What were they thinking?

...because everyone believes they are ... Special!

Exiting the North Bound Dallas Tollway to the East Bound George Bush Tollway on a late Friday evening during rush hour. The P/U crossed over 2 lanes and the solid white lines so he could get to the next merge first :rolleyes:

Remedy? Don’t be in such a hurry to exit one Interstate to get on another that you almost cause an accident! :angry:

Have stories of your own? Send them and your pictures and they will be the next “What were they thinking”!

This is one of those all-too-common: "I've gotta exit" as they are on top of it and takes a near 90-degree turn.

high and mighty....arent those the guys that force you to pull to the side of the road because if you don't they wont be able to shave that 1/2 a second off their commute. come to think of it, we worry about mileage, they worry about time. I think some people have their heads in the wrong places.

Well, that truck is probably getting less than ten miles to the gallon. He'll pay for it at the pump.

If he doesn't have to pay for it at the body shop -- or the hospital!!!

That type of driving is very dangerous. :(

You guys have got to be the "fastest draw in Texas". Great pic. I am never able to get those good shots. This guy is way dangerous. I am just glad you guys weren't run off the road.

I am just glad you guys weren't run off the road.Sadly this is a common daily sight in all kinds of vehicles in North Texas...vulgar-looking swerve from a distance, and nerve-wracking up close as illustrated.
