Last night as Greg and I were driving to go pick of Cafe Rio we almost got in 3 wrecks! (Greg wouldn't never admit that. He says he was in total control the entire time.) One happened in a round-about by our house. We were going through it and a dumb girl assumed we were exiting the circle when in reality we were not. She slammed on her brakes and I screamed. Accident avoided.
The next one happened when we were approaching an intersection probably going between 45-50 mph. The car next to us was doing the same thing. Well, the light turned yellow, but we both kept going because we had plenty of time to make it. Another dumb girl decided that yellow meant she can automatically turn left even if two cars are approaching her very fast. Once again, she slammed on her brakes and I screamed. Accident avoided.
The last one happened at Cafe Rio. Greg dropped me off to go pick up our order while he went to the bank. A car was just sitting on the side in the parking lot the whole time we were there. After I got out, Greg started to go around the "parked" car. Well, right when he was passing him the car suddenly decided it was ready to leave. Instead of moving forward slowly it pulled out right in front of him! This time both of them slammed on the brakes, and Greg laid down the horn for a while while I screamed in my head because I was around a lot of people. Accident avoided.
On the way home we were talking about how there are so many ridiculous drivers, especially in Utah! This is where the quote of the day comes in. Greg turns to me and says, "I am going to become some politician man, so I can make lots of laws against crappy drivers here. Then I will arrest all of the stupid ones!" Sure Greg. Good luck with that one!

I can only imagine...oh Greg.
i'm so glad you survived! sounds like the drivers in the CA...RETARDS!
It sounds as if your screaming helped "save the day!" I'm surprised that Greg's comment didn't include the well known "Andersen" word, "IDIOTA"!
Good thing Wes wasn't with you. He would have said "Don't scream." LOL! Screaming is what we girls do best, right ;)? I am glad you were saved from having an accident.
It's weird how no matter where you live, there are is always some stereotype for drivers. In Utah they're stupid. In Texas they're just plain mean. I can't tell you how many times people have almost run me off the road or won't let me switch lanes. I'm glad you guys were safe though and good luck Greg, we'll support you.
Stupid Drivers! Greg Kills me! Remember when you last came down, and I told greg how cute Ellie is and he thought I was commenting on his mane... Don't know why but I thought that was so funny.
PS Nixon is driving me CRAZY today.. He is so Grumpy!
I am sure when you were talking about crappy drivers in utah my name came up a couple times :)
That is so funny! Me and Greg are so much alike. In fact, Im pretty sure I have said the same exact thing. I miss you and want a special post of your face just for NARISSA KIKOLAUS! I will be watching for it:)love ya!
Oh by the way its me. I was helping my sister out with her blog and forgot to sign out!
I am so happy that I can FINALLY get on your blog from my home computer. It's fixed!! Your story is so funny..I'm glad all the accidents were avoided. And I would have screamed my head off too! Ellie is so dang cute!-Amber
Anything for Cafe Rio.
I'd risk my life for a pork salad with tomatillo ranch anyday.
