I do what I can to flatter the amazing people. And shun the not so cool ones. :P

Seticus, I would have called the cops, but I didn't get the license number. I saw him signaling, but I had the right of way (because there was no turn signal).

What is sad is that this was right next to Long Beach courthouse.

Hey, I'll pay you 1 gold coin if you do it again, and this time, get it on the video.

But damn, Elara, get this on the video and I believes the producers of the movies would be all over you. You would be the next Super Stunt Woman (and just imagine how much money would you make.) Hell, get yourself a gun and you would be like the next famous actoress.

Well, aside from my surprised reaction, I'm relieved that you're okay. But you should have called the cops or something even through you almost got into trouble because of a guy breaking a law, but then again, people SHOULD be aware of what other people are signaling, even through they are changing or not.

But, as least you and Vemon are safe.

Whoa, that's totally freaking awesome!

I wish I could drive....and I wish I could drive like you! You've goit mad skills when it comes to not getting your car wrecked. And for that, as well as all the other cool stuff you've ever done, I admire you, and you are my hero.

I'm glad to hear your both ok, that would have been horrible. I would have freaked out in that sort of situation.

The worst situations I've been in is when driving in an underground carpark, having young kids just run out in front of me

Coming back from Shipwreck auditions last Friday, I nearly got in an accident. The intersection of Ocean Blvd and Magnolia has no left turn signal. I was coming across the bridge from the Queen Mary (bridge becomes Magnolia), light was green for me. There were cars turning from the opposite direction, but it was clear when I entered the intersection... until a large pick-up decided that it would turn left in front of me. Realizing his folly all too late, he slammed on the breaks. I hit mine too, but at 10 feet away I would have hit him head on, so I swerved to the right. Missed him and the curb by less than a foot each as I fish-tailed in front of him and straightened out to head down Magnolia. Lost control of the car because of the speed and fish-tailing, so I fish-tailed some more (though not as wide, kinda a wavy line). Stayed on my side of the street, regained control of the car, and kept going. Not a scratch.

Venomouslobster was in the car with me, after his momentary shock passed he praised me all the way to Denny's. I was shaking like crazy once the shock wore off, but I'm proud of myself. Reflexes took over and I saved both our lives as well as my car. Eris loved me then. Sure, less dramatic versions of that happened on the way to auditions (same intersection, guy stopped with my path still clear and waved apologetically) and after Denny's (guy on Atlantic tried to make U turn in front of me, backed out of way and also waved sorry). The next morning a minivan tried to merge into my line with me in their blind spot... so I have been rather paranoid since then.

My response to Venomouslobster's praise: "And you criticized my driving."

Edited for typos, since I am half asleep.
