I pulled out of my driveway this morning like I do every morning. Coming up the to the first stop sign I noticed this black Honda Civic coming up behind me. I come to a complete stop since this area is a school area and police have been known to wait near the stop sign. As I pull away from the stop sign I notice the Civic still within inches of my rear bumper as if the driver had not stopped at the stop sign. Where are the police when you need them?
Any way, approaching Dufferin the light changes to red. I pull my car over to the right light and angle it towards the right like you are supposed to and wait for an opening in the traffic. I notice in my driver\'s side mirror that the black Civic, also wanting to make a right turn is in the same lane as I am but on the left side positioned as if the driver is going to go around me. Then the honking starts. The signal had just turned yellow for the southbound traffic but this driver really, really wanted to get moving. Up come goes my finger and I pull out onto Dufferin southbound.
With the black Civic still within inches of my rear bumper I pulled into the right turn lane to make a turn at the next lights. The Civic is still taking up my entire rear view mirrow. I made the right turn and pulled over a few meters beyond the intersection meaning for the Civic to go around me. The dumb ass in the Civic stopped behind me as well. Enraged, I unbuckled my seatbelt and got out to confront the driver. I opened my door and glared at the driver and told them to go ahead. The driver simply waved and pulled ahead and drove into the Tim Horton\'s.
Thinking about it after the fact, I knew I could have really blown my top and started spewing profanities once I got out of my car. But the driver was a woman and lives just a few houses down from me. Maybe I\'ll just send the a few glaring looks the next time I see her. Either that or just pull over the next time I see a black, busted up, lowered Civic with purple ricer bulbs in my rearview mirror.
