After I made the exit from the highway into my town, I proceeded to make a left turn into a local street when 4 teens ran out into the street without looking and bouncing basketballs. As soon as I saw, I stomped on the brakes. As soon as they saw, they made a fast dash. Two dashed to the sidewalk and the other two dashed to the middle of the road on the yellow line.

I apologize in advance for all the Asian drivers if I put out a bad name and I would like to announce that I am not the typical driver. Yes, if you ride with me, you are signing your life away to me for the duration of the ride.
I say this time wasn't my fault because those teens just ran out playing ball. I did stop in time and no one was hurt.

I'm glad noone got hurt
Don't cry, don't regret and don't blame
Weak find the whip, willing find freedom
Towards the sun, carry your name
In warm hands you are given
Ask the wind for the way
Uncertainty's gone, your path will unravel
Accept all as it is and do not blame
God or the Devil

see, this type of stereotype doesn't bother me at all because it only applies to females drivers that drive expensive cars. pears, i dunno what happened to you.
raverboy...this is just my perspective on the situation...

I took 20 hours of drivers ed plus 50 hours practice driving with my father before I took the roads by myself. Originally Posted by misombra

Anyways, I don't think I did anything wrong in this situation. It was just bad luck. The teens running out into the street right as my light turned green does not make me a bad driver. If anything, I was good with reacting to the situation and stopping.Last edited by Pears; 16-07-08 at 07:26 AM.
