I realize you just totalled your other car, are you trying to total this one too? Man up, and move over, afterall that's what you would want him to do if you were wanting to cruise at 90mph.
BTW what I said was harsh and was meant to be harsh, behavior like that will get your *** killed.
slow down there genious, Maybe there was a reason I didn't move over?? Oh wait, maybe the right lane was full? did you think about that?? Also, there was a car in front of me which was going about 75mph. and No, I will not get in trouble if somebody rear ends me, there is a thing called "following too close" and when somebod hits you from behind, they are at fault. Unless I slam on my brakes intentionally for that person to hit me and get killed. I was simply showing my brake lights, pretty much equal to letting the gas off.
i love how people are just assuming bullshit here and there and act like god. This cop was riding my a$$ period! and I didnt like that fact and wanted him to back off BEFORE he somehow hits me. Well, at the time i didnt even know he was a cop, thought it was some a$$hole messing around or in a very hurry.
I have been driving since 1998 and I have never been in a two car accident before. Only accident I have ever been was this "minor" sliding into a curb deal adn I havent had a single ticket for the last 4 years. I think it is pretty damn safe to say, I am safe driver.
