Going down the highway this morning in the snow, watched a guy come on from an onramp, hit the gas, spin out, and take out a sign and one of those huge light poles. Came down in the middle of the road. Too late to stop. Can't go around it, can't go under it, gotta go over it.

So I did

God i love my jeep

Last night I almost plowed into a Mercedes's who cut across from left turn lane all the way over to mine which was 2 lanes away pretty sure I slid when I swerved and stopped in the left turn lane. And oh yea this is happened after about a few hours of rain so the roads were wet. Thank god i got my brakes fixed only hours before. God I hate stupid drivers.
