Today, a stoplight turned yellow as I was approaching it. I was about to go through but saw a cop, panicked, and slammed on the brakes. I ended up in the middle of the intersection and had to reverse. Soon the light turned green, and I stepped on the gas. My car was still in reverse. FML

You're an idiot. It's perfectly legal to continue on if you saw the light TURN yellow especially.
The cop probably didn't give a fuck. And you're the kind of person that I want to run over when I drive.

Plus, *I* am a female. I can drive, thank you very much.
