OK, today I made the mistake of driving from South City Campus to Redwood Campus (those from Salt Lake already feel my pain). Getting onto 21st South there weren't many problems, but as soon as I got onto the 201... oh dear God.
As soon as I'm on I'm greeted by Mr. Idaho... he merged on the Redwood entrance... got up to 40mph to merge, cutting me off no less. Then this driver exited onto 215 south (why oh why did I have to follow him)... he took a 25 mph curve at 15mph and still couldn't hold his lane. On the 215 he finally accelerated to a top speed of 45mph... I was FINALLY able to get around him when we meet Mr. Aggressive for no apparent reason. This gentleman decided that he just had to get around me... I do not know why, he ended up going slightly slower than I had been going... I do know though that he damned near hit me twice while passing. Then on 47th South I thought I was safe... no, I damned near got hit by not one, but two people doing illegal u-turns. Getting onto campus was no picnic either... apparently the sign "cross traffic does not stop" translates to "yes they will, just go anyway"
