Idiots...

There was a guy drving down 59South this morning and he missed the 610 exit that he needed. So, what does he do?

Well, instead of waiting for the next exit and simply turning around there, like most people would have done, he decides to turn around on the freeway and head back the other way against traffic.

Needless to say, this did not end well for him.

Idiot.

*edit*

Whoops, 59, no 288.

And the area where he was at, it takes a while before there is another exit... but still, its idiocy.

Turn around? Wow. People here just back up... a mile down the shoulder.

Most houstonians dont know what the "R" means on the gear shift. And HPD might frown on that particular manuever.

Plus, most people here use the shoulder as a regular lane...

Man, that sucks. Where is the order? Where is the law?

One time I saw a police car travelling backwards down the shoulder, only he was chasing two dudes (who were on foot... idiots!) instead of going back to get to a missed exit. That was kind of weird.

heh. My Dad backed up an on-ramp once. 'Course, it was in the wee hours of the morning, and no one was around.

Breaking the law, breaking the law!

Every morning on the way to school, when I am stuck in the morning traffic there is this one motorcycle that just flys right down the middle of the two lines of traffic until he gets to his exit. One day I want to, accidentally, open my car door as he comes... oops.

Why would you do that and possibly waste a perfectly good door?

A friend of mine once successfully fought a ticket he got after a cyclist struck his car door (and rocketed over it to the pavement beyond) while he was opening it.

Which isn't necessarily anything special, but the biker didn't hit the broad side of the door, he hit the end, just as it started to open.

IT HAPPENED AGAIN!!!!

This morning there was a wreck on I10 headed west out of town. So, what does a small band of 18 Wheelers decide to do?

They hop on the HOV lane to get around the traffic, one small problem with this.

The HOV lane was opened for traffic headed the oposite way!!!!! These 7 idiots blocked traffic for several hours until they could clear the road and get them moved out.

What's really stupid is when people hold up traffic by waiting to merge in until the last minute, and then complain that the city should add another lane.
