I was driving normally at 55MPH, in a school zone with no lights flashing indicating to reduce speed so I continue my speed. When all of a sudden a lumina comes flying out of a parking lot into the street and cuts into both lanes almost hitting me, I swing and I continue driving same speed. Coming up is a corner to turn right or continue straight, at the corner there is a school bus waiting to cross to go the opposite way, also in the opposite lanes there is a brand new Camry waiting to go into that the street where the bus is waiting. Well anyway, Im going straight and in the left lane, the lumina is in the right lane about 1/2 car ahead. All of a sudden the lumina guns it I was like aww crap something is gonna happen and its not good, all of a sudden the camry STARTS MAKING THE CORNER, cutting right in front of us!!! Me like natural wasnt speeding and slowed down to let him make his turn(which was not smart) Then I was like oh damn, and the lumina smokes his tires trying to stop but doesnt make it, his car slids sideways and rams the camry into the school bus at the corner, parts fly everywhere. That was an amazing site!!!

Everyone was fine, the old man was just sitting in the car(probably cusing himself out), while the front of his car was under the bus, and the lumina guy was looking in horror.

If only he was smart enough to swing the other way!!! Oh never mind it would have been Maxima vs. Malibu(sorry I was thinking the wrong car before), I got out of the way of the flying parts really quick. I tried to see how I do on my way home, I slammed the brakes to see how quick I could stop and WOW!!! This thing has got some brakes, the road is marked up now though

Almost recked my brothers 240(three weeks old) yesterday. Some Dumb lady in the lane next to me decides, hmmm...let me change lanes...I swerve in opposite lanes of traffic, and I roll the window down and she slowed down. She was 3 inchs away!!
