Default Decided to go for a drive and...

I decide to go for a drive and see whats happening at the usual Sat. night hot spots. I get about 2 miles from my house, sitting at a light getting ready to turn left onto hwy 94, light turns green and start to roll, look to my left and this old dude in a large 70s oldsmopile decides the stoplight doesnt exist.
I stop before I move very far and he stops way out in the intersection after he sees me rolling out. Had I not looked over, he would have eaten my driverside door. Before getting to the next light a SRT4 rolls by making sure I knew he was there. We pull up to the light, he does nothing as I roll out. O well. I make my way down to where a car cruise was closing up and get behind a hugger orange Camaro SS convert. Going up a slight hill, he pulls away, soon as I crest the hill, I see him on the side of the road and large section of concrete missing in the middle of the street with a manhole in the middle of it. No cones, barrels, road construction sign, no warning at all anywhere. Thankfully I saw the hole in time. He did not. I roll by and stop and as I do I see a busted windshield and airbags blown out. He said he only drives it a few times a year and just got it out tonight. Mint 99 SS, 1 0f 8 optioned the way his was.

My friend ripped the trans pan off in the same situation. Then we had to push it back to another guys house all while dodging traffic. It was fun! They did replace his trans pan, though.
