[QUOTE="isuace, post: 474808, member: 14978"] The dumbest thing I have witnessed (twice) was people turning left or pulling out in front of me, seeing me, and freezing up and hitting the brakes. The first time I was coming down a long hill in rural Iowa and saw a guy in a red Cherokee on my right sitting at a stop sign. I got a funny feeling about it so I started slowing down. Just as I was afraid of, as soon as I got close to him he pulled out to go straight across, saw me, freaked, and hit the brakes. I hit my brakes, and locked up the rear (on my 97 shadow). All I can remember is seeing his front fender, last second I thought to myself "I can still make it around him". I let off the brakes and managed to make it around the front of his vehicle, outside of the white line....of the left lane on a two lane road....while screaming at him "Jesus Fucking Christ". To which he replied sheepishly "Sorry....". Second time was in town (Ames, IA). 4 lane split road through the middle of town, some joker turns left, sees me and another guy, hits the brakes. Me and the other guy both hit our brakes and luckily stop in time, and I'm just laying on my horn. The guy eventually comes to and gets the hell out of the road. [/QUOTE]
