Re: Honda Civic
Steve, read this:
Some of you guys may find the following story somewhat humorous. Monday
afternoon I was driving this little '89 Civic LX down I-40 East on a solid
sheet of ice. You couldn't even see any concrete at all on certain stretches
of the highway that the state hadn't scraped or salted yet. In fact, it had
snowed about 4 inches first, and then we had about another 1 inch of sleet
and freezing rain on top of that. I was running about 45 m.p.h. in order to
try and put some distance between myself and the ignorant redneck that was
TAILGATING me in a '96 Chevy Blazer 4X4. In the slow lane too--I might add.
Well, I could see in my rear view mirror that the Blazer driver was all
hacked off wanting to pass me. So, he whips it over to his left really,
really quick and gunned it simultaneously. Needless to say that he went into
a broad slide, and then he whipped it back to the right to try and
straighten his vehicle out. Well, when he did that, the Blazer did a
complete 360 and he ended up going down into a ditch backwards! I gave him
the peace sign in my rear mirror and chuckled as I continued down I-40 in
the '89 Civic. In a very stable manner I might add. Since the guy had
tailgated me for about 7 miles straight, I figured that he got what he
deserved for driving so recklessly in that type of inclement weather. BTW,
the little Civic was like a snowmobile in those icy weather conditions. It
never even came close to slowing down or spinning. Not the first time. I
passed 9 accident scenes with highway patrolmen already there on my way to
work Tuesday morning. 9 out of those 9 accidents involved SUVs that had
wiped out with apparently no other vehicle(s) involved.
