Today, I stopped at a red light. I noticed the car in front of me had their reverse lights on. I thought to myself, "Meh, that person must know. They wouldn't do that." The light turned green. Turns out they didn't. Nor did they have insurance. FML

Damn that sucks...the first time i ever drove i did that in a residential neighborhood except i was the one in reverse....and the car behind me was a brand new Mercedes SL55. He pulled up very close behind me cus he was very impatient. I floored it...how i didnt hit him i dont know, i guess i must have spidy reflexes, but i came to a stop about 5 inches away from him.

You do realize that failing to avoid an accident - which your entry says you did, is a citable offense, right?

Never underestimate the predictability of stupidity.

I almost did that once... backed into someone at an intersection, that is.

#5 it's not illegal to drive without insurance, you just have to pay an "uninsured fee". so basically you're paying for having no insurance.

i love that you just said meh.

Well your insurance will cover your car. So you don't need to worry.

#68, most of the time if you're stopped at a red light you're surrounded by cars. How was he supposed to prevent this accident, back into the car behind him?

Learn to drive defensively. I've seen people sitting with their reverse lights on at red lights, and I'm smart enough to not get too close to them, but keep a car length between us. YDI

He may not have noticed the backup lights were on until he got behind the person. Though I'm a little confused why he didn't just beep his horn.
