Today, I was teaching my daughter how to drive. We were passing by a merge lane; I told her to slow down and let a green car merge in front of us. She said, "Fuck the green car" and sped up, colliding with it. Apparently she didn't know that would happen. FML

Today, I took my daughter out driving to practice for her road test. I told her to make a left into a parking lot. She missed the 30-foot wide entrance, but not the two-foot wide tree. FML

Today, I took my driving test. As I was about to turn at a green light, a car sped toward us from the other direction, running a red light. My instructor failed me because I stopped to avoid getting rammed. Apparently I should have kept going, because it was my right of way. FML

Today, while in the car with my mom, she gave me a lecture about how bad of a driver I am. During that process she ran a red light and hit a car. FML

Today, I took my 15 year old daughter driving. I yelled at her for not going safely around corners. On the way home, while demonstrating how to drive right, I went around a corner and hit a cement truck. FML

Today, I stopped at a red light, when I noticed the car in front of me was in reverse. I honked at the driver, hoping he'd realize and place the car in drive. He thought the light turned green and immediately backed into me. FML

Today, my mom was driving with my brothers and sister in the back seat. She was turned around talking to us, when my sister told my mom that she missed the light. She ran it, then screamed at us about not paying attention and noticing your surroundings. FML

Today, I saw a woman still texting on her phone as she started to drive away when the light turned green. I made sure to stare her down and give her a dirty look because she wasn't paying attention to driving. She laughed as I rear-ended the car in front of me. FML

Today, I watched as the teenage neighbor girl tried to parallel-park between me and my wife's cars. She was doing pretty well until she backed into mine, got scared, hit the accelerator and ran into my wife's. FML

Today, while I was driving, I saw my driving instructor from high school walking on the sidewalk. As I waved to him, I rear-ended the car in front of me. Guess I really showed him how much I learned from him. FML

Today, while in the drive-through for Taco Bell, I hit the car behind me after forgetting my car was in reverse. It was in reverse because I was worried the old lady in front of me was going to forget she was in reverse. She didn't. FML

And that's when you reply, "**** getting you a driver's license."

That, my friend, is a fine example of "YOLO." Or more accurately, of natural selection.

People like that are the reason why I was never able to get my license. I was always too nervous to drive after some entitled shit ran a stop sign and nearly totaled Dad's car. Especially because once Dad convinced me to give it another try, I got run off the road by some **** in a truck. I thought red cars were supposed to be highly visible... Needless to say, I've not gotten behind the wheel since. Two near-accidents while trying to learn to drive at 16. I'm in my early 20's now. And truthfully, I don't give a shit if I never drive again.

While what she did was not wise, the car merging should have payed attention to her by seeing if (s)he needed to slow down and wait for her to pass or if (s)he could speed up in front of her. Sorry that happened, OP. Edit: I guess it depends on where you live, though.

Op & and a lot YOU people need to go back to driving school, she should NOT have not sped up OR slowed down, She should have maintained speed and let the car merging MERGE.
