Default What a Saturday...

I know this is nothing compared to other members on this board but....

Saturday coming home from a long day at work. Im on the highway and I hear this sound of a rock hitting my windshield I look up and sure enough there is now a decent size crack on my driver side windshield just above my inspection sticker. 5 years with a crack free windshield. Oh well Ill be getting it fixed tomorrow so the crack wont spread any further.

On top of that some Jack *** in a Camry decided to they wanted over three lanes just to exit and nearly hit my front end.

Needless to say I wasnt in a good mood when I got back from work.

I hate Houston traffic and Highways....

I have to change my mindset whenever I drive in Houston. I am normally a laid back driver, but I have to fuggin road-rage it the whole time I'm around there just to keep up with everybody else.

Houston traffic does suck. But what can we do? Just go with the flow

Cut me off and then flip me off when you realize you almost hit me? Oh, and you're driving a ******* Windstar?

It's gotten worse here too, we got a lot of "immigrants" here in DFW from the Katrina incident, plus with the economy sh** storm everyone here has started drinking more..

I went to visit my grandparents in Arkansas a couple weeks back and on the way home I was passing a flatbed semi hauling concrete steps and the crosswinds swept a piece of concrete or something off his flatbed and chipped my paint above my passenger side headlight then ricocheted and chipped my windshield..

My windshield has approx 7-8 tiny chips from rocks/etc being kicked up by semi's and I just bought this car 3 months ago. (luckily they are barely noticeable)
