You are not in fast and the furious

[Nonstop_Death]

This happened awhile back, but I still remember the main details.

While I was waiting for the bus, I watched a semi turn a corner. Nothing special, happens all the time because they're heading to a nearby store to drop off stuff.

However, some driver in a car that has seen better days drives up to the semi and then tries to drive right under the trailer.

Due to having to slow down, the Semi driver quickly stopped. So did the driver when they realized that trying to go under the trailer would smash the roof and windshield right off their car.

The driver then quickly backed up and drove away like a bat outta hell, probably because they embarrassed themselves in front of everyone there. Either that, or a possible passenger who was laughing their ass off at the driver for 'wussing out' even if it mean risking their lives.

I suspect it was either a teenager trying to imitate something they saw in the fast and the furious movies, or some old lady who thought she could try it to save time on driving.

Maybe he just reeeeally wanted a convertible, and nobody ever explained to him that it doesn't quite work that way >_>

Reminded me of something I saw one summer a while ago here in My Hometown: a semi trying to turn a tight right corner onto the city's main downtown street. It had to, of course, swing as wide as possible to make it around the corner without going up over the curb and onto the sidewalk.

And some idiot in a tiny little car decided, "Hey, I can just drive right past him on his right-hand side!"

Then the semi swung right in an attempt to straighten out ...

*SQUOOSH*

It would've been interesting listening to the car's driver trying to explain that to their insurance company.

I've seen idiots try to do that with school buses. Seriously folks, there's a reason why the bus is slowing down. The driver is trying to make sure that the other lane is clear before they attempt to go around a tight corner. Passing them in the right lane is a *guaranteed* way to have a bad day.
