Thanks all for your well wishes! I am glad that me and my baby are okay and no actual collision occurred!! Which motivates me now that I have to learn defensive driving.....

Really, is that right? That's unbelievable, and just perpetuates the stereotype about Azn female drivers!! Well, now you know an Azn female who drives a 6MT PW 370 and proud of it!! I think I'm a good driver, but I guess you won't see proof unless we meet on the road....

Asian females stuck in BMWs. Why does that not surprise me? Funny, I've driven an M3 before, but I never wanted to own a BMW. I've always had my eye on the Z. OKay, and the Aston Martin.

Unfortunately for me, every accident or near accident has been is was caused by a female driver. The worst in my area are the moms in the SUV's or Mini Vans that do 50 MPH in the passing lanes, don't check their blind spots, don’t use blinkers, and flick people the finger when someone returns the favor. The worst part is it’s usually a car full of kids....Then again, I guess I'd be pissed at the world too if I had to drive mini-van. Ohhhhhhhh! Just kidding.....  |
OUCH on the mini-van comment! So hurt! But yeah, soccer mums. It's all good. Driving's a skill, just like cooking, photography, and everything else. You can't have it all. If you did, people will be jealous!!

I half wish I had gotten hit, kid was driving a brand new Audi A8, I'm pretty sure his parents are loaded.
