move will be.  The driver last night didn't signal, he just cut right over.

To a point I get it, it's hard driving in unfamiliar territory.  It can be nerve wracking but dude, your truck is about four times the size of my Impala and when I think about dying that's not how I want to go!  I'm just saying maybe you could be a little more considerate the next time you need to get over at the last minute.

What has been your worst experience with a rude driver?
