Drivers??
Today I'm on a street with 2 lanes in each direction traveling in the curb or slow lane and stopped at a light. As the light turned green the car in the fast lane one car behind me saw a slight gap which he took advantage of to change lanes and get in front of me. He moved fast and there was so little room that I had to quickly move to the right to keep from losing my left front fender; had I hit the brakes I'm sure I would have been rear-ended. I scraped the curb and of course damaged the RTF wheel (the lanes are very narrow). I wanted to follow and catch this guy and show him what he caused, but I thought better of it since he looked like a low-life and less than half my age. I used to like driving. That's why I bought an A6 instead of an Avalon or the like.
I'm having it fixed this week. Maybe I got off lucky.

Silicon Valley drivers are just nutty. A friend and I call each other every couple of days, and our
first topic is always the latest boneheaded we've witnessed and close calls we've had.
Kind of makes me want a front and rear view camera in the car.

Re: I would have gone after the guy and gave him a piece of my mind, or my fist, whichever came firs
That would only get you in trouble. Had a case in town a while back where a female in a big SUV purposely blocked a pedestrian walkway to a guy pushing a stroller and refused to move. He punched the door. Guess who got cited? The world is upside down.

Lady standing in middle of street cursing...
I pulled along side of her in the other left turn lane and asked if she's OK. She picked up her drivers side mirror and tells me a jerk just drove away after whacking it off at 25 MPH. She got pissed off when I warned her of the traffic coming at her. Hhmm, stand next to your stopped car in an intersection with a green light or pull to the side of the road? I wonder if she would have ran after the car that hit her if it scratched her paint or made a dent?
