MrsHar has crashed her car into trash cans twice in the past two months. She'll be driving down residential streets (speeding, of course) and BAM! She plows right into them.

The one yesterday, she said, "came out of nowhere". WTF?

Now I gotta get the passenger-side view mirror re-attached/replaced. Eventually, we'll get the right side of the rear bumper fixed from when the wall at the mall parking lot hit her last month...

She has to go to traffic school for a speeding ticket she got about a month ago (as she was being pulled over, she got me on my cell phone and asked me to talk to the cop -- I laughed and said, "What the hell do you want me to say to him?!").

Do y'all thinks she's:

a) angry at me for some reason?

b) trying to wreck the car to get a new one?

c) just a typically distracted female driver who never played a team sport and has less-than-ideal "court sense" about where things are in relation to where she is?

d) all of the above?

She still maintains that -- like Rainman -- she's an "excellent" driver.

I would say C#, although I'd drop the female part. People in general dont pay as much attention as they should while behind the wheel.

A good friend of mine is in the hospital right now because a truck turned right into his bike trying to pull onto a side street to fast.

I hope she's not playing with her phone or something... if so she's been lucky so far and needs to think about it...

or it could just be the woman thing..

The car can be repaired with hemp.

Most women are **** drivers and I blame their Fathers. Does your wife use cruise control on the interstate? Most women do not, therefore they use 25% more gas AND their speed goes up and down creating a dangerous situation. My mother will constantly vary her speed until someone tries to pass her. Then she will subconsciously speed up to keep pace with the poor **** trying to pass her. Drives me nuts.

You should start a reality show, detailing how bad women drivers are.

Maybe she's just in a big hurry from trying juggle all her affairs at once. There is great stress associated with juggling men and it must be too much for her to handle and she loses concentration.

Or, those freakin' walls and trash cans are really out to get her. Remember, if everyone IS out to get you, you are not paranoid........

I'm not certain about driving into trash cans, but it's a scientific fact that the "Y" chromosome is required for parallel parking.

Could be an extension of that?

Or maybe she had hemp for breakfast.

It's both nutritious and a great laxitive.

#8 - cruise control doesn't save THAT much gas, for one. For another, unless you're traveling really long distances, cruise control is annoying as hell.

Because of other drivers doing what you said your mother does (it ain't just her, brother) you have to either change lanes a lot or turn the cruise on and off.

Too much of a bother.

I only use cruise control when I'm driving a motorhome.

So I can go to the fridge and grab a beer or two...

MACS...true...but I bet you are capable of maintaining a steady speed. A lot of people can't for some reason.
