Default Minivan "kill"

Going down a hill in moderate traffic. Someone a couple cars in front of me slams on the brakes, the car right in front of me jerks into the emergency lane skidding tires, I brake normally (at least it felt that way to me) and an older ford minivan is skidding sideways in my rearview mirror. It then slides off the side of the road and into a ditch. It was LOL hilarious.

Almost saw two "kills" in one!

I hope that awful woman driver loses her license.

What have we learned today? Cross drilled rotors are GOOD. Minivan drivers are BAD.

I had no where to go even if I did freak out, too much traffic. I did laugh my *** off after I pulled away though.

Why the BS flag?

Boom, nothing but ditch.

If I had a minivan, it would be a honda oddessey. They run 15's stock, right up there with a civic Si!
