The other driver asked my son why he stopped for a green light. Also, the impact caused my son's eyeglasses to get knocked off, the other driver asked my son why he was driving without his glasses on. Luckily the police gave the other guy a ticket and his insurance covered all costs. No one was injured.
I don't understand when people won't cop to being at fault. I treat people as I would like to be treated and quite honestly it has ended up with me being shafted more often than not. But I believe it all ends up even in the end, or so I hope.

Put some stickers on it and you got yourself a Cup car that just did 500 laps at Bristol.

OK, I am almost embarrassed to admit that I know what that is from.
Should I pinstripe Cole above the drivers door?
