I went to the game last night.

Was painful to watch.

Levi, I wouldn't call it a "roll"...they have escaped at least twice against very bad teams.

They did play 4 games in 17 days and lost 2 major starters.

Next 6 weeks are brutal (Chicago, Denver, @Indy, Det, @GB, @SD). Personally I would be happy with
4-2 out of that schedule. Anything better than that would be a "roll".

I would not want to be a passenger in such a car though. The fun is in driving. But still incredible

Most people will probably like the idea of an electronic chauffeur.

Okay, so...

that is the marks from her FRONT wheel (pictures coming in this thread)... so clearly she knew i was in the lane.

I was driving on 295 southbound out from Baltimore (just past the stadiums). i was behind this lady in the center lane. The left lane was full. I looked and moved to the right lane to pass her and accelerated a little bit. When i notice her starting to move over into the lane i'm already in. I honk and slow down a bit. she keeps coming to my lane, at this time she had slowed down enough that my driver's window has a clear view of her face and i'm looking right at her into her eyes honking. She keeps coming and hits me. she doesn't back off at all, she just keeps her car into mine.

I then slam on the brakes and keep honking to get her to pull over. she doesn't so i get in front of her and take my foot off the gas and slowly lower myu speed to get her to pull over. i think she's pulling over so i go to the shoulder and she passes me and goes to the next exit. She gets out of her car and yells at me saying its my fault because i was "driving like an ass and i wasn't in the lane", but i was going only a little above the speed limit and she clearly hit me on purpose. Then i call 911.

I decided to follow her. and keep talking on the phone with the operator. Then, after a whole bunch of bs with the cops and who has juristiction (another story that i'll tell later.. basically i had to talk to state, county and city). the city cops finally show up. I tell them what happened and then they go and talk to her. the come back and say they can only exchange information and thats it. i say, "but i had to follow her here... that's fleeing the seen of the accident". they wouldn't do anything.

I have called my insurance, and they can battle it. all i know is that if i need to pay my deductible or my insurance rates go up, i will be suing the company she works for as she was in the company car.

had a long convo with my insurance. have an estimate tomorrow and then i'll drop my car off at my preferred shop, not theirs.
