Gen. 5 SE collides with Gen. 5 SE???

I saw the other Black Camry Gen. 5 SE to my right come flying up to the stop light from the college's side road. I had the green light and was moving on through the intersection in the right lane. To my dismay and amazement he decided to not stop and cut hard into my lane. With minimal distance to spare I swerved immediately to the left but ...

...thank goodness I do not have to attach a picture of two lovely Camrys intangled in a bitter twisted heap of sorrow. He is the only other Black Camry Gen. 5 SE in town and I hope to meet up with him someday in more pleasant and controled circumstances.

It was a very close call, plus I had just cleaned and waxed the entire car that same day. I am still recovering jittery knees.

Read the event carefully. No attached pic of entanlged Camrys, therefore no damage. Just me shaken up and mad.

Driving is sure dangerous. Maybe I expected more from a Camry driver.

What is up with some of these drivers?? Today some lady in an Accord was really impatient. She was in front of me in the right lane, got impatient and moved into the left lane. Decided that car wasn't moving fast enough and cut back into my lane in front of me..except that my front end was next to her car now! I stepped on my brakes and honked my horn. The other day a lady in her BMW decided she didn't want to be in the lane that was turning left and simply changed lanes right in front of me (without signaling) so I again honked my horn hoping that would tell her there was a car next to her so she'd be more careful next time.

I should really stop honking my horn when these crazy drivers cut me off because one day they'll go nuts and hunt me down - but I figure I have a better chance of avoiding an accident if I honk my horn, and the other driver in turn stops doing whatever they're doing that would cause an accident.
