"Luck be a lady tonight..."


Can I even begin to vent about how much I hate driving in crappy weather?? The start of the drive to class tonight had already freaked me out beyond belief. There was mad traffic immediately and when it finally cleared up, I find out it's because every single car had slowed down to check out the accident. Apparently some huge SUV was flipped over in the grassy-ditch median. Uhm just by seeing that, I drove even slower. You would think that everyone would have been more cautious, but noooo...you still have penii-brained drivers who think it won't happen to them and decide to fly by you going like 80 miles an hour in the pouring piss storm!

Well of course that bothered me during the whole car ride thinking that could happen to me. As I get closer to the bridge, I have to stay in the left side cause I need to go through EZ-Pass. Ok, I so know that the #1 for hydroplaning is to not step on your breaks! But seriously when you feel your car so outta control, your natural reaction is to brake. Well even though I was only going 30 mph, my car decided to hydroplane, I freaked out BUT lightly tapped my break...luckily my car flew over towards the right lane, and of thank goodness there were no cars around me. There was this other car way behind me who must have seen my car fly over the lanes. Well I was just glimpsing at my mirror and I noticed that when that car got to that same area, it also hydroplaned. Cept, that car flew left, straight into the cement walls! Can I explain how scary that was to see? I mean seriously, all I could think about was that could have been me, I just lucked out that I spun towards the right and not the left. Scary.
