Collateral Damage

Published June 2, 2009 | By Don Pedro

Holy crap there were nearly two accidents right in front of me as I was coming into work this morning. Some guy getting off the highway almost rear-ended a stopped car (complete with loud squealing of tires and burning rubber). Then someone decided to change lanes and almost got sucked up into the wheel well of a moving truck. That turn signal is just for show, it really has no practical function.
