Ok, so I was riding home from work, and was going down a two lane road. There was a CVS pharmacy on the left, with an entrance coming out onto the road I was on. There was a young girl (maybe 19) waiting to turn left, to go the direction I was going. So I see this, and I was sure she saw me, but slowed down a little anyway, just in case. Well, she didn't see me (or didn't care), and pull out right as I was passing, and tried to go into my lane (where I was), so I started blaring the horn, because I was anticipating this, and she swerved into the oncoming lane, which luckily didn't have any oncoming traffic in it. So she lowed down, and merged behind me, almost hitting the truck behind me. 50 feet later, she turns right into a neighborhood.
So yeah, people suck.

Instead of daddy buying his little girl a brand new car, he should buy her a big steel Ford sedan with reflectors all over and a big sign on top that reads "WATCH OUT!".
Teen boys are even worse...they dont have any more skills than the girls but they think they are road kings and drive like raving lunatics. Of course they aren't on the cellphone as much as the girls, so I guess its a tradeoff.

I think I'm offended. I was a teen driver for a number of years, and always thought I was great. I could drive, eat a big mac and hold my drink all at the same time.
In rush hour traffic none-the-less.
Of course I'm generalizing from a single example here, but everyone does that. At least I do.
