Backing up the wrong way into a one way street = win

March 17th, 2008 Leave a comment Go to comments

To preface this post, I wish to make it clear that I never really had much faith in people. While most people argue whether or not people are inherently good or evil, I simply theorize the fact that people are inherently stupid.

This particular gentleman adds further proof to my theory. I was on my way to a hockey game, and was to pick up a teammate along the way. I was driving on 33rd Street on Drexel’s campus and was stopped at the stop sign at 33rd and Race. As I am at this stop sign, this particular gentleman decides to back up into 33rd Street from Race. He also made it a point to not notice me standing there. He also made it a point to ignore my honking and flashing. I’m sure you can guess what happened next….he backed up right into me. Good going dude!

Total damage to my car: $2026
My rental: Initially, I was given a Kia, which is about as uncool as you can get. The Kia then got a flat tire, and they weren’t able to fix it, so they gave me a replacement Dodge Charger. It is a V6 Charger, not the Hemi powered V8. It’s slow, and it handles like a brick with wheels. It also drinks gas like a Russian drinks vodka.

TLDR: people suck.
