onday at 7 am at a local yacht club.
 
Heard that on the news this morning. Said driver saw a spider on her lap and panicked.
 
That sucks but could have been worse.

I had a hummingbird fly through my car right in front of my face and I almost crashed into my house.

Shit definitely happens.
 
No one was hurt. Not having any luck uploading a 3GPP video.


The perfect, if not improbable, reason to keep those insurance payments current.

I had problems up loading files to this site last month. Not being the tech wizard I would like to be; I just gave up. Might have something to do with one's level of membership. Anyway, hope you have better luck
 
Visit south Florida.... you will be eating your words lol


...where turn signals are a sign of weakness. I thought that was a joke the first time I heard it, but then I realized that it does indicate an opportunity to cut you off. If you DO use a signal, you give it one blink after you've cut someone off, to make sure they realize, "yeah, I just did that."

...where exiting from the nearest lane shows a lack of courage and no sense of adventure.

...where the speed delta on any given street is the speed limit. If it says 55, someone needs to go 25 for every vehicle going 70.
 
There's aggressive drivers and there are bad drivers. I'm from the Boston aggressive driving school though I do use my blinkahs. I live in VA now. BAD drivers. The idiots think it's ok to pull over in the center median routinely!?!?! Uh, I'm outta gas, think I'll pull to the left. Ooops, flat tire. I'll pull to the left to change it. Grrr.... lol
Spider in the lap for this one? No excuse. Pull her license or at least give her a 30 day suspension. She could have killed someone for being an irrational moron.
 
Looks like that car didn't just roll off from the parking are, it was airborne for a bit to get into that position. I wonder how fast it was going to clear the water and land on the boat?
 
The boat may have originaly been "bow in" in the slip and paralell to the pontoon with a finger pier between. Car pushed boat back with impact.

JUST MY GUESS.
 
I know it sucks for the driver and boat owner, but is there ever really a bad day at the marina?
