Auto: Isuzu Trooper V6
Scene: Red light where two lanes turn into one.
I've got the whole family in the car, PLUS all our stuff from my wife's 20-year reunion weekend (mine was the previous weekend). I guess that the Isuzu thought that he'd just roll past me at the light, he was doing the 'slo mo' approach. He timed the light well, but I was still even with him at mid-intersection, and by the time we merged, I was at the speed limit and let off. He was behind me, just coming out of the intersection, and when I looked back a quarter of a mile later, he was just getting to the speed limit. I don't even think the kids noticed, and I doubt that my wife would have if I hadn't muttered, "No way, buddy!" Just too much weight in the car last night to really make it a good kill, but a kill is still a kill.
